I order my supplements online and I had switched to a different brand. The delivery timing was off and I had to go to this store for some protein twice this month.
I went to check out and they asked for my phone number. Now I knew I was not signed up for whatever card they had.
I alreay have a card for every store I shop at safeway, autozone, etc so I did not want another card I just wanted to make the purchase.
The young man automatically reached for his tablet as if it was a requirement to sign up to make the purchase. He asked for my name and I said I don't want to sign up, I just want to buy this. The other guy there chimed in and said "what's the matter don't you wanna save money"?
Am i going to save money today? Well no they said. Then I just want to buy this please. Not another word was said as I paid and I said thank you and left. I left pist that I couldn't just buy an item without an argument about signing up for some card. A similar event happened the second time I went.
I will never go into this GNC store again, as I feel I should not have to argue to make a purchase. read more
