Archived So I Screwed Up…

[SeasonalGuy]

This is an oddly specific situation, but I feel like someone might be able to help with it… The basic question is: does Target keep track of TM purchases made using the TM discount?

I used a TM discount to buy a product I should not have technically been able to buy due to age restrictions. I am wondering if they knew about it before I left, because I would get a stellar reference otherwise. If Target tracks the purchases in ANY way, there is video of it and such.

Nobody cares that you bought GTA5 ☺️

 

[Hardlinesmaster]

I would not let you buy that game. That tm who sold it you, might get in trouble & a talking too.

 

[tgtguy]

I wouldn't worry about it . Like @Hardlinesmaster said ...the person who sold it to you did more wrong than you anways.

You'll be fine! the TM who sold it to you is the one who will be "in trouble"/ spoken to!

Only thing management would get buzzed for is if you used your discount and were ringing yourself up.

If you've already quit it doesn't matter. And target isn't allowed to give out performance references. The only thing they're allowed to give out is whether or not you worked there. Maybe your position and maybe whether or not you're rehirable....but I'm not too sure on those last 2.

Return of an item with a manufacturer coupon is also an automatic seek to understand convo.

The way I look at it is, whatever you use your hard earned money for is your business and everyone else can suck a chode.

yes AP can pull up any team member transaction that occurred. But.... they need a reason to look at it in the first place. Unless AP was already watching you or that cashier for an internal then it will most likely go unnoticed.

I can't imagine anyone really caring.

If the item was age restricted, wouldn't the register have prompted to check your ID? Resulting in not being able to sell it to you since your not of age for that item?

I've had certain alcohol items that didn't prompt in the past and at one point had some sparkling cider prompt.

You can type in a DOB, which I am sure is what he had the cashier do.

If it was an age restricted game or general product (finish markers, noisemakers)...No. If it was alcohol...Yes but only if the purchase was investigated.
