I ran into & recognized her years later and told her how delightful our encounter had been for me -- she was surprised, didn't particularly remember the incident, probably because she's always that helpful & fun.
Now that is customer service!! If you had lost your list at Bloomingdales when I was a manager, I would have completed your shopping, wrapped each gift, arranged for delivery to your home and shared a cup of hot cocoa with you over your great list!
I loved reading your list adventure. I haven't even gotten to Christmas yet - too busy trying to dig myself out of the health care debacle which is part of our country's current chaos. I find that our Medicare Advantage Plan is leaving our state and therefore, we have to renegotiate Medicare bureaucracy to gain a health plan!
How funny! You really wanted those socks. There was nothing very embarrassing on your master list, or I guess you wouldn’t have asked the clerk to look out for it.
With the buttons, can you not delete or change them if you go back into ‘edit’ mode on the piece and then update? That works for me. Good luck!
I wondered if 'Sebulex' was what prompted her comment. I don't even know what it is or who that would've been for!
I did as you suggested, but the result is the same -- inotherwords, zilch. You'd think that you could place the cursor and press delete the way you can everywhere else in the post but no -- strictly verboten, apparently. It's rather odd -- the more so if you have no trouble when you do it.
This story reminds me of something I have done at least 3 times: I'm in a store and can't read the ingredients because of my aging near vision. I flag down a nearby (young) shopper and ask her to read the ingredients for me, which she always does very graciously!
I just LOVE that store clerk. I love the way she entered into the scenario in a humorous and helpful way. Merry Christmas to her, whoever she is!!

It was high time for this to come around again! What a perfect Christmas story!
Thanks, Holly! It still gives me great chuckles, years after the event.

Another fabulous memory, Clyde!!
Merry Christmas!🎁🎄
You'd for sure win the top prize for customer service, Pam, I have no doubt!

SO aggravating! I hope it doesn't spoil your enjoyment of the season ... Merry Christmas to you!

Oh how timely... and feels so familiar somehow
I'm thinking of writing my next shopping list on my hand!

Is the person you ask always a woman? Just curious ... they probably enjoy being able to help. No bifocals? I couldn't function without 'em!
I think they've all been women, but by chance? Next time I'll ask a man!
