Mac's Milk is the most useless convience store ever
Maybe it's just the stores here in London, but in my experience, these stores SUCK.
1. They don't sell bus tickets. I asked why and they say "We don't make any money on them, so why the hell should we sell them". Gee, I dunno, maybe because it will bring people into the store and they're most likely to buy something as well as the bus tickets.
2. They sell expired food. This certainly doesn't need any explanation. How can a store get away with selling expired food? And on top of this, they NEVER clean their slurpee/fountain machines. That explains why the drinks from their machines taste like dog's ass.
3. Their cashiers SUCK. I remember several years ago, it was late at night and I was out for a walk and stopped in at the downtown store at Wellington/Dundas for a 500 ml choco milk. When I took a sip I could taste that it was expired, despite the fact that the date said otherwise. I go back in and the idiot behind the counter says it's fine and that's just the way it is. Take it or leave it. He wouldn't let me take a new one. I fixed him though, I threw the nearly full open jug across the store and left a nice mess for him to clean up. When a store has a bad product from their supplier, they don't even have to pay for it anyways since they'd get a credit. Also, it was a Mac's Milk product. Sure says something about a company that won't stand behind their product, don't it?
4. Their prices, they're even more expensive than 7-11, which is really saying something.
Today was the final straw though. For now on, I'll just wait and go to the A&P and go out of my way by 10 or 20 minutes instead of giving this horrible company any of my money ever again.
