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!!

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

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

This story is so far fetched it sounds more like an excuse!

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.

Re: Totally Pi$$ed off about this...
Maybe your hubbie has been baking cakes on the sly and not telling you about it...he could have a secret stash somewhere...go look
Hope it works out for you..I would never have thought to ever open up a box to check the contents....now I will.

Re: Totally Pi$$ed off about this...
let me guess!!!! It's from Bed, Bath & Beyond, right?
I have heard that they put returns right back on the shelf without opening the box!
ETA: sorry, I just saw that it's from Target. I would bring it back there! how disgusting!!

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