Another story. About how I loathe Ulta.

I called the Ulta near us this morning. "Do you have the Hunger Games nail polish?" "Yup, sure do!" So after our play date at the park I hauled the kids out to Ulta on the way home. We walked around the store, I didn't see it, so I flagged someone down. 

Me: Hey, do you have the Hunger Games China Glaze nail polish?

Ulta "employee": Oh, if we had it it would be over there. (Waves hand vaguely in direction of register.)

Me: I just looked over there. I didn't see it. I called you guys a few hours ago and whoever I talked to said that you had it.

Ulta "employee": Oh, well she probably meant that yes, Ulta has it, but not all the Ultas have it. This one doesn't.

Me: Are you serious? Why did you tell me to go look at the nail polish if you know you don't have it? What is wrong with you?

Ulta "employee": Well, I just said that if we had it it would be there. But we don't.

Will: What is wrong with her, Mommy?

Me: I don't know buddy. (Suppresses urge to say, "She's not very good at her job.") Look, do you know what stores have it?

Ulta "employee": I think maybe I saw it at Fashion Valley. You could call them.

Me: Yeah, because calling this store was so helpful to me. Congratulations, I'm now a Sephora shopper.
 
I mean, come on. WHAT THE FUCCKING FUCCK. How are they all so motherfuccking incompetent?

Re: Another story. About how I loathe Ulta.

  • BAIT AND SWITCH!

    Seriously, I am loving that Will asked what was wrong with her.  This is why he is this year's King of the MM Kids.
    (BTW, I was rambling to Mr. Spiderman about how you guys might be coming up and he interrupted before I got to the part that you weren't going to live with us for 4 weeks and asked how many kids you guys had, so I told him 2, and he was like, "But one of them is Will, right?" so I think he might have been okay with you guys living with us for 4 weeks because your kid is the only kid in the history of kids that he likes.  The End.)

  • Will is the winner of this story. 

    I'll keep going to ulta because their prices are so great, but their customer service is remarkably shiitty.

  • If given the choice between Ulta and Sephora, I usually pick Ulta because the employees don't ask me if I need help every 0.0001 seconds. However, I like the Sephora selection better and I've never had to deal with ridiculous incompetence like that.

    I haaaaaaate that about Sephora. And I always wind up returning whatever they talk me into buying when I DO engage because I wind up hating it and it's nowhere near what I asked for.

  • Do the people at Sephora imply that you have a unibrow? That happened to me once at my Ulta too. "Hey, come to our brow place! We can help you out with that," says the employee, as she points at the bridge of my nose. "No, I just want Muppet nail polish. I'll keep my unibrow, thanks."
