Customer’s Story at Kmart:

I once bought a lamp at KMart.  When I plugged it in it sparked and blew the circuit breaker.  I put it back in the box and taped it shut with some green decorative tape, which was all I had, and took it back and got a refund.  The next week I was in there, and there was the box with the lamp, with MY GREEN TAPE holding it shut, on the shelf for sale.  I took it to customer service and raised Cain.  Guess what?  It was back on the shelf the next week.
