Wal-Mart Bait and Switch, Lie and Argue Madison, Indiana

Wal-Mart strives to address all price mismatch issues with consumers and when possible seek a resolution in favor of the consumer. 

Since you are freely dispensing advice to others with whom you obviously feel a greater stature, perhaps you should take an hourly position with Wal-Mart... When you have finished boiling, writing a post threatening to notify the corporate office, ranting about the ways you are going to have me fired, etc. perhaps you should read the following information and maybe you will come to your senses and ask yourself why you really shop at Wal-Mart:

I do not blame you for watching your money especially in this economy.  I am not suggesting that you should be treated unfairly by one of our associates...  I believe in treating every customer with respect and thanking them for their business...

Not too long ago I sold a customer a copy of Microsoft Office 2007 - She was elderly and only wanted something she could use to type basic letters on her computer... Office 2007 is quite expensive compared to Works and both are much more than advising her to have a friend help her download a free word processing program - Open Office.    Educated associates - that is how Wal-Mart will really make money in this economy and yes I have a college education  - and the elderly lady is $130 in the hole SALE PRICE!!!   NEXT PLEASE

Employee, who threatened to notify corporate?  Who threatened to have someone fired?  That employee was not striving to reach a resolution in my favor.  He was striving to cover his ass, call me a liar and try to protect his bonus.  There was no excuse for his behaviour.

What does the sale of Microsoft Office have to do with employees stocking items in the wrong spot, then trying to circumvent the law by not honouring the price?  Good for you, you knight in shining armour, for offering the woman low-cost alternatives.  But that was her decision, and she made it.  Perhaps she has enough money to throw around and didn't mind the purchase.  But this employee made an error, and tried to squirm away from taking responsibility, acting like a genuine creep in the process, and getting caught at it. 

This report is meant to educate, to inform the reader that they do not have to take such abuse and do deserve better, to not let such a sleazebag take advantage of them if they find themselves in such a situation.  I am report such events to educate, just as you attempted to educate the Microsoft Office buyer.
