Let me tell you a story about the Taco Bell on Bagley Road. I went last night around 9:30 pm and the cashier informed me that they were out of beef! How does a company whose main export is beef tacos run out of beef? On top of that the cashier told me that she "normally wouldn't charge me extra for the steak substitution, but she can't because of inventory." When I politely suggested that she ring it up as steak and then discount me the $5 for the substitution she just shrugged and walked away. I found her explanation to be poor but, there is no question that there is an inventory problem at this location.
Typically my budget for tacos is $5 and now I had to purchase $5 in upgrades that I didn't want. That would be like Amazon running out of books and then suggesting that I buy magazines for twice the amount I planned to spend instead. I'm very unhappy with my experience at this Taco Bell and will not be going back.
