I do live near a dillards.
Here is what I plan to do:
Go there on a busy holiday shopping day,load a cart with everything it will hold. Lots of small expensive items, from numerous areas of the store. Pick the busiest register.
Delay the heck out of the cashier, asking/arguing about prices on each item. If when they finally get to the total price, I will inform them that I have changed my mind. Then I will walk out the door. Repeat as necessary or until I’m banned from the store...
That is exactly what I did 2 years ago after going to a WalMart and realizing there was no Christmas music or any other recognition of Christmas - and after talking with the manager who said they didn’t want to “offend” anyone - I did what you proposed = leaving them with “I am offended that I should be expected to spend my Christmas money in a store that feels “Christmas” is offensive...
I guess I wasn't the only one who let the mighty WalMart know this was unacceptable - they now 'allow' Christmas and even the Salvation Army red kettles out front
All that is needed to reverse most offensive trends is for us to speak up loudly, often and clearly - or we have not right to complain
Why don’t you take your ire out on the store manager that did this instead of wasting time and effort of people that had nothing to do with it?
Do you think that if one freeper screwed up it should be open season on all freepers?
