So you gave her 25% off EACH item and not 25% off the total?

I'm no math expert (and I don't mean that as in I am a math expert) but doesn't she save more that way? as opposed to 25% off the total?

Also....why would your mgr waste an hour of time on this and not use a couple of the customer satisfaction coupons we have? What ever 25% is of the total, just grab a couple coupons to equal that and use them. WAAAAY quicker and easier than doing what you did.

25% is 25% so... no, it would be the same. And there's no way to give her 25% off the total without a coupon code. coupon code for backpack deal wouldn't work unless she actually bought the backpack today.

I have no friggin idea why GM did it that way. It makes NO sense to me.

In retrospect, what should have happened is we should have just returned the backpack from her original purchase (using sku/upc) and resold so that we could use the coupon code.

even easier just put a backpack on the transaction and mark it down to a penny.

[–]cpc_ishCopy and Print[S] 2ポイント3ポイント  (3子コメント)

yeah but that'll mess up our inventory won't it?

[–]easytech109 2ポイント3ポイント  (2子コメント)

just plus it back in when you're done

[–]cpc_ishCopy and Print[S] 2ポイント3ポイント  (1子コメント)

oh. i didn't know you could do that. I've only ever worked CPC and cashiering.

[–]easytech109 1ポイント2ポイント  (0子コメント)

you can't do it but an mod can

If she had the receipt couldn't they just return it and add it to the transaction then use the coupon?

[–]toothpick21 1ポイント2ポイント  (1子コメント)

ok, math isn't my strong suit, no lie.

Doesn't every store have the satisfaction coupons? For $5, $10 and $20? It's like staples cash, each with a coupon code that takes the dollar amount off the purchase. Could have used one of those.

or yes...simply returned the backpack and rang it with the office supplies.

[–]cpc_ishCopy and Print[S] 1ポイント2ポイント  (0子コメント)

we do, but I think it's in lockup or cash office. wouldn't be surprised if GM just didn't feel like going to cash office to get it.

[–]Max-Pimp 1ポイント2ポイント  (3子コメント)

you could have rung up a backpack and all the items,then returned the backpack.

[–]cpc_ishCopy and Print[S] 1ポイント2ポイント  (2子コメント)

see replies to & from easytech109. didn't know about being able to plus it back in, or I would have.

Your GM should have thought of it, that's some grossly negligent and inattentive management.

[–]cpc_ishCopy and Print[S] 1ポイント2ポイント  (0子コメント)

my GM should have thought of a lot of other solutions than the one he gave me. I should have thought of some of them, but I didn't. It happens. Insanely frustrating, but it happens.

Jesus 25% off the total yields a diffrent number than 25% each item. To get the number multiply total by .25 that number is how much off they would get from the total. Grab that number and divide it by number of items thats the number you subtract from individual items. All this assuming she got all office supply items.

[–]InhaleBot900 3ポイント4ポイント  (1子コメント)

No it doesn't.

.25( x + y) = .25x + .25y

Distributive property.

[–]cpc_ishCopy and Print[S] 1ポイント2ポイント  (0子コメント)

thank you. someone who understands math.

[–]cpc_ishCopy and Print[S] 2ポイント3ポイント  (0子コメント)

say she buys 6 of a $2 item.

If you take the 25% off the total:

$2 x 6=$12

.25 x $12 is $3

$12-$3=$9

If you take the 25% off of each individual item:

25% off of $2 would bring that item to $1.50

$1.50 x 6 = $9

she is still paying $9 either way so... no, 25% is 25% is 25% just the same.

Wouldn't have mattered anyway, that coupon was for last week.

[–]cpc_ishCopy and Print[S] 1ポイント2ポイント  (1子コメント)

right. the associate at our store apparently told her last friday - as the coupon was just about to end - that we would apparently still honor it this week. wtf.
