my sisters and I were at the Aventura Mall in Florida having a lovely time shopping for wedding of my youngest sister. When we saw the Premier Dead Sea Products Kiosk . I excitedly approched the kiosk taking off my wedding ring and asked to try the hand washing demonstration. Just completely unaware of what was about to come. I was ignored and she proceeded to tell my sister about some nail filing product...who cares about that? I told her again, in a polite manner of course, that I wanted to try the handwashing demonstration. She told me I had to purchase a product, (the first lie) and then I had to pay $5(the second lie). I said I see the demonstration kit right there why can't we get the service. She began to poke me in my face with each word she said..."I can look into your eyes and tell that your not going to buy anything." I was in complete shock! Then she told me if I wanted to get my hands washed then "you should go to the bathroom"! This event completely ruined our night! Now you may be saying, okay what a snot no biggie right? Well it doesn't end there we told the girl how pissed we were, walked away and I immediately called their headquarters. We went into Victoria's Secret and when we came out there she was washing the hands of 2 white women. At this point now we are furious because of what we're witnessing and because in 2008 3 black women were denied a service because of our skin color. How crazy is THAT? So once the associates saw that we were very upset the manager who was sitting there the ENTIRE time the first scenario happened, came up and began to say "it wasn't anything racial" apologizing and offering the hand demonstration. Of course we didn't want anything they offered and walked away. We were about 1 minuite into walking away when another associate ran up to us offering free products to us. Begging us to take their products. We declined and the original culprit NEVER apologized herself!!
To the kiosk in Aventura Mall carrying the Premier Dead Sea Products you have officially been
BLASTED
