So..all this fuss for a stupid potato.
The rare Charisma potato that apparently only certain retailers sell. Namely Longos and Metro at the time. I have no Metro near me so OFF to longos I go!Except I never usually shop here so I contact them on facebook and ask them to check if these rare Charisma potatoes are in stock. They said YES they are!
I go to the store.. Cant find them anywhere. I ask a stock boy, he seemed about as interested in what I was saying as his daily homework. He doesnt know what I'm talking about. I leave, Message Longos facebook again and tell them what happend. I leave the store and the reply back saying "No its in the store next to the mushrooms". I drive all the way back. Nothing there. I ask a manager this time and he says " OHHH I thought the facebook lady wanted Parisienne potatos...", then he goes on a long 10 minute discussion about how "Maybe we'll get them but maybe we wont".
I leave the store and message their facebook telling them i'll never go to the store again ( I never have), and they ask if a manager can call me. Whats the point? So he can tell me farming is hard and maybe they wont get them??
