Caution: The "Humongous" Hypermart at USJ

[Naka]

Some Coles and some Woolworths.

Aduh.. the clue is so clear. I hope you do this intentionally.

Actually no. My experience was with Carrefour. Too many times their pricing got messed up.

I guess it happens everywhere, not just at that particular hypermart. We just have to pay close attention to the prices when the items are scanned at checkout.

Same thing at restaurants, especially when it comes to items that were ordered but cancelled due to whatever reason.

Let me bring your attention to the earlier posts :-

Ivan,

Synonym for "humongous" (huge) is ....... (5 letters word) and based in USJ - USJ got how many hypermarket ?? Sherry is being smart to "play" with synonym as the rules say we cannot condemn without proof - although I think Sherry got plenty including myself - hence I always check the prices of SALE items at the price checker first before approaching the cashier !!

BTW - MAKRO is in Shah ALam, not USJ !!

Buzz! wrong answer, my man. Always check during and after , when and before you pay the cashier!
If you can identify the difference of price shown, you only wait for the cashier to erase the item and discard it. Then you dont have to be penalised 20 minutes waiting to get back your money nearly cheated by them. Moreover, I always used this opportunity to embrass the manager who come in and authorize the register changes. Ehh, this is carrefour or care2fool ?

I hope you are not thinking of suing the hypermarket for half a million ringgit!!! For that kind of mistake, you, as an employer, can't even sack the cashier or the person responsible to price tag that item! Human errors, my friend, human errors.

There is another one....putraheights Giant...on the first day of the Proton competition, they did not have borang. When I asked the service counter, they say go cashier, ask cashier, go service...then get mad,ask for manager, manager not around no one knows...he came back blame on computer lah etc but still advertise even no borang! That's how w e get treated!

Another bad experience at the HUMUNGOUSaur hypermarket in USJ which always pissed me off is that whenever they advertised SPECIAL OFFERS/SALE, conveniently, when you get there, not a single item is available - apparently SOLD OUT - well, I tried once, going on the first day of such a SALE once, around 30 minutes after opening, and the stacker told me, "belum ambil keluar - nanti dalam 30 minutes" - well, guess what, things never came out, 2 hours later, when ask manager, he said no more stock !!!!!!

Well, it happened to my hubby as well. Left the whole trolley of barang there after cashier was rude and walk off and another person could not solve the problem after 5 more minutes. Came home, called the people concerned and complained about incompetant staff yada yada yada. They asked hubby to go back so that they can sort the matter out. Refused to do so. From 8.30PM to 10nish received one call after another from their PR guys.

Finally they sent the trolley load of things right to our doorsteps at about nearly midnight after they got lost in the process. We got the things gratis.

Today, I welcome a brand new HUMUMGOUS hypermarket in Kota Kemuning.

Not human errors, my friend, not human errors but someone erred or couldnt care less about the job. Why do you think those managers avoid me when they see the sight of me? Believe me - I am that notorious mean and infamous
There were two managers which comes straight to me when they see - one from Tesco and the other was from Makro. I did not expect special services nor patronising words. but it was just that these two guys were sincere to know what was not up to the mark. And they are actually grateful to see a customers like me giving constructive comments. One of them even took the time to patronise my shop regularly and became friends.
So my judgemental observations did not just come from my past dealing with these supermarkets while in the corporate world but also from insiders like the two above managers!

hehe Great and Grand!! Have given up going to this humungous hypermart.
Wifey has been mad when few occassions Carre4 had a different price in system compared to what's written on the shelf. I took the price tag from shelf and showed cashier. Not wanting to wait, just gave up buying the item... so, always check! check! check! even after paying and b4 leaving.
At least Care4 honours by giving back in cash if you pay cash. Giant gives you a voucher even if you pay cash.
