Loose Change

I know its a recession but I do not like for stores to try and cheat me out of my money. I went to the grocery store today to buy my favorite drink, an aloe water (Peach Flavor). I've been going to this store since I moved to the upper west side, so for a little over a month now and my drink only cost $1.50. So I go to pay and the clerk is like its $1.75 and Im like since when?? I went on to say I just brought this yesterday and I paid $1.50, so when did the price go up? He (the Clerk) tells me the price went up last week which is A BOLD FACE LIE!! I was so irritate that I began to argue with him, I explained that that was a lie. He just looked at me, so I threw the beverage across the counter, told him FUKC that and I'll be going to the other store across the street where they dont cheat their customers out of money. I surely did walk to the store across the street and I paid $1.49 for the aloe water. I didnt have a problem paying $1.75 if he had been honest and said the prices had went up that day. So instead of losing out on .25$ he lost out on $1.50. And I refuse to go there for future purchases. ~Jonez
