I WON'T BE BUYING THIS FOOD


My friend and I went to the Southern Women’s show today.  One of our first stops was at Bonafide where a new business owner was trying to sell his holistic dog food. We talked to a nice girl who told us to take some free samples.  That’s kind of what these shows are about anyway.  I had some questions so she told me to wait for the guy, most likely the owner, so he could answer them.  

I asked about the Glucosomine/Chondroitin percentage, the Omegas and the price for each flavor and size of the bags. We talked for a second and he asked me to fill out an information card. I told him I preferred not to but I would contact him after checking out all the ingredients online.  He said “I’ll contact you”. So I declined once more. 

He said “well then give me back my samples”.  We thought he was joking but again “give them back” so I did.  We were both shocked.  I was seriously interested in the food, the prices were good and he offered free delivery.  I liked that he manufactured local so I could keep my dollar in Tennessee.  He just lost a potential customer who spends a lot of money on dog food. 

Of course, I had to send him an email to let him know.
