Unfiltered Story #56832

[My dad is very excited to get the Back to the Future trilogy on DVD after its release and goes to the nearest shop that stocks it, which is about half an hour’s drive from our home. He excitedly comes home with it.]

Dad: We’re all going to watch this, and you’re going to love it. I haven’t seen this in years! *opens DVD case* …I don’t believe this!

Mum: What’s wrong?

Dad: They only put the first disc in. The other two aren’t there. I’m going to have to go back and sort it out.

[My dad drives back with his DVD and receipt and the staff are very apologetic and put two more discs in. Dad drives back home, again, very excited to watch the trilogy.]

Dad: Right, now that’s sorted, let’s watch the film! *opens DVD case* …F***ing hell.

Me: What happened?

Dad: I should have checked it but I didn’t think to because they were so mortified in the first place. It’s the same film, they’ve given me three of the same bloody film!

[I look and, sure enough, we now have three copies of the first film. My dad phones them this time and explains he’s already had to drive back once. Again, they’re very apologetic and when he drives to the shop again, they give him the other two DVDs, and pay him back for the mileage. When my dad eventually got home with the actual trilogy, he began playing the first film and fell asleep about half an hour in.]
