Little girl opens iPod, gets book instead
A little girl in Maryland this Christmas opened a box that was supposed to contain an iPod classic, only to discover a book and a strange note in place of the portable player she thought she had received, according to myfoxdc. The box, which her father purchased at a local Wal-Mart store, contained “Awakening Loving-Kindness” by Pema Chodron accompanied by a strange letter, which reads: “Reclaim your mind from the media’s shackles. Read a book and resurrect yourself. To claim your capitalistic garbage go to your nearest Apple Store.”
The man who purchased the ‘iPod’ claims the box was completely sealed when he bought it, and learned that he was not the only customer to receive a surprise instead of the expected gadget. A Wal-Mart store manager said the store had already offered a refund to another customer who had a similar problem, and considers the entire ordeal to be Apple’s problem.
Wal-Mart offered the little girl’s father another iPod, but he declined, saying he would purchase his next iPod directly from an Apple Store.
