A few months ago, I had the fortune of being able to take part in writing exams (oh the joy!), and to ail my studying, I decided to venture out of my cozy enclave to a commercial district twenty minutes away to buy some sticky notes.
The key word here is sticky.
"What place would be better for such a thing other than Dollarama?" That is exactly what I thought to myself as I stepped into the store, where a long line formed at the cash registers by frugally dressed persons of various ethnicities.
I made my way through the mess of the store to the stationary section, and after I had walked the quarters of the aisle, I had found the perfect item. Or what I had thought was the perfect item. I picked up what seemed to be Hannah Montana sticky notes. Oh how awesome! I love Hannah Montana! It wasn't until I got home and opened the pack that I realized that they weren't sticky at all. They were just sticky note shaped, and in fact, cost $1.25, not the $1 that Dollarama used to sell everything for.
I was angry. Beyond angry. Not only was I scammed out of my $1.25, but I had winded up with about 50 pictures of Ms. Montana which refused to stick anywhere.
Lesson to learn from this?
Don't purchase Hannah Montana "sticky notes" in Dollarama.
Sincerely,
A concerned citizen
