#CouponingWhileBlack (Again): Dollar General Employee Calls Cops on Black Woman Using Digital Coupon

This ass hole is so repulsive! The lady is a special education teacher, which in my book makes her an angel and she should be treated like an angel.

So it’s no surprise that when she tried to pay for a $30 purchase at a Dollar General in Buffalo, NY, using the store’s digital coupons, she knew more about how the transaction should go than the cashier who rang her up.

What she wasn’t ready for was #CouponKen (I’m not trying to be funny here, his name is actually Ken) having a fit over her attempt to use the coupons—and calling the cops on her.
