No Follicular Coupon Is A Folly
Pharmacy | Right | October 21, 2014
(A man comes up to the pharmacy registers to purchase a bottle of hair growth product. These items come with coupons attached to the box so customers receive instant savings.)
Customer: “I’d like to purchase this, and I have a coupon for it.”
Me: “Excellent. I’ll ring this up for you.”
Customer: “I also have two coupons from previous boxes that I forgot to use before but I don’t have them with me. You can just take the ten dollars off my purchase now, though.”
Me: “I’m sorry, sir, but unfortunately I can only use one coupon per purchase of this item as it says here at the bottom of the coupon.”
Customer: “Well, I didn’t get to use them before so I would like to use them now.”
Me: “So you would like me to give you a discount for coupons that you do not currently have with you today?”
Customer: “Yes. I don’t see what the problem is.”
Me: “I’m sorry, sir, but that’s not the way it works.”
Customer: “Well what do you expect me to do with the coupons, then?”
Me: “Give them to your friends or relatives?”
Customer: “They won’t use them. They have hair!”
