Happy New Year!!!! I can't believe its 2010!
I took a little break from the blogging, but I'm back! I've been working quite a bit these past few weeks. I have a new job and I'm trying to wrap my head around all the new stuff on my plate.
Anyway- Here's an interesting story. I've always been a Target shopper. I like Target better than Walmart. When the time came to order some gifts for my nephews for Christmas I turned to Target on-line. I selected and paid for two toys and had them gift wrapped and shipped to my nephews. The packages arrived and my sister in law placed the wrapped presents under the tree for the boys. Chrsitmas morning arrived and my first nephew opened his present and was delighted with his toy. My second nephew opens up his present, says "Oh." and tosses it aside. He was already on to the next gift when my brother said- "Hey- what was that gift?" My nephew says "I don't know. It has a bug on it."
Turns out Target wrapped and sent my nephew a screen cover for a garage door!!! My nephew handled it pretty well. Thank goodness! I could have been responsible for long lasting Christmas morning trauma!
So I called Target customer service. They were the most unhelpful people. Their 'solution' to the problem was to give me my money back. I didn't really care about the money- I wanted my nephew to get his gift. All I got was "Sorry. That item is out of stock. Can we help you place another order?"
No! I want you to FIX the order! I barely even got an apology.
It ended up that my brother and my nephew went to Target and returned the garage door screen. They were given a credit for the amount of the gift. (Turns out the bar code sticker stuck on the garage door screen was actually for the toy I ordered.) So my nephew will get to pick out his own toy.
But I will not be ordering from Target on-line again!! Buyer beware!!!
