Why You Might Consider Alternatives

• Potential for Inefficient Checkout: On a quiet Monday afternoon, it's possible that staff might not have access to the tills. You could experience difficulty purchasing items, even paint brushes, if staff are not available to process transactions.
• Customer Service Issues: Be aware that at times, you may encounter customer service representatives who are hard to find, or who appear to be ignoring customers.
