ENJOY THIS...THIS IS A TRUE STORY!


When decent people get screwed over, this is the result!

My daughter and I had just finished a salad at a Neiman-Marcus Cafe in Dallas and we decided to have a small dessert. Because both of us
are such cookie lovers, we decided to try the "Neiman Marcus cookie."
It was so excellent that I asked if they would give me the recipe, and
the waitress said with a small frown, "I'm afraid not, but you can buy
The Recipe." Well, I asked how much, and she responded "Only two fifty
- it's a great deal!" I agreed to that, and told her to just add it to
my tab.


30 days later, I received my VISA statement, and the Neiman-Marcus charge was $285.00! I looked again, and I remembered I had only spent
$9.95 for two salads and about $20.00 for a scarf. As I glanced at the
bottom of the statement, it said, "Cookie Recipe - $250.00." That was
outrageous! I called Neiman's Accounting Department and told them the
waitress said it was "two-fifty", which clearly does not mean "two
hundred and fifty dollars" by any reasonable interpretation of the
phrase.


Neiman Marcus refused to budge. They would not refund my money because, according to them, "What the waitress told you is not our
problem. You have already seen the recipe. We absolutely will not
refund your money at this point." I explained to the Accounting
Department lady the criminal statutes which govern fraud in the State
of Texas . I threatened to report them to the Better Business Bureau
and the Texas Attorney General's office for engaging in fraud. I was
basically told, "Do what you want. Don't bother thinking of how you can
get even, and don't bother trying to get any of your money B." I
just said, "Okay, you folks got my $250, and now I'm going to have $250
worth of fun. I told her that I
was going to see to it that every cookie lover in the world has a $250
cookie recipe from Neiman Marcus  free. She replied, "I wish you
wouldn't do this." I
said, "Well, perhaps you should have thought of that before you ripped
me off!" and slammed down the phone.


So here it is!

Please, please, please pass it on to everyone you can possibly think of. I paid $250 for this, and I don't want Neiman-Marcus to EVER make another penny off of this recipe!
