[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 395415, member: 1514"] I hate dealing with stuff like this. I really do. So many folks try to do slip and fall fake injury claims that it makes it really hard on people who do get injured. I havent fallen in a store in many years and back then I was so young, it really didnt hurt me. I was just a teen so I bounced right back, but they did take me up to management and take a report. My thing has always been fingers! I got my finger caught in a shopping cart back when Cory was small enough to fit in the seat. The seat started to collapse and it caught my finger in there when I went to catch him to keep him from falling into the basket. It was ugly. Kmart was great though. They sent me to the hospital, paid for the whole thing and then sent me a $500 gift card. I was thrilled. Never thought about suing. Just lately I have been hurt twice in my local food store. Both times I blame on me though so I never mentioned it. Well the first time I did mention it to them because I asked for a bandaid and I wanted to let them know there was a sharp place in the bathroom. I pinched my side and caused it to bleed. The other time I slammed my pinkie finger in the bathroom door and broke it. I figure I should have been more cautious. Not their fault. I bet some folks would have blamed them. [/QUOTE]
