My wife and I went to buy a washer dryer combo stack from the Homo Despot. We talk to the lady that we had to spend 20 minutes to find and lure back to the appliance counter. Spend about another 20 minutes finding the correct one on the website even though it took me about 45 seconds to find it on my phone. Do the sale thing and get told a price that includes warranty, shipping, all of the good shit, Get a receipt to take to the front to pay. In the 60 foot walk between the two counters the price jumped just short of $300.
Me: Uh, we were told one price over there and now this fuckery, how?
Clerk: Oh, shipping.
Me: Nope on there already.
Clerk: Um some other bullshit fee.
Me: Nope.
Clerk: Well we must have made a mistake.
Me and the wife: You're fucking right you did. Cancel that shit because we ain't buying fuckall from this dipshit circus.
We demanded a receipt showing that the order was canceled and walked the fuck out. I don't remember where we got it but we got the exact same thing for a hundred bucks less.
It really was kinda surreal how agonizingly fucked up it was trying to make a simple purchase was.
It took some thought and effort on Home Depot's part to have such a convoluted system like that
