Hola Amigos y Amigas. Today was a shopping trip day up to the shops in Coronado. New store opened last week called El Machetazo, groceries and household and sporting goods, etc... kind of like a Super Walmart if you are from the states.
So today they had some prices listed wrong on some items we bought so we had the challenge of trying to have them understand that the price at the register was not correct and the real price was marked on the shelf. Sooooooo here we go, let's walk to show the first guy, he agreed, back to the register we go, next up 2 Managers, they walk over to the aisle, see the same price, flip over the card and changed the price right in front of my eyes (so now I am thinking, O NO, have to pay the new price but we were not about to give up so easy) BUT they took the old sticker to the cash register and rang up the price originally quoted and apologized to us. Mission accomplished!!! But here's the best part the whole process took no less than 20 minutes - YIKES. remember patience is truly a virtue here in Panama if you need something done.
And if you don't believe this just ask my friend from Scotland.
