Today, as I do monthly, I popped into Ameens fabric store in Sunninghill Village to browse their range of fabrics. I spend on average R400 a month at Ameens as I sew most of my own clothes etc. after today's experience however, I will not support their store anymore! After simply commenting, to one of the friendly and always helpful lady's that assist in the store on the price of a fabric (R60 per meter) that I had bought at Oriental plaza last Friday was only R25 per meter, which was surprising to me as I usually find most of their prices cheaper! i was abruptly and rudely told, by the aunty that works behind the till, that no one was forcing me to buy from Ameens and that I obviously don't know the difference between weights of viscos Lycra. When I tried to explain what I meant I was rudely cut off again and was told that they buy from the same suppliers as Oriental Plaza and that I was lying about the price. After once again attempting to elaborate on the situation I was told that I was her off! Increadible! Sorry Ameens, but maybe the grumpy old lady behind the till should stay at home where clients won't be held responsible for her off!
