Friday I went to our local Wal-mart to buy a few things.. mostly a brisket to make THIS. My trip was uneventful.. I bought some groceries… and what I thought were 3 short sleeve T-shirts for myself. The T-shirts were all stacked on the same little kiosk thing in the same place. What I didn’t know until I got home was I mistakenly bought 2 tank tops and 1 T-shirt. If you’ve ever seen my arms you’d know I am not Michelle Obama. 😉 So I put them back in the sack to return them.
Here is my Walmart receipt… Do you see anything wrong with it?
This part is missing…
Remember how I said my trip was uneventful? Apparently I was wrong. It was my cashier’s first day. She mistakenly ripped my receipt.. So today when I went to return the shirts… my torn receipt became a “not valid” receipt.
I explain to the people in customer service that I have a receipt.. they tell me it’s not valid. I point at the receipt and say.. “Look here are the 2 tank tops!” I get the “I’m sorry it’s not valid.” Then she explains to me she can give me a gift card. Over and over in my head I’m thinking I have a receipt. I finally get a “customer service manager” to explain to me that I am missing apart of the receipt. (why the 1st chick didn’t do that I have no idea)
I told CSM what happened on Friday. She tells me that they don’t know if I bought those tank tops in the last 90 days or not (even though I just said I bought them Friday). I remind her that this is Kansas.. and we’ve had 22 inches of snow this last 90 days alone.. and perhaps Wal-mart in KANSAS doesn’t sell tank tops year round. While we were discussing Kansas and year round tank tops, I dug through my purse and found the torn end… they gave me my WHOLE $12.00 back.. and I left ticked off.
Here’s more information than you really wanted to know about me…
1. What was your favorite childhood television program? I loved “I Dream of Jeannie”… “Gilligan’s Island” and the “Brady Bunch”.

Also, “I Dream of Jeannie” prepared me for saying “Yes Master!” to The Man. 😉
2. Are you a morning or night person? Night. I think move and act better in the evening. A perfect day for me would be waking up at 9:00 am taking a nap at 2:00PM and going to bed at around 1:30AM or 2:00AM. (yes.. I am a freak show)

I had a few problems with WordPress 2.91.. you know the kind of problems where it makes my blog not show up? I’ve been working on these issues today.. and it’s almost right, but not quite.
But enough of that.. I have a movie to watch.. What movie you ask?
YES.. the 1981 classic Clash of the Titans.. I forced #1 to watch it when we were done with mythology during her junior year of homeschool high school. She gave me all kinds of problems.. until she started watching it and fell in love like I did.
I admit that 1981 was not the year for special effects. Check out the Kracken here.
But in 1981 you didn’t watch movies for special effects.. right? (I don’t know I wasn’t
alive in 1981) Ok that’s a lie.. I was.. but I was like in 7th grade or something.
You should check out Clash of the Titans.. this one..
not so much this one…
Mr. T and Chuck Norris.. 😉
They are going to release a new version of Clash of the Titans in March of 2010.. you can check it out HERE and HERE
