the little victory sprung from an empty pocket

one of the things i love about being a consumer is how easy and rewarding it is to complain. for example, my roommate was eating a pepperoni pizza hot pocket when he noticed it had no filling inside. it was funny, but also a little depressing. how did this defective pocket get past the quality inspectors? i decided to visit the internets and explain to the hot pocket company that they need to have better quality control. yesterday, i received a letter from “nestle usa hand-held foods group” explaining that they are sorry and, basically, that they will get to the bottom of it. then the letter also says i will receive a $5 partial refund check in 10-14 days. boo-yah! i highly suggest you exercise your right as a consumer and complain about everything until you are blue in the face. just don’t always expect it to pay off. that way, when it does pay off, you’ll be more excited.
