i shop at both costco and sams club... everytime i step into sams.. i ask myself... did i just walk into walmart version of costco? some of the staffs are friendly.. and well.. some are clueless..
here is what went wrong when i visited sams.. i was purchasing case of beer. my little girl was shopping with me. when i got to the check out stand. cashier says "sir i cant sell you the beer. you are with minor and must be 21 or older to purchase any alcohol beverage".
i request store manager. he repeats what the cashier said. at this point i was very frustrated and there was no point of arguing with uneducated staff.
later that day, i called the district manager and hoping i get some results.. well, even district manager was clueless.. so i explained that in state of arizona ARS. person who's purchasing has to present their ID and must be 21 or older, not the person who is accompanying the purchaser.
well.. he returned my call couple hours later.. apologized.. and said he will retrain everyone regards to selling alcohol.
oh here is the funny part.. 3 weeks after this incident.. i was shopping at walmart with my family.. same thing happened..
so now i just stick with costco..
