First Impressions.

First impressions are REALLY important especially when you are talking person to person. But what about your first impression of a store. Are you the kind of person who will have one bad experience and then never go again, or do you give them a second chance?

I personally will give a place a second chance purely because in a store setting you are dealing with different people almost everyday and they are always putting new products on the shelves. I do understand if they don't carry a brand that you don't like, but when you start comparing to another store when they carry the EXACT same brands, are you being too harsh?
I know someone who will have one bad experience and just never want to touch the place with a ten foot pole ever again. I personally think she just needs to put the past in the past and give things another shot. Especially when you are talking about a store.

One thing I really don't like is when people will compare two different stores by saying "Well such and such place has this and the other place doesn't." Um, have you actually looked? This place has that and MORE. Of course everyone has different preferences when it comes to shopping. But I still think that just because you have one bad experience you should give the place another go.

It's like food. Just because you have a bad steak at one restaurant doesn't mean you hate steak. It just means that place doesn't have that great of steak. If you have a bad experience with one store clerk or one brand, it doesn't mean that store is the worst store in the world. You should still try it again.








Ok, worst analogy ever. But you get my point.
