Wow. I wish I could give this place 0 stars, but that would not count as a review. I was in this store for a total of 2 minutes and definitely received a lasting impression. I went inside to buy a popsicle from the freezer by King of Pops. I went to checkout and the cashier was giggling. I thought "well okay, I just want a popsicle". She rang up the popsicle and asked for my I.D. I asked why and she responded "you have to be 21 to buy anything" then proceeded to laugh at my face. I have never been to this store and did not know this. I have NEVER been so insulted by an employee of any establishment (including a rude waiter I had in Italy).
She did not handle this situation appropriately at all. The cashier could have been nice and give me a "free pass" allowing me to purchase the popsicle this one time, but told me I will need someone 21 to purchase this item for me in the future. She could have asked if I had a parent of friend close by that could purchase the item for me, or just politely deny my attempted purchase (and laughed about it later after I left the store). I have several friends and old co-workers that are over 21 that work in the promenade, and would gladly walk over to Total Wine buy me the popsicle.
I'm so infuriated with the service I was given by this employee and so insulted that I was treated this way. My friend that is 25 asked me if I still wanted the popsicle and that he would buy it if I did. I replied "no". This establishment does not deserve any business to pay employees to laugh at a person's face, whether they are a customer or not. My mother, father, stepfather, and friends will not purchase anything from this store now or in the future because of one rude person.
