Friendly's
Not so Friendly, takes advantage of Mother's Day by jacking up prices

My husband decided to take his mother out for mother's day along with myself and my three sons (9,11 and13). We saw that they had Mother's Day specials. However my husband soon realised that these Mother's Day Specials were priced ten percent higher. Basically they did not expect us to know this, must think we are stupid or something, but we knew the prices since we eat at Friendly's quite often. My husband asked if the prices have went up. He was informed those were the mother's day prices. He was outraged by this that he started screaming at the waitress. He yelled, GET YOUR MANAGER. At this point my nine year old son started crying because he thought his father was going to strike at him. My husband told him to keep quiet or he would give him something worth crying over. When no manager arrived my husband told us all to get in the car we are not eating here. His mother agreed with him that it was ridiculous to charge extra just because it was mother's day, and told him that she was not happy with the way he was behaving and he should have just stayed at the restaurant since the children were hungry. He told her to shut up. Both my husband and his mother refused to talk to each other for the rest of the trip home. This was an unpleasant experience which left my eleven year old to lock himself in his room to cry out of site of my husband so that my he would not tell him what a big baby he is behaving like.

If my father in law had been alive he would have told the waitress to f-off and refused to pay the ten percent extra, and if they insisted he would have walked off without paying for our meals.
