I always use coupons and I don’t care nor pay attention if they roll their eyes. U just did what you needed to do. I’m very proud of you!

I felt guilty for holding up the line, but after reading the comments on this post I tend to agree that the employee is really to blame for that, not me. Thanks for helping me see the situation in a different light.

It wasn’t your fault the line was held up, it was the incompentancy of the workers.

Coupon users don’t hold up the line. Unprepared workers (due to poor management) hold up the line. If businesses offer coupons to entice customers, it is their responsibility to train servers to accept them.

Good call on the itemized receipt…lucky that there was a manager handy to help you out!

How strange that they gave you attitude.

They obviously chose to offer the discount coupon, as it was in your book and they were the ones who entered the amount incorrectly into the register, so it was them holding up the line, not you.

Good on you for sticking to your guns to get what you were entitled to!
