“I want to apologize the lady with the reddish hair with a ponytail I was a little bit rude this morning because I asked if I buy a pack of cigarettes and use $4.32 on my debit card and the rest cash she ran my debit card it as for $3.82 cash which I guess I think everybody should know how to run this but they don't but if it's asking for $3.82 cash then you just type in the 382 on your register and cash out or total whatever however your cash register runs and it's done well she canceled it and said she had to take the money first what's that take the money off my card so the second time is declining and she told the other lady that was declined twice it was because she cancels the first time and it took the money off so it declined the second time of course because the money was already taken off and the other lady said that the money will be put back on the card but it wasn't at the time and I thought I had to wait a week or so to get my money back so I was a little bit angry at this lady I want to apologize to her for my actions other than that it was excellent service I know everyone doesn't know how to run a debit card and then cash my apologies cuz I walked out the door and said she should learn how to run a register. I'm sorry for saying that people want their cigarettes they're a little bit angry lol”
