Borders Malfunctioned

3 more books! AH!! Imagine how rich I would be if I didn't buy so many books. But I guess it's better to be rich in words than it is in cash.

I bought to classics Great Expectations (because even thought I have the whole Dickens collection that is the one I am missing), Wuthering Heights (because it's Bella's favorite haha) and a newer novel My Name is Will: A Novel of Sex, Drugs, and Shakespeare (because I am a Shake buff). Oh and here's a funny store about Borders.

The sales guy at Borders thought I was pulling a scam. Last week I got $5 Borders bucks in my e-mail which I thought was fun because I didn't think I had reached the qualifying purchase amount. But I didn't think much of it. I noticed that the rewards didn't show up on my Borders account online, but at the same time my account had been acting up so I didn't think much of that as well. So I go to check out with my new Shake novel and the first thing he did was remind me that I can only use one coupon, this was because he saw me take a coupon from a pile that I had in my purse, because a) I printed out a Borders coupon for myself and for Mikey just in case he needed it and b) I printed out coupons for several stores. Then I gave him that Borders Bucks print out that I assumed were my Bucks since they were e-mailed to me. Well apparently they weren't. Some how I got sent someone elses Borders Bucks which meant it had a different Borders Rewards number on it. Oh well, it didn't really bother me so I shrugged it off. Well he insisted on checking my card info and verified that it was mine then asked me if I knew the other person who's card number was on the Bucks. I of course, did not. So then he read of the e-mail address to see if I recognized it. Well if I don't know the person, I won't know the e-mail. Throughout this whole thing I just shrugged it off and said how weird and funny that was that I got some other guy's Bucks. Well the cashier didn't even smirk. I would understand if I was making a scene about it or was arguing but I wasn't. I didn't care. It was probably some e-mail malfunction because we both had the same e-mail provider. And the book I was buying was only $8 so I could live not getting that $5. It was all VERY weird. And I don't think I would believe I lived it if I didn't have Mikey there to talk to about it after lol. I really wasn't trying to scam Borders, I mean really I spend way too much money and time there to be ridiculous enough to try and scam them. All and all, it's quite entertaining.
