Bad attitude

An incident occurred almost 2 years ago to which I only commented but was not a part of. I was victimized at work for making a comment by these people. I never set foot in their store since this incident. For the passed month or so I attempted going to their store again. I have arranged with several employees to keep empty boxes for me to pick up because I am moving. After a few unsuccessful attempts to pick up boxes, I gave up. I was given the green light again this morning to pick up boxes. Upon my arrival at the store, I was informed that according to Riaan, the person in charge, customers have to pay R1 per box. I am disgusted by this as I know that Riaan saw me at the store talking to an employee. I ignored him. He must have asked what I was talking to this employee about and then decided to charge me. I will again not attempt doing any business with them again and will also inform all my friends.
