flyingsaucersarereal Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 (edited) Why whenever I go into 711 and get a few sodas they give me too many straws sometimes more staws then I have drinks? I have to always say no straw and no bag in Thai. And when I am getting a sandwich they are always hawking sodas and milk they ask me 3 or 4 times? Do they get a bonus if they sell these items?

craigt3365 Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 They look at me like I'm from the moon when I refuse a bag. I think it's a Thai thing. The Thai customers have to have a bag. Even for a pack of gum. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raro Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 The straws are also shorter than those flavoured milk bottles are deep. So I hold the straw next to the bottle and ask the cashier why they don't make them 2 cm longer. Answer: To save money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alocacoc Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 I gave up to say, no thank you. Just take the straws out of the bag and throw it on the desk. I believe, they must give the straws. It must be in the constitution. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevkev1888 Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 (edited) On the contrary, from what I have observed if you don't buy the deal, ie the cake with your coffee or the drink with your sandwich. I often see them ring it though anyway and put the extra Baht in the till. I presume they then do some jiggery pokery when someone buys said item at full price and pocket the difference. They do as you say though, seem to always offer the deal and do not seem shy about what they are doing when then ringing it through anyway. I figured the managers where probably ok with it at long as the deal is first offered to the customer and the tills and stock tally at the end of the day, just a minor staff perk. Of course if there is also some kind of target or incentive on selling up to the deals, then that is also a boost to those figures too.

flyingsaucersarereal Posted July 12, 2014 Author Share Posted July 12, 2014 It affects us because our wishes as a customer are ignored and it is disrespectful. I don't want a straw and I don't want a bag. simple! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
