1 /5 Brittney Weber: I was really disappointed with my experience at the Francesca’s at Watters Creek in Allen today.
My friend picked out a pair of teddy bear slippers for my daughter from a clearance bin clearly marked $10 and the slippers themselves also had a red line through the original price, indicating they were on clearance. We didn’t realize until we were walking out that they had rung up at full price.
When we went back inside, the associate told us she couldn’t adjust the price and said another employee must have forgotten to pull the sale item. I explained that the slippers were clearly marked as clearance, but she still refused to honor the displayed price or offer any solution.
At that point, I encouraged my friend to return them because it’s not okay for retailers to mis-mark items and then not honor the price shown to customers. She returned them, and we left frustrated.
To make matters worse, I later saw the exact slippers listed online for $10, confirming that the clearance price was accurate.
I’ve always enjoyed shopping at Francesca’s, but this experience left a bad taste. I hope management addresses pricing accuracy and empowers associates to resolve situations like this more appropriately in the future.
