[Blindtlk] A Horrible Experience at Kmart

Thu Jul 16 19:44:38 UTC 2015

My partner is also blind and works a Lot of hours. So he can't go with 
me hardly at all so I am in charge of doing 95% of all the household 
shopping. This is why I have arrangements at the stores I frequent and 
don't have problems usually. The reason we went to this store was to 
take advantage of the sales because we both needed these items and are 
on limited incomes.
