WOMAN, 76, BANNED FROM A NAIL SALON AFTER BRINGING HER OWN POLISH AND DEMANDING $12 OFF
WOMAN, 76, BANNED FROM A NAIL SALON AFTER BRINGING HER OWN POLISH AND DEMANDING $12 OFF TAMPA, FLORIDA — Bonnie Kessler, 76, was banned Thursday from a local nail salon after staff say she arrived with her own bottle of drugstore polish and insisted on a $12 discount for supplying it herself, refusing to leave the front desk until the price was adjusted. Staff say Kessler came prepared, receipt in hand, ready to argue the exact retail value of her polish down to the cent. She allegedly brought a drugstore polish bottle and requested it be used in place of salon products Staff say she demanded exactly $12 off, citing the polish's retail price Kessler reportedly argued with two employees for over twenty minutes over the discount Salon records show this marked her fourth dispute over pricing this year Witnesses say she eventually got the manicure done using her own polish anyway Fellow customers said the standoff at the front desk became the most entertaining part of their visit, with Kessler holding firm on principle the entire time while other clients waited it out in their chairs. One customer said "she had the receipt for the polish ready to go before she even walked in — she'd clearly planned this out in advance." "I've mediated disputes over gel versus regular polish, over chip guarantees," said salon owner Trina Alvarez. "Never someone negotiating a discount for bringing their own product like it was a store coupon." The drugstore polish bottle, still sitting on the counter, reportedly declined to comment. She came prepared with receipts and resolve — the salon just wasn't prepared for either. #funny #comedy #fblifestyle #satire #FORENTERTAINMENTONLY
