“...you’re just that jerk that caused me to have to wait for you to make your selfish point in the check-out line ahead of me.......”
Add me to your list of “jerks” (sheeple) for wasting 10 seconds of your precious time.
You weren’t that little sissy-pants behind me in line today at Sears when I refused to give them my phone number when exchanging a pair of broken Craftsman pruners were you?
If so, you wasted a perfectly good hissy-fit.
That’d be my guess.
The only thing I can say positive about Dicks Sporting Goods was the entertainment I got at a company where I worked in the IT department that had an owner that was completely an Internet NOOB. One day he wanted to look up something from the store website and entered in dicks.com. His scream could be heard though out the building, every pop up he closed got him 2-4 more. I just yanked the power cord and rebuilt the PC with a new HDD. To this day I laugh every time I think about it.
It’s defective, isn’t it.
Because a handgun’s sole purpose is to kill people, according to many folks including my late mother.
If you’ve used it all this time and it never killed anybody, it must be broken.
PA Driver’s Licenses don’t have SSN’s on them, neither do Ohio’s
I’ve been to Dick’s once. Made a purchase but haven’t, and won’t be back. Not because of your type of experience. Only because they took over our locally owned store called Gallian’s. Which I used to love shopping at during lunch breaks.
After Dick took over, I found their selection of products went down, and the quality of service. The whole feel of the store felt wrong from what I was used to. Or maybe some PA based company coming in and buying up my local store didnt sit too well.
No matter. I really don’t like Dick’s.
Gallian’s got several $$$$ of my dollars. Dick’s, not so much.
We do have a Gander Mountain now, not far from my - used to be favorite Gallian’s location - and what I wouldnt give for a Cabella’s here.
But hey, not is not all lost. We have Internet shopping with iPads from our easy chairs. Or anywhere else for that matter.
The problem with Texas driver's licenses, is that they store your complete and personal history (that is known to them in their databases) on the magnetic tape, not just your ID #, and active status.
It's one of the reasons they scan it when you buy over the counter cold medication and you are only allowed to buy one per month.
The TPTB just don't need to know certain information, and they have trained the younger generations that there is no harm in just giving the information up, and don't see m to understand why certain people won't comply.... after all, if you've done nothing wrong, there's no harm in giving the information... /s
uh, you don’t get the discounts at Kroger without a card, either
I laughed at them.

Back when they were still in business I always gave out the number to the Chicken Ranch cat-house in Nevada......
That's because they already have your address and phone number when you ordered.
Yinz must be talking abaht Jine Iggle.
Nope, that wasn't me, I wasn't at Sears today......
But if I was, I probably would have been upset at you for being so stupid to make a scene rather than just give a bogus phone number like everyone else does. But like I said, some people are just born with a bug up their ass and have to make a point about everything.
I'm glad to hear that you were able to make yours and went home a happy customer.........
That and because they’re tagging.
I said “no, I'm not from around here.”
She called to the next checkstand and asked if a customer there would let me use their discount cards.
So thanks to the clerk and a little old lady buying her groceries, I got a price break on my— things— and an even better opinion of Southern(ish) Hospitality.
“This is the reason I save up and pay cash at the local swap meet or gun show.”
Yup...for everything related. Also a couple of area ‘flea’ markets have provided related needs/wants. Getting ready to check out a local g-show for additional ‘needs’. No generated p’per trails.
Probably. There's an old saying: "never ascribe to malice that which can be adequately explained by incompetence."
