Answer 4

Last week we purchased a game for the computer. Would not play on 3 different computers. Took it back to Target and all they would do is exchange it. No refunds. So I got another one and then because of copy right laws they said, they had to open that one before I could leave the store. Now I have another game that I cannot use and I am still out the 20 bucks. Don't know why it won't play. Company of Heroes for sale. LOL

Bought that little battery-operated can opener that moves around the can right after my carpal surgery. It was fantastic...while it worked! After a few short months, and just enough time that it couldn't be returned, it simply died. Of course!!!

Answer 14

Mine was more personal. A person we thought was a friend asked if she could stay with us for a while. We agreed & she moved into our spare room. After a month or two, she was having pain & had to go to the hospital for a major back operation. I visited her almost every day, bought her candy, crossword puzzle books, & a personal cd player. When she was released, I became her personal nurse. I drove her to her doctor & therapy appointments, put food she could easily reach & microwave on the top shelf of the refrigerator. Anyway, I looked at her as the sister I never had.

Well, one of her other friends said that she won tickets to a comedian, & wanted her to go along. She wasn't supposed to be in a car for more than 1/2 at a time. The friend was several hours away. She said she was going to meet her friend at another of the friend's relatives about 1/2 hour away. I knew she was taking way too many clothes for a weekend.

In short, she lied to me, after all I'd done for her. She even refused to give me the address where she was staying. I was really hurt. I still am. I'm finding it hard to trust anyone like that again. I don't expect her to kiss my butt; I would just like her to say that she's sincerely sorry for using & hurting me.

Answer 15

not ripped off but not good either ----so far. Needed a hearing test as sound is becoming not clear. Advised that if I signed a contract I would not need to pay the $45 for the visit unless I didn't want to go through with it ! Have since paid the $45 as intend to shop around to see what is available and compare prices as these can change dramatically even with the same equipment depending on the supplier's costs. Still upset with myself for being tempted with this so called reduction on the spur of the moment grrrr !

Answer 16
