A few weeks ago the wife and I were at William Sonoma looking at coffee pots and grinders. As usual this was way more costly than what I expected, K-cups work just fine for me. Anyways, wife picks out the products she wants, totaling almost $600, she takes the heathen spawn out of the store and I go to pay. While at the register I’m offered the opportunity to sign up for their credit card, which I deny. Then she says you can save 20% off your purchase on top of the sales price. Well, my cheap [censored] decides that saving $125 sounds pretty good, so I sign up. Instantly DENIED! Cashier lady says that’s strange, yup, only debt I have is my house, which is less than 1/4 of our monthly income. She goes on to say that it can take up to 7 days for approval and that once approved my card would be credited the 20%.
So I get to being nosey, there was never a hit to my credit. Did they actually run a check on me? Was this just a ploy to get people to buy something? I’ve never been denied a CC, mortgage, car loan, or anything in my life.

I would blame Judd FYI. He probably has a guy up there if you know what I mean.

You say there was never a hit on your credit. If you are checking it through one of the credit monitoring services, then maybe they use Trans Union and the credit card company ran a different bureau. You can go to www.annualcreditreport.com and get a copy of all three reports there. That is the site set up by the CPBA, and if you ever have to dispute something on your report, that's where I would go.

Same thing happened to me at Scheels, my credit score is 824. The savings was big, so I bit. It worked out.

Girls say's "it strange", then turns around and say's "it can take up to 7 days for approval and that once approved my card would be credited the 20%" Sounds like you're not the first and likely the norm. As far as WS prices, they generally sell better quality and that cost, Bed Bath and beyond if you want tupperware

Were you wearing a MAGA hat? They may have a button on the register for that at Williams Sonoma.

No doubt they carry nice stuff, and I do appreciate them thoroughly explaining the difference in each machine. We bought it on Amazon
