Wow. This place is amazing. I had the best customer service experience I've had in a long time yesterday - and from such an unexpected place. It just goes to show that some kindness can go a really long way and come when you least expect it.
I rushed over yesterday, found the cheap jumper cables I was looking for and stood in line, admittedly frustrated that it was taking so long to get rung up because the two guys inside were taking their time with really going in-depth on questions and answers and looking up availability of the items for the two customers they were helping.
Finally, one of them was done and I placed my single item, the jumper cables, on the counter. The guy looked at me, I think his name is Frank, and said, "Is this for an emergency? Like one time thing?" I told him yes, my boyfriend was waiting at my house to jump his car. He said, "I'll loan you some."
I was kind'a shocked. He went in the back, brought me out some jumper cables which he said were better than the ones I was buying anyway, and said I could bring them back later that day or the following morning.
How kind! He said not to worry about the cables I was buying, he'd put them back for me and good luck. He didn't really ask for my info or details because I think he could see I was harried and stressed. He just trusted that his act of kindness would be enough for me to come back and do the right thing.
I returned them this morning to another gal working inside who said it must've been Frank I spoke with and she'd let him know I said thank you. And I do really appreciate that small act when I was super stressed out.
I could already see they were going above and beyond with the people they were helping in front of me and that would've been enough, but I'll be loyal to this store from here on out for my automotive needs, who wouldn't? read more
