I went to the optometrist's yesterday to get a new prescription for my glasses and to get a second pair made. I specifically asked whether they had any special offers or discounts, and after telling me, "Of course! I'll tell you all about them," the optometrist I was with very conveniently forgot to mention their two-for-one deal, so I paid twice what I was supposed to for my glasses.

I realized this when I got home and checked their website. My mom went back, because the place is close to her office, and they gave her a credit note, so she'll get her glasses for free and reimburse me.

(Another instance of bad service is the fact that they gave her a credit note even though she didn't have my credit card, wtf?)

Just because I'm 18 doesn't mean I won't eventually realize you're trying to rip me off.
