I went to vishal mega mart yesterday at sarita vihar and it was a very unpleasant experience shopping. The parking area had big gaping manholes. I agree that its a public area but as its being used by vishal, they can take a lead in getting it fixed.
They have now introduced trolleys for shopping but there is not enough space to move them. I wanted to have a juice while shopping and to pay on my way out, when the guy on the counter rudely tells me that u cant open anything, till u get it billed. I argued that I will pay for it along with other stuff in the end and it does not make any sense to stand in line just for that. I even approached there customer care office and he like any sarkari officer ''hamare yahan ka yahi rule hai, aap bottle nahin khol sakte''.
On his face were arrogance, rudeness and utter disregard for customer. So finally I left the bottle there and came back fuming to continue shopping and leave. Then went to shop in the cosmetics/jewellery section, there the salesman, rudely tells me to get these items billed at the counter there only, ,,THIS WAS ANOTHER RULE. So for a 10 rs item I had to get in line and get it billed there. After finishing shopping totaling around 4k, when I was about to exit, the guy at the exit door, wasted 15 mins checking each item with bill....NEVER SEEN ANYTHING LIKE THIS...Finally he cud not locate the bill for the 10 rs hair bands that I had bought from ladies section. I had also forgotten where I had kept that bill...So he started searching thru bags again.
They r surely crazy people, a person who has done shopping worth 4k, Y wud he hide/steal something worth 10 Rs... Anyways I then looked in my pockets and found the bill. I used to like vishal earlier for decently priced clothes...but now they have expanded to daily needs items, furniture, cooking appliances etc. I wanted to buy some CFL (compact fluorescent lamps) but then found that they are selling it at MRP. One can buy CFL from anywhere in the market well under the MRP.. So my learning,. wud never go there again,,,unless I dont have any other option in mind..coz they don’t sell cheap and the staff is highly arrogant... Furniture collection was good there, but with the prices that I have seen there, I am sure I will get it much cheaper on jail road or pachkuian road...or maybe even my local market...coz I got the CFL much cheaper in my local malviya nagar market...
