>> >> My daughter & I had just finished a salad at Neiman-Marcus Cafe
>> >> in Dallas & decided to have a small dessert. Because our family are
>> >> such cookie lovers, we decided to try the "Neiman-Marcus Cookie". It
>> >> was so excellent that I asked if they would give me the recipe and
>> >> they said with a small frown, "I'm afraid not." Well, I said, would
>> >> you let me buy the recipe?
>> >>
>> >> With a cute smile, she said, "Yes." I asked how much, and she
>> >> responded, "Two fifty." I said with approval, just add it to my tab.
>> >> Thirty days later, I received my VISA statement from
>> >> Neiman-Marcus and it was $285.00. I looked again and I remembered I
>> >> had only spent $9.95 for two salads and about $20.00 for a scarf. As
>> >> I glanced at the bottom of the statement, it said, "Cookie Recipe -
>> >> $250.00." BOY, WAS I UPSET!! I called Neiman's accounting dept. and
>> >> told them the waitress said it was "two fifty," and I did not realize
>> >> she meant $250.00 for a cookie recipe. I asked them to take back the
>> >> recipe and reduce my bill and they said they were sorry, but because
>> >> all the recipes were this expensive so not just everyone could
>> >> duplicate any of our bakery recipes....the bill would stand. I
>> >> waited, thinking of how I could get even or even try and get any of
>> >> my money back.
>> >>
>> >> I just said, "Okay, you folks got my $250.00 and now I'm going to
>> >> have $250.00 worth of fun." I told her that I was going to see to it
>> >> that every cookie lover will have a $250.00 cookie recipe from
>> >> Neiman-Marcus for nothing. She replied, "I wish you wouldn't do
>> >> this." I said, "I'm sorry but this is the only way I feel I could get
>> >> even," and I will.
>> >>
>> >> So, here it is, and please pass it to someone else or run a few
>> >> copies....I paid for it; now you can have it for free.
