♥ For the LOVE of Diapers...

***Warning*** It's past midnight and anything we say in this post cannot be used against us. Especially WALMART!!!
This post is written by ME however Rachel & Bridget are co-narrators. Everything in RED is Bridget or Rachel!!!
We had such a fun night. We went to Denny's for my birthday dinner and got to have some girl talk. Our favorite waitress is Man Hands we actually don't even know her name but we love her! We're so glad that she is a waitress and not an Gynecologist as she has the largest hands we have ever seen on a woman!!! We all have the same thing every time we go, Deluxe Chicken Salad with Ranch dressing and garlic toast, although Bridget has to add her bacon...
We then went to Walmart. We all needed to get diapers however the diapers the we needed were completely GONE! So I went over to the associate and asked if they had any in the back but she said that they didn't have any that she could get. Then Rachel went and asked if there was a stock man that could go check in the back for some. WELL, Mrs. Glenda (not the good witch)
said that she would go check and headed off to "insert air quotes here" find some but really she was reapplying her chap stick! Meanwhile back at the ranch, Bridget needed to use the facilities and being pregnant its not uncommon! While Bridget was on her way back Mrs. Glenda decided that it would be fun to talk CRAP about the 3 women who dared to ask her to look for diapers, to her little sidekick the flying monkey, JUANITA CHAKITA BANANA HAMMACK! Bridget came back to us and informed (AKA Tattled) us of this conversation. Evidently Glenda couldn't believe how we had the nerve to ask her to go LOOK for diapers. How we would magically think that a truck could just appear from nowhere! This really ticked off Rachel and I have to say that I was none too happy either. We figured this was her job to help out the customers. Doesn't the little vest that they wear say, "What can we do for you?" Not, "Umm, hang on, let me go act like I'm doing something while I'm talking crap about the customer to everyone else that might like to listen." So Rachel got out her ANGRY EYES (toy story) and couldn't let this one go. She went and got the woman's name! This is when we found out that her name was GLENDA the bad witch of walmart. Rachel proceeded to spout off like Mt. Crap a Toa! saying it's really not nice to talk crap about customers. I got your name it's fine. Glenda then denied the fact that there was even a truck now and that she was talking bad about us to her little monkey. Mrs. Glenda started getting nervous at this point!
We went and found a manager, One eyed Brian, he really does have one good eye. He is the BEST. He's so great and went out of his way to help us out! We talked to Brian and informed him of our encounter and he said that he would take care of EVERYTHING. He went and found our diapers within 2 minutes. After finding our diapers he said that he would talk to the women in private once we left. Which we were glad because we didn't want them to be reprimanded in public but seriously to talk bad about customers in front of the whole store is WRONG! Brian gave us a five dollar off customer service discount for each of our box of diapers. Due to the rudeness of Mrs. Glenda and her monkey. We ran over to get some moo juice and noticed there was a 1.50 coupon for PAMPERS on the cheerios boxes! So Melissa cut them out MacGyver style in the dairy section with her little MacGyver pocket knife! We checked out and started for Rachel's place when we noticed a suburban broken down and the people where pushing the burban. We pulled over and asked if we could call someone or if they'd like us to pull them to the parking lot. It was dang cold and windy. The man that was there was getting ready to hook up the tow strap when the lady decided that the "legal" ramifications would be TOOO GREAT and opted not to have our help. We came back to Rachel's and hopped up on Chocolate cake that Rachel made YUM and here we sit typing my fabulous BIRTHDAY experience!

POST NOTE--Before we get struck by lightning all the people are really nice except for Glenda who needed an enema a nice hug. You know like Donkey on Shrek "I just need a hug"!

Seriously what we go through for a box of diapers!!!

Happy Happy Birthday to you. I never shopped at W until last summer because the isles were to tall I didnt know where anything was. Well I started last summer and now I am hooked on some of the great sales. BuT man not only Glenda the bad which works there but alot of really snotty cusmtmers are there, it has to be the rudest place on earth! and once I was there at 11pm to grocery shop, there were school aged kids there with families eatting McD, is this why my husband teaches kids there extra math class because they are not passing? should they not have been in bed at 11pm on a school night? dont get me started on W! Again. Happy Happy Birthday to you.

