I was SO excited about my Anchor thread...so I went through them and marked the ones I got off on my list...so that I could have a list of just the ones that I still need...
The lady at the store where I bought them was one of those "overly-helpful" types and refused to let me get my own thread! She made me read each color off to her and she would dig them out. I HATE that! I am an adult--and deserve to be treated as such! Well, she got the thread for me and immediately took it to the counter--like I was going to fill my purse with them or something--so I didn't get to look it over before I bought it.
Going through it, she gave me TWO of one color and one COMPLETELY WRONG COLOR! ACK! She wasted MY MONEY ON HER MISTAKES! That really ticks me off. I mean, sure it was less than $2.00, but I could have used that to get the colors I really need!
So if any shop owners read this--let the customer do it themselves if they ask! PLEASE! Either that or let them check through the thread when you are done! Makes me NOT want to go back to that store!!!
End of Rant!

Oh dear, that is a terrible mistake. Hope that things work out better the next time.
I would be back like a shot and want the right threads as replacements for the wrong ones she gave you - her mistake you were not allowed to put your hands on them - so she cannot refuse you.
I would have returned them, but the shop is TWO hours away...and the time and gas money it would take to return it would make it not worth my efforts!
that is awful Jodi!! I had a similar experience in Hobbycraft!! But in that case the threads were labelled as DMC but when I got home they were ALL anchor!! I took them back but only because there was £12 worth of thread there!!! (plus its only 20 mins to the shop...lol)
