The One with the Horrible Customer Service

I had a dream I was at the Big E (a big fair) with my parents, my sister and Jose.

I was at a vendor that sold a bunch of things, but included was health and beauty products and I bought the Shu Uemura Eyelash Curler - - that my friend Janessa had told me about. This one didn't have the metal bar where the pad attaches though... it worked really weird - like just the pad itself moved.

I wasn't sure if it was the right one (I couldn't remember the name for obvious reasons) and I called Jill to double check, and when the phone rang I could hear it - she was working at the vendor part time. The vendor also did plastic surgery and had an oxygen bar in another room.

I bought the curler, but when I looked at it, there was something wrong with the pad, and I wanted to get another one. They left to get it (another saleswoman, not Jill) and were gone for like a half an hour, and when they returned, it had a different pad on it that wasn't as thick as the original.

Apparently the new pads weren't as thick, and I wasn't sure if I wanted it anymore. They left to get another one, were gone another half hour and came back with a bag. They said they included $120 worth of free stuff in the bag and the original price was $30.

I looked in the bag and it was all purple and pink thread - like big spools of leftover thread. I said, "So you gave me a pound of crap I don't need or want? I want my money back."

The sales woman said, "Well, I don't want to do that, but I guess I have to." She gave me this piece of paper that was a form I needed to fill out and sign and a blue highlighter-type pen. The paper was blank, but was the form was in that ink that you have to go over with the pen to make the text appear.

I pitched a fit, so they gave me a pre-printed form that I signed. I think on that version there was like a Frequently Asked Questions section and there was a question about how the invisible ink form was ridiculous and why did they do it?

They gave me my money back but in all quarters. I was so mad a yelling and swearing at the woman.

When I left, I pretended that the woman pushed me and I fell, saying "Did you see that? She pushed me!" I wanted to make her life a living hell.

A woman was with me (not my sister) when I bought the curler... I think it might have been my friend Melany or Ileana. I remember a guy walking into the vendor area wearing really crazy clown-like clothes and me making a comment to her about it.
