Larry's meats not owned by Larry anymore and it shows.
Ordered a prime rib 2 weeks early for Christmas dinner. Paid the deposit and waited until Wednesday 23 to pick it up. They asked if I could come around 4 pm and I was happy to make it happen.
When I arrived the shop had 3 other people, so not busy. I gave them my name and waited. When the guy behind the counter came back he said he couldn't find my meat. I let him know I paid a deposit and they needed to provide me with the meat. He left for about 10 minutes and came back with a package and said this was it.
The owner ( Eli ) bagged it and said he was sorry for the confusion. That was the last nice thing he said to me. I'll explain.
While diving home ( now 20 minutes later ) I received a call from Eli and he informed me that I picked up the wrong meat and I need to come back. ( not that they gave me the wrong meat ) I asked if the meat I was given was the same and he said no and offered a discount if I did.
So I went back.
When I arrived I gave them back the meat and they handed me a package with my name on it. I asked what the discount was and Eli said $1.00. I said $1 dollar for my time and gas. He said yes. Then he said "the other meat you received was the same and you didn't even need to come back. I asked why then did they tell me to. Because the first one was 1 lb bigger. $14 a pound. I asked why I was only getting a $1.00 back and the lady that was ringing people up said oh ya $1.00 per pound. So I asked for what the discount would be off my order. Nothing.
The owner then started to patronize me about me wanting a discount for their mistake and my wasted time.
Eli's meats. Not Larry's.
