[Texas] Don't go to the S. Conroe Discount Tire EVER!!!

Why you might ask? Because they are thieving bastards!



I'm not one to accuse lightly. And I wouldn't post this if I wasn't 100% positive.

One of their workers stole my son's PSP out of Simon's backseat yesterday when I had it there for a flat tire. Clever thief, stealing something out of the backseat so you wouldn't notice right off.

I even texted Simon yesterday while I was there that the "Tire Guys are ogling Bettie." Nope, wasn't Bettie! It was the PSP laying in the back seat. I even remember one of the three guys pointing while the other guy said, "Noooooo, I wouldn't do that."

I called them yesterday when I got home from picking the kids up from daycare (which is when Connor noticed it was gone...he plays it to and from daycare in the car). They said they'd look into it today. I got sick of waiting for a phone call, so I went down there...to no avail. All I got was, "If one of my guys did that, they'd be gone, fired." Well, no duh! And that's why no one will admit to it. They called corporate and they are standing behind the thieving bastards, so now I'm filing a police report.

In the meantime, my 6 year old is crying his eyes out over losing his favorite thing in the whole world, complete with a brand new, less-than-a-week-old Crash Bandicoot game.

So, I'm making it my personal mission to make them regret doing it. Do not buy tires, rims, WHATEVER from these rip-off artists! Repost this on whatever board, myspace whatsit, etc. you can. I know I will. I'm also going to let the local dealerships in on the story.

You can mess with me, but don't you dare mess with my kid!

Sorry this happened to you. That just isn't right. But I know how you feel when it comes to protecting your kids.

Just to get this straight...Is Simon the car or Betty the car. I got a little confused.

If you got time to picket in front of the store for a weekend, and get one of those local news "on your side" reporters to do a story, the tire store might just give you a new PSP to make you go away.

gbminigirl,
Never mind....I went to the projectmary website and know the cast of characters.

Hope it works out for you.
