SECURITY escorted my husband OUT on Christmas Eve

Call Best Buy customer service and let them know this happened!! Give them the store number. Make sure they didn't flag your account so you can't exchange anymore cameras

Yep made me cry a little! I remember when it was that magical still is but you get it waiting for Santa is very special when you are younger. Made me smile remembering all that joy! Love their channel!

I'd seriously put a formal complaint in 1) about the bloke that refused to exchange the camera 2) the fact you we escorted out of the shop for no reason. Happy New Year to everyone from the UK

[@Stphsttn]

Agree. You should definitely put in a complaint.

[@DirtyMistress]

Or sometimes you just let it go and think about that dude behind the counter has to endure in customer service. Just let it go. Sincerely, a retail worker who gets yelled and spit at daily.

[@calise7988]

@@DirtyMistress I agree with the original commenter .. they should definitely file a complaint against the employee . Chris did everything right & they had no reason to act like that . Plus making a complaint will prevent that from happening to somebody else . This is the busiest (&stressful) time of the year , but just cause you’re having a bad day doesn’t give you permission to take it out on people that don’t deserve it . Had that been Chris who had a bad day & took it out on the employee , there would be complete outrage .

@@calise7988 Tell me you don 't work retail without telling me. Yeah no cupcake.

[@cateslittlecorner6514]

@@DirtyMistress actually, I’ve worked retail and there is 100% no way I would have ever called security on Chris. It actually sounds like the employee either didn’t want to do their job, or they just didn’t know how. From someone whose an ex-retail employee, Chris did everything right. Sounds like not one of the employees did. I’ve worked Christmas multiple times in retail, doesn’t give you an excuse to treat every customer as sketchy. You just keep a more vigilant eye out but from the story; I heard no red-flags from Chris at all

We call the game pass the parcel in the UK: so you pass the parcel around a circle until the music stops, then the person who has it unwraps a layer. Each layer has like a sweet inside so everyone gets something, and the present in the middle is like a toy or something. It's more like a kids party game, but still really fun!!

Also if it was a birthday the game was often rigged so that the birthday kid won the big prize.

[@KellyMetcalfVlogs]

There are two diff games - the one Jess said with the oven mitts and dice - that’s wrapped in the clear wrap and every couple of layers there’s a small gift like scratch card etc then large gift in middle. The other is for kids called pass the parcel - a gift for the middle wrapped in wrapping paper passed round to music, when music stops that person unwraps a layer, each layer has a sweet/lolly. Pass the parcel is a game we play on little kids bdays in the uk x

[@candilease938]

When it landed on Chris’s nose! lol that was perfect

[@Peteypuma1]

We play pass the parcel here. We use the dice and oven mitts (the person unwrapping has to wear two oven mitts), but the wrapping is plastic wrap (which is harder to unwrap with oven mitts on) and there are little gifts along the way (like lottery tickets, gift cards, chapstick, silly putty, hand lotion maybe some other gag gifts) to the larger gift. Jess, I think your useful gift was great!!!! Good work!!! Happy New Year!!!! God Bless!!!!

[@myrahernandez1048]

I worked at BB as loss prevention for 4yrs. We always put a sticker on returns. Unfortunately on holidays we were more alert because of higher theft. People would always take jackets and stuff things. But we also had cameras were we were able to just keep and eye on customers. We were never allowed to follow customers so im surprised he escorted you out or got next to you that is not how best buy works. We weren't allowed to chase anyone if they had stolen something 🤦‍♀️

[@BritneyleeA]

Merry Christmas and Happy New year!! In Australia we have a kids party game played at most parties called 'Pass the Parcel' similar to what you played but every layer of wrapping has lolly (candy) or chocolate in it and the last layer has a bigger gift. You pass the gift around the circle while the music is playing and then when it stops the person holding it gets to open that layer and keep the gift. Lots of fun!

I’m from Australia and that’s how I always played Pass the Parcel too :)

[@hattypreston6781]

The way that I have always played the game is that whilst the music plays, everybody passes the parcel round the circle. When the music stops, whoever is holding the present unwraps a layer and find a sweet or the final present . Where I’m from we call it ‘Pass the parcel’ and you don’t have to wear oven gloves - what about you?

[@nellyfisher17]

In the UK we call that game that the kids play ‘pass the parcel’ but we don’t use oven mittens. And when the music plays the parcel/present gets passed around and when it stops the person who has it gets to unwrap a layer of wrapping paper! Usually we put a sweet/piece of candy between each layer so every kid gets something and the one who unwraps the last layer keeps the present.

[@MHBW81]

Too bad none of us subscribers were in the store and could tell the staff about the cameras. You need to find a more durable camera Jess! 😂 happy new year!

[@luzbentz870]

Im sorry for leaving a comment so late. So… Best Buy Protection Plan with ADH (accidental damage) doesn’t mean they’ll do a rapid exchange, the ones that are rapido exchange, usually has an (R)on the right side after gsp. Some of the products like for example computers, cameras has gsp with adh, but those specifically is send to get repaired, if it doesn’t have any chances to get repaired, that’s when the exchange occurs. Not trying to defend the employee, maybe the way he worded things were not okay or correct, but the system when you try to exchange it, it says that it needs to be sent to repair. Also I think that the security to escort you out of the store was a bit too much. Hope this helps 😊 And hope you guys have an amazing new year

[@breesheyw2340]

the reason Lilia has seen it on peppa pig is because 'Pass the Parcel' is a CLASSIC kids party game, there's no oven its, and instead of the way you explained it, when the music goes you pass it round the circle and whoever is holding it when the music stops gets to peel off a layer (people usually put little things like individual sweets, jokes etc. in the outer layers and then the winner is the one who unwraps the last layer and keeps the present

[@chantalregener3125]

I’ve seen the “oven mitt game” however it sounds very much like pass the parcel? We do “Dirty Santa” which is where everyone buys a present to the value of whatever is set. Then everyone draws a number out of a hat. First person picks whatever present they like, unwrap then second person can either pick a new present from the pile or steal the present from the first person. If this is the case then person one picks another present. Then person three picks from pile or person one or two’s present. And so on.. however the presents can only be “stolen” twice. Takes forever to explain.. but it is lots of fun!
