Sparkle Cleaners & Tailoring

Took my new pant suit with tags and once worn blouse on Tues, May 2, 2023 to 'My' Sparkle Cleaners…read morein Lower Burrell, PA in preparation for my grandson's college graduation. Got there after 5pm Friday, May 5, 2023 to pick up my black suit and caramel colored shirt. The pantsuit was in plastic and ready for pick-up, my shirt was not. The young female clerk scrambled but eventually found my shirt. It was a mess. I asked what happened to my shirt (photo attached). It was clear to me that it was not pressed, not sure if it was cleaned. The 'owner' said he could take it to the back and press it. Irked, I asked how long it would take. He said Tuesday! Incredulous, I told him I needed my shirt that day (Friday) because I was taking it out of town the next morning. THEN he said it took him a long time to clean the shirt because "it had blood "down in front of the shirt. I was in disbelief! I had only worn the shirt once to church for about two hours. He repeated the blood was down in front. That's when I saw this man was trying to humiliate me, insinuating there was menstrual blood on my shirt! I caught on and told him that was a lie because I had had a hysterectomy. Sickened and insulted, I told him I was taking my clothes and he needed to deduct the cost of the shirt. He said 'not without paying the full cost of cleaning.' Sadly, I used my debit card, not a charge card that could return my money for the unkempt shirt they were sending me home with. But I refused to be humiliated by this VULGAR man. I left angry. The next day, I searched and found another 'My' Sparkle Cleaner. I called the store and the worker gave me the owner's phone number. I called her to complain but she said she was busy with a customer and she would call right back. After 45 minutes I called her but had to leave a message. I told her about the man who didn't clean and press my shirt and about how he tried to humiliate me by insinuating there was menstrual blood on the shirt. (Btw, wouldn't a dry cleaner clean blood stains HAD THEY ACTUALLY EXISTED?) I left a message telling Stephanie the owner how this employee tried to blame ME for his lousy service and using a vulgar accusation to humiliate me. Stephanie finally called me back from her Fox Chapel 'My' Sparkle Cleaners location within an hour of me leaving to go out of town. She emphatically told me the man I spoke with was her husband! And they would not refund me the $7.10 for a shirt they never cleaned, evidenced by the look of the shirt and the shirt never being placed in a plastic bag. Folks, save yourself the terrible service and this disgusting attempt to be humiliated by STEERING CLEAR of these disreputable, despicable dry cleaners called My Sparkle Cleaners in Lower Burrell and Fox Chapel, PA. PS, the female clerk who initially took my order asked me to pay in advance.
