EVERYTIME I go to Century 21 it's an ordeal! I swear the people working there are the biggest idiots I've ever seen! Really? How hard is your job? Anyways, I picked my sister up from the airport (and by pick up, I mean I rode the E train all the way to Jamacia, met her and rode it back). We came back to the apartment, said goodbye to C-line and her sis, and ventured to Century 21 to do some major damage on our mastercards. After exploring the store for about an hour and a half, we took our findings to the cash register to pay. I put the Marc Jacobs boots on the counter, and the cashier told me I had to pay separately for the shoes downstairs...ok fine. So I told Kendall to pay for the rest of our things upstairs while I went downstairs to purchase the shoes. I walk downstairs to one cash register in the Men's shoe department and after standing in line for about 15 minutes, the cashier tells me I must pay for the boots in the Women's shoe section. UGH! I then wait in another 15 minutes line, FINALLY go to pay for my boots and...my credit card is DECLINED!! So I try another credit card...declined AGAIN! Now I'm totally embarrassed and begin to call my credit card company when my sister calls me from upstairs and tells me her card was declined too! I decide to forget the boots (regretting that decision now) and go upstairs to help my poor sister. I go upstairs to find the manager of the store yelling at my sister, telling her that our credit limit is probably to low. I explain calmly to her that none of our credit cards are working and there is no way our credit limit is low, because the cards are in our parent's accounts. (Ok, pause, I know what you're thinking...spoiled little brats. But in our defense we were getting REALLY good designer stuff at REALLY good prices. If you have never been to a Century 21, I encourage you to go. That is, only if your credit card company approves...) After calling my credit card company 5 different times and having them tell me AND the store managers that there is not block on the credit cards, and that they should be working, the transaction finally goes through. The reason the credit cards didn't work the first 50 bajillion times? The cashier AND the manager forgot to put in the approval code when they ran the credit card. O MY F-ING GOD!!!!!!! Was wasting 45 minutes of my life dealing w/ morons worth a marc jacobs dress and two dolce and gabbana scarves? You bet your ass it was!!
