This
is a bit of a tough one! More often than
not, we only remember our negative customer service experiences. Being a lover a fashion, I’m always on the
lookout for good deals on hot brands. I
admit to having champagne taste on a beer budget. And while I would very much enjoy shopping at
Sak’s Fifth Avenue or similar department stores, my wallet just doesn’t allow
this.
I
decided to stop at Sak’s off 5th at the south outlets one afternoon
to search for a gown for a friend’s wedding.
The associates were all very kind and went out of their way to help me. I definitely made them earn their paychecks
that day with numerous trips to and from the dressing room with different
styles, sizes, etc. They did this for me
with a smile on their faces, and were professional, respectful, and courteous
the entire time.
As
I was searching through the racks of dresses, a beautiful deep royal blue gown
with a train caught my attention. The
first thing that I noticed was the designer’s name. The gown was a Vera Wang! It was the only one in the store…but luckily
it was my size! I became excited and
heartbroken at the same time. There was
no way that I would be able to afford an original Vera Wang design. But then I saw the price tag, and I was in
Valhalla! The original price of $750.00
was marked down to $75.00. After
confirming that this wasn’t a typo, that baby was mine, and I felt like a
million bucks at my friend’s black tie wedding!