OMG you guys are hysterical!! Sheesh, how hard is it to find a couple of boxes of diapers, for goodness sake.

I'm glad ol' one eye could help you out.

I'm glad you had a fun birthday!!

Happy Birthday!
It sounded like fun, even Walmart.
Sometimes it is nice to know that the rude behavior at Walmart is not considered acceptable behavior.

Happy Birthday! And am I missing the part where you girls polished off a picture of margarita's and a few shots of tequilla before going to WalMart?! The things we do for our children . . .

My sister just called me and told me about a deal going on at Albertson's dot com.... Huggies are like $3 and something for a box of 120. She spent $75 and got like 15 boxes or something crazy like that. Check it out.

Melissa said...

Oh I feel your pain with Walmart! My husband and I have had nothing but trouble the past couple times that we have gone! They have been mouthy with us too, they actually screwed up my perscription and gave me prozac while I was breastfeeding when they were suppose to give me lactating medication....we have issues with them :)

So now the big question on everyone's mind is this..... what kind of diapers do you guys prefer in order to have gone through that whole ordeal?

Crazymamaof6 said...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY! late. wow those are some amazing birthday adventures. i like walmart late at night. i hate lame workers there though. UGH! and diapers are a necessity.

raising4boys said...

What a funny story! Love how you told it, you're friends sound really FUN!!

That is so my pet peeve, when Walmart is out of the products I buy all the time. (Which happens like all the time too).

Kellan said...

Happy Birthday! How funny! I loved the "man hand" reference and the MacGyver knife - too funny! Sounds like you had FUN - I'm glad! See you soon. Kellan

Misty said...

Happy, happy, happy, BIG HAPPY birthday to you!

Are You Serious! said...

♥ Well I'm seriously CHEAP! With Joe in school and stuff we can't really afford the spendy one's anyway. But I hate the watmart Parents Choice brand however the White Cloud has been working great for me! Rachel & Bridget are Pampers all the way! Their kids have very sensitive skin so they really don't have much of a choice either! :)

Thanks for all the Birthday wishes!

Hethrjem said...

Thanks grrrrl.

latree said...

Happy birthday...!!!
Girls go bad when they are together :) Sounds you had some FUN.

Cecily R said...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY (WAY Late!)!!!!! Sounds like one of those nights where everything makes you snort coke out of your nose it's so funny.

And poor Glenda...needing an enima--I mean hug (that made me laugh)!

Jennifer P. said...

Happy belated birthday! I have to tell you I about died laughing reading this--ah, the things we go through for WalMart values! At least you found someone who talked smack about ya'al in English. I usually find the ones who talk in Russian with eachother--and I KNOW they're saying bad things about me for asking for a little service, but I don't know exactly what. Is it so horrible to ask for MILK or DIAPERS or other basic necessities one may NEED, but which WalMart doesn't seem to feel the need to stock (even though there are always a hundered people with boxes blocking the aisles "stocking" things!). Wow! You really got me worked up there :)!

Glad your story had a happy ending. Hooray for one eyed store manager!!! Also glad you had such a fun birthday. Thanks for the sweet well wishes--again!

From the Board said...

Happy Birthday!!!!

I know that was a crappy experience, but WTG on the $5 coupon!!! WOOHOO!!! Worth it for that!

Carrie and Troy Keiser said...

First off Happy {late} birthday! Sorry about your Glenda experience... but thanks for sharing it in such a fun way that we could all get a good laugh!

Marmarbug said...

Happy belated birthday! I LOVED this story! Ya'll had me rolling! I can just see you three in WAl-Mart. Mean old Glenda!

Summer said...

oh, funny story. Hey, Happy Late Birthday! Now whenever I go to walmart, I'll be keeping my eye out for evil Glenda. :)

I love Wallmart late at night. Notice that I am there too. My sister and I have had some pretty good laughs there. By the way I love angry eyes. the other one my kids & I pull out on occassion is the lllaaaazzzyyy eye. Look out for that one. It means trouble. (Fivel Goes West)
Last but not least. You crack me up. I should be in bed to try and get my body back in order after "springing forward". Instead I am reading your blog and thinking we must have been sisters in a former life. Thanks.
