I will never step foot into a Target store again. Dramatic, I know. And I believe you’ll think twice about it too after you read this account:
First, let’s begin at the beginning: My BF (sweet, lovely man that he is) bought me a video game for Valentine’s day. It was a lovely game, but a fighting game. And, as I don’t really care for fighting games, he said that I could return it and get exactly what I wanted instead. So, I took myself after my morning shift on Feb 16th, to the Target store on 48th and Ray road in Ahwatukee (Phx.), AZ. I returned the video game for a gift card without a problem, walked over to the electronics counter and waited for the woman working there, a very kind looking older woman, to help me. We talked briefly about which reader device would support downloads from the library. I had no idea. She retrieved the game, I paid with the gift card and had other items I paid cash for and was off.
I ate lunch out, got home and relaxed for a few minutes. At 2pm (I remember because I had to be to work at 3pm and I had 45 minutes to play my new game!!) I retrieved the game. With titillation and excitement I used a key to slice open the cellophane (oh joy). I peeled back the “security” sticker (oh rapture!) and opened the box (a new game!! eeeeee!). What I found, however, was not a one way ticket to Mario town, but a strange looking disk. I put it into my Wii, only to have it quite politely inform me that it couldn’t read the disk. I put it in the other way. Surely, just inserted the wrong way! Nope. A closer inspection of the items in the video game box revealed the problem. The Mario disk was replaced with a Bleach DVD. I only know what that is because of Adult Swim, but have never seen an episode and certainly (until today) have never owned a copy (let alone a $50 copy!). The booklet was for another video game Super Mario Wii, while my game was Super Mario Galaxy 2. Huh? What am I missing here.
