comments that might drive you crazy

1 - "we were actually looking for better bargains" (we're selling things for less than we paid for them, is there a better bargain than that?!)

2 - "when are you actually closing so i can come back when things are cheaper?" (things aren't going to get much cheaper)

3 - "i've never been in here before, what do you have on sale?" (EVERYTHING, we're going out of business)

4 - "when will it end, the world is going to be just wal-marts?" - quoted from the same lady that stated comment number three. (when you stop shopping at wal-marts and start shopping at indy businesses BEFORE their going out of business sales!)

5 - woman to her daughter, "isn't it neat honey, you're birthday is on the same day that they're closing the store here forever?" (i can't comment, my stomach is turning)

6 - "i got some great deals when waldenbooks was going out of business too"

7 - "there's more people in here today than i've ever seen"

8 - "it's the big box store's fault, isn't it?" - i have to comment on this because no, it is not the big box store's fault. it's the fault of the people who spend the time and money to drive to virginia beach and SHOP at the big box store when they have a community bookstore a few blocks from their house.
