      - My daughter & I had just finished a salad at Neiman-Marcus
      - Cafe in Dallas  & decided to have a small dessert. Because both of us
      - are such cookie lovers, we decided to try the "Neiman-Marcus Cookie".
      - (EDITORIAL COMMENT:  Neiman's is a  VERY EXPENSIVE department store).
      - It was so excellent that I asked if they would give me the recipe and the
      - waitress 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, "only two fifty, it's a great deal!"
      - 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 on a scarf. As I glanced at the bottom of the statement, it
      - said, "Cookie Recipe $250.00."
      -
      - That's outrageous! I called Neiman's Accounting Dept. and
      - told them the waitress said it was "two-fifty," which clearly does not
      - mean "two hundred and fifty dollars" by any POSSIBLE interpretation of
      - the phrase. Neiman-Marcus refused to budge. They would NOT refund my
      - money, because according to them, "What the waitress told you is not our
      - problem. You have already seen the recipe we absolutely will not refund
      - your money at this point." I explained to her the criminal statutes that
      - govern fraud in Texas, I threatened to report them to the Better
      - Business Bureau and the State's Attorney General for engaging in fraud.
      - I was basically told,  "Do what you want, we don't give a crap, and
      - we're not refunding your money." I waited, thinking of how I could get
      - even, or even try and get any of money back. I  just said, "Okay, you
      - folks got my $250, 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 in the
      - United States with an e-mail account has a $250.00 cookie recipe from
      - Neiman-Marcus...for  free. She replied, "I wish you wouldn't do this." I
      - said, "Well, you should have thought of that before you ripped me off",
      - and slammed down the phone on her. So, here it   is!!! Please, please,
      - please pass it on to EVERYONE you can possibly think of. I paid $250
      - dollars for this... I don't want Neiman-Marcus to ever get another penny
      - off of this recipe.... :
