right on

At our dealership we take cash, credit cards, checks, barter, bear rugs, ice chest of shirimp, beer (2 for 1), Mardi Gras Beads (minimum 48 inch 10 MM bead), alligator skins, live gators (not too big), promises, and more that I can't remember now. Swapped a used car for braces one time(3 kids).

Somehow we aren't surprised......lol. But I would do the same thing.....Maybe I should do some shopping when I come down....I have some snow to swap????

I don't know if you boys are qualified to trade with us Southern Gentlemen. We do things a little different down here as you attendees of the Cajun Sportsnationals might have observed.

Carl , nice post but in most business the customer is always right . In this day most people dont carry cash and most prefer plastic or debit . Its the same as cash and has been proven to help business not hurt it .

By the looks of the car count you could have used a few more cars . If you need a good card processor let me know . Current rates are about 1.86%

Bo, . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

The only thing missing from your dig about the car count was the "LOL".

LOL

Unless this store had recently changed its hours of operation, why would you and 15 other people get annoyed that the store was not be open outside of its posted business hours? If the store has a sign that states that opening time is 10.00 am, I would hardly be suprised to find the doors locked until 10.00 am. Maybe these people need to line up outside a store that sells watches, or learn to tell time. Do you think that if your TV dies at 1.30 am, that the Best Buy should have a phone number on the door so you could call the manager at 2.00 am to open the store so you can buy another TV so you don`t miss a Matlock marathon? Lets be realistic here.

Happens all the time. It's actually funny to be inside a business while people walk up, and pull on the locked door. They then read what the hours are and try the door again. Walk 1/2 way back to their car then come back for 1 more try at the door. If it says 10, then it is 10! There is stuff to do to get ready for opening so employees need to be inside early.
