The checker totals me up on the register and I ask about the 15% discount for the weekend. "oh you need your coupon we sent you"

"oh, then I won't be taking this bottle, this bottle, this bottle, this bottle, this bottle". I only ended up with my $9 bottle of marsala. FOOLISH behavior on their part, they can look up my binny's number to see I'm a member and received the coupon. I should have asked for the store mgr but wanted to get home to make dinner.

Sorry to hear this - stupid on their part. I don't fully understand the coupon thing, your membership should have gotten you the price.
