Came in with my family on Saturday while we were on vacation. I am a long life reader and so are my adult children. We love to support local book stores when we travel. We walked in and two ladies behind the counter did not greet us. My son and my four year old grandson walked right pass the counter to the children’s section. The clerks did not say a word. We are all looking around not a “ Can I help you? Nothing! Mind you we know we don’t look like the people drinking all the fancy wines with fancy clothes on. We all had shorts, tank tops and lots of tattoos. It was very much a-parent that we were being snubbed and profiled. We were the only ones in the store
I said very loudly several times how good the store smelled, thinking one of the clerks would say “ Oh that’s this candle or this room spray” nope nothing. I picked up a book I wanted to buy but put it down thinking I’m not buying a darn here. I rounded up my family. As we were walking out I looked at the clerks, said “ Thank you for coming in. You shouldn’t judge a book by its cover since you run a book store” Got to our vacation home and ordered the book I wanted on amazon. Terrible way to treat people
