A reporter had a meltdown and called the police on a Target Store Manager who wouldn't give him what he perceived to be the sales price for an item. You.can't.make.this.up. He tweeted:
Redstate reported:
Next, Leavitt tells them that he knew better than to call 911. “I called the business number for the police and told them it was not an emergency and they could take their time and explained the situation.
”
Then he tweets, “The police verified @target displayed the price of toothbrush for $0.01 The store manager Tori refused to sell me the toothbrush for displayed price. The police said I need to sue them and that they are making me a verified report take to court @BBBConnection @AskTarget.”
Leavitt wants to be clear: “Corporations like @target are not above the law. The police officer told me they’d testify that they saw the price and that the manager wouldn’t sell me the item for the price listed…I have not been able to afford to go to a dentist in over three years. So yes I wanted a good toothbrush and was thrilled to see such an amazing prize on an @OralB but @target refused to honor it and now I have to take them to court.” Rest of article.
Of course, the idiot bragged in an earlier tweet of scoring an Xbox for $453 and trying to use a $100 to treat his colleagues to $40 worth of Dunkin Donuts and coffee. Oh well, read the rest of the article because there is a happy ending to this story for Tory.

Some people are just born to be whiny cheap shysters. It is just in their DNA
Another sissy boy and twitter.
And the lil' boy actually said he was "not OK" and "still shaking" . . . . (over a toothbrush) ?
This stuff is too funny.
Look at the Label. It says Display. There is no item info. Get a life.
The individual who called 911 should be arrested for make false reports of emergencies to police.
Looks like the price says $0.01 for the demo model.
She should have said: "Yea, you can have the demo model for that price, oh and by the way, we let anyone that wants to try one out use it. A lot of people really like it except that kid that threw up on it".
So many people expect the police to do everything. You have to wonder how some people make it through life.
Kvetching is the correct description of what this schmuck is practicing. And it is shameful.
I hope no more world wars break out before I pass.
Hell, even the women of WW II French Resistance were much tougher than this pansy.
Somebody started #TargetTori and a go fund me that has raised $8,000 to send the poor clerk on a vacation.
Update> the go fund me actually raised over $25,000 and Tori was found and the money access transferred to her. Amazing.
This guy supports Elizabeth Warren. Gee, I am not surprised.
The shaved-head collaborating women of post-liberation France were tougher than this pansy.
FIFY 6:04
French Resistance was on par with the bravest of the brave.
Shipley's was out of blueberry donuts today, and it clearly states on the menu that they sell blueberry donuts. I called Flowood PD and filed a false advertising complaint. They laughed at me and my feelings are hurt, please donate to my go fund me page at www.gofundme.com/imafuckingidiot, I'm only looking for $500,000.
Anyone else click on his twitter feed only to discover he is a neo-Maoist suffering from Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS)?
I recently bought a similar model toothbrush, which costs about $100+. I hope this jerk actually tries to hire an attorney and gets a dose of reality. As I understand it, a "sale" price is only binding if a reasonable person would believe that the item was actually offered for sale at that price. I think it goes without saying that no reasonable person would believe that a $100 toothbrush was on sale for one cent.
I don’t know what Massachusetts law is on advertised or posted prices for consumers, but the traditional common law rule is that the advertised price is not an offer, but an invitation to negotiate. As a practical matter we don’t negotiate over advertised prices for consumer goods like toothbrushes, but the the seller need not sell at the advertised price. Consumer regulations have certainly altered the landscape somewhat. In any event, the display item is marked $.01. That is not the same as having all of the items of this same model offered at $.01.
Sounds like he’s a been an idiot for quite some time now:

What a POS. Taking advantage of a clear mistake is the same is stealing. Bet this idiot waits for the wind to blow hard enough to change the price at the gas pump so he can get a gallon of gas for .20 cents.
Shaking? LOL
No Shoes, No Shirt, No Common Sense...... No service. NEXT
