Rather than telling you about my god-awful, truly hellish experience, at Circuit City and only getting your sympathies, here's a way for everyone to benefit from what I went through today and have learned accidentally. Circuit City has a policy called 24/24 Pickup Guarantee, which means your online web order would be available in 24 minutes for pickup at your local stores. If the item is not ready by the time you come to store, you get a free $24 gift card. Because of Circuit City incompetence, stores that don't have the actual item would also be shown. To get the gift card, you just need to know what items to order that are out of stock at that particular location. While undergoing this plan, please bring something to entertain yourself. It would probably take over 25 minutes because once the employees can't find the item in the warehouse section, they would sneak back into the store section and attempt, in vain, to find your item looking all over. They would not really honor their corporate policy regarding the 24 minutes. After getting the gift card, you have the option of recieving a refund. |
