Totally Pi$$ed off about this...

I just opened up my hand mixer for the first time since I need to bake that cake for Ron tomorrow.....

and it looks used and the beaters are missing!!!

I've never even used it because I haven't baked anything other then brownies and cookies from a mix since we got married because I just haven't had the time!

And of course it's probably too late to return it since it was purchased about a year and a half ago for my shower!

ETA: Went to target, told them what happened and they exchanged it for me for a new one. Thank goodness I didn't need to get all pissy on them!!

I would try to return it anyway, and if they saud no, you go to another store, you buy it again and you return the old one on the new receipt. I know the guy in the NYT magazine says it's unethical, but too bad.

Re: Totally Pi$$ed off about this...

I was registered at Target...

For now I'll just pull out my stand mixer. NEver used that before and I wasn't planning on it unless I had a LOT of baking to do -- but it'll have to do.

It is so gross. There are splatters of mix on it and stuff and everything. How nasty! Why would they take back a mixer that was missing parts and SO CLEARLY used and then try to re-sell it????

Can you call Target Customer Service for Bridal Registry & tell them that you just moved into a bigger place & got all your stuff from storage & went to use it for the first time. A year and a half isn't that long.

Target's a big place, they should take it back. They probably didn;t check it when someone returned it...EUGH

I am going to go to Target today because I need formula for the babe so I am going to bring it with me and throw a fit if they don't return it!

Seriously it is just gross IMO!

I would just take it to Target saying you got it as a gift and you opened it and saw this. Say exactly what you said on here to them.

Maybe your hubbie has been baking cakes on the sly and not telling you about it...he could have a secret stash somewhere...go lookChat Icon

Hope it works out for you..I would never have thought to ever open up a box to check the contents....now I will.

ETA: sorry, I just saw that it's from Target. I would bring it back there! how disgusting!!

An excuse to get out of baking a cake for you, Ron??? No way...

In fact I just used my stand mixer instead and the cake is already made! Just have to make the frosting now!!!
