I just don’t understand why the poster is getting a roast. I would not have done that but respect his rights to query. And I agree with Eutychus- the manager could have made an “executive” decision to accept 16 cents less.
CVS sucks in so many ways I wouldn’t be able to walk in to begin with, except that they’ve taken over all the other local drugstores around here.
Messy, Wal-Mart style appearance? Check.
Too many stand-up displays in the aisles making it hard to maneuver a cart? Check.
Not nearly as many of the odds and ends that you used to be able to count on the old store to have? Check.
Stupid-ass, individual queues for each cashier, so you always wind up in the slow line? Check.
Stupid-ass counter configuration that demeans you by making you unload, and then reload your basket–compared to the excellent, smart-ass system where the checker unloads and reloads, and pulls the cart straight through? Check.*
*(Didn’t Piggly Wiggly work out the revolutionary, pull-the-cart-through system around 1917? Why would anyone not do that now?)
