Woman Pulls Gun On Walmart Employees During Argument Over Coupon

March 5, 2013 at 12:30 pm by Morbid

Crawfordville, FL - Wakulla County police have arrested 61-year-old Mary Frances Alday after they say she pulled a gun on Walmart employees who said she couldn’t use an Internet coupon.

Last Friday, Alday reportedly began verbally abusing a female employee who refused to honor a “dollar off” coupon. She then got into an argument with the assistant manager, Tracy Stockslager, calling her “a bitch and other foul names” before intentionally striking her with a shopping cart.

Alday was escorted from the store and warned Stockslager not to follow her. Stockslager followed anyway, informing Alday she was going to get her license plate number. Alday warned, “If you follow me, I have something in my car for you.”

She wasn’t joking, either. Alday pulled a loaded .38 Special from her vehicle and began waving it at Stockslager along with three other Walmart employees who had gathered at the store’s entrance. ”I have something for y’all,” Alday reportedly told the employees who quickly re-entered the store.

Alday drove out of the parking lot without harming anyone, but was stopped by police a short while later. The officer asked her if she had a weapon in the car. “Yes, I have a concealed weapons permit, and you are not taking my gun,” Alday replied. “You’re not taking my gun.”

After continuing to not comply with the officer’s requests, and after reaching for something on the passenger side of her vehicle, Alday got her ass Tased and was dragged from her car – but not before hitting the arresting officer several times.

Mary Frances Alday is now facing four counts of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, one count of battery, one count of battery on a law enforcement officer, and resisting arrest with violence.

Extreme couponing!
Sam

This would have been such a different story if I was in the queue behind her. Anybody pulling out coupons and shit in front of me would have have gotten drop kicked into next week. And then I’m sure the police would have been all up in my shit. Wtf, like it’s not a legitimate response to queue procrastinators or something.

Crazy Grandma Lady, a gun, a coupon conflict and a Walmart – Must be FLORIDUH!

Mary had been shopping ‘Alday’, Tracy a ‘Stockslager’ at Walmart calls her a bitch, hilarity ensues, catch it at 8:00 after ABC news…

Duden it was a dollar off coupon. A whole feeakin dollar! Probably for that chamomile tea she needs to stay calm. Or maybe she was constipated, I get cranky when I’ve been shopping ‘Alday’ and haven’t pinched a loaf.

That buck will come in handy for bail and attorney fees. Oh, wait, shopping at Wally World, with coupons, “If you can not afford one, one will be appointed” is the phrase that comes to mind.

and hammers and knives and frying pans and cars and monster trucks and alcohol and motorcycles and pool cues and bowling trophys and clothes irons and Ford Pinto’s and golf clubs and untrained killer dogs and crack and bathsalts and rope and drano and Ford Pinto’s (yeah I know they deserve it) and empty bottles and full bottles and CT and crowbars and Heather in too tall shoes and a staircase and Sam and coupons and gas cans and barbells and diving spears and go-karts and……….

I haven’t even read this yet, but just wanted to say…. I KNEW it was Florida just reading the title.
LuvsHorror

I have a better chance against a knife or hammer, just saying.

Not if you don’t see it coming, besides isn’t dead still dead either way, just sayin.
Andyman

Cameltoe tea? Sounds delightful! lol

Right, this escapade will certainly cost a lot more than a fucking dollar to put behind her.

“warned Stockslager not to follow her. Stockslager followed anyway,”

“Hello? Is Mr. Darwin there? Yeah, it’s me again. … You know that award that I requested, … yeah, that one. Well, can you hold it for a few more days? No, no, I wasn’t mistaken. She’s an idiot. She just got real lucky this time. … Exactly. What fool follows a crazy? One that’s asking for it. “

Hard core cou-pawn?
Wolf_of_Mars

I’m SO fucking embarrassed that this is my town…
BTW: Crawfordville (the county seat) doesn’t have a police force, there is only the Wakulla County Sheriff’s Department. So, it wasn’t a police officer, but was a Deputy that was assaulted by that wingnut.
Stupid bitch just HAD to put us on the DD Wall of Shame.
techsupp0rt

Ha! Don’t even have to read it any more, just look at the headline, and… yep, it’s got to be Floriduh! Shemay have a license to carry concealed, but she didn’t have her ‘Gun Brandishing Cunt’ tags.
JohnQknowitall

When Walmart and Florida meet… Is anyone here really shocked?
techsupp0rt

Hmmmmm sketchy reporting. The original article does NOT say that they followed her back to her car. The Smoking Gun article however, does. The WCSO article says that she retrieved her gun and brought it back to the store.

“Deputies say that Alday struck the assistant manager with a shopping cart and was escorted out of the store.

Officials say that didn’t stop her — she went to her
car, pulled out a gun, and walked back into the store. She reportedly
began waving it at the victim and three other employees who had joined
the investigation.”

That completely changes the story.

The Smoking Gun has the police report which clearly states Alday did not go back into the store.

Next time you’re at (insert supermarket name here) I will make sure to be in front of you with a bunch of coupons, most even out of date and made for other shops
Eliza Berntsen

…and puppies, and ice cream, and fries, and pizza, and beer……
Athena

Well, actually, even if you don’t see it coming. A single stab or slice, or a single blow with a hammer is still going to do less damage in the majority of cases than a single bullet wound.

…but your point is still valid.
newstarshipsmell

So, uh… did they take her gun?
cedric

Well she did warn those “Bitches” (LOL).I see that the great state of Florida is still a favorite on DD;nice to see things haven’t changed during my absence.
cedric

LOL … sorry …
cedric

Yep,the employees got their feelings involved;they were lucky Crazy Bitch didn’t shoot them over that dollar coupon.
cedric

“All up in your shit.” LOL.
cedric

You left out one,or two methods … but this is a great starter list.
Andyman

Even better!
jianali

haha i wonder if my little bro (who works in this town) has ever had to deal with her! he was just saying something last week about ppl trying to use coupons that were no good
http://www.facebook.com/deadbolt85 debiate5

peanutbutternuts

captaingrumpy

I guess they will take her gun.
shorty25855

That’s what I want to know? Did cray cray woman get to keep her gun? Lol
souncool

Crawfordville, FL represent! So proud of my little town here. This is the aunt of one of my daughter’s friends.
EveryVillainIsLemons

You make me sad. Some of us actually have to use coupons to get by. I do, however, have them ready to go long before I get into the checkout queue.
EveryVillainIsLemons

Well, she’s found a good way to save money–she’s probably going to end up banned from Wal-Mart for life.
creamofflicka

I know that feel,….
JGo555

I want what she had AND I want that damned coupon.

Haha. HaAAAAHAHAHAHAHAA! All of those things you mentioned…NONE of them were designed ~specifically~ to kill. Guns were designed SOLELY for the purpose of killing. People or animals, doesn’t matter. The Chinese were the first to use black powder weapons, and they were designed to kill other people.

I think it’s funny that people will try to compare guns to automobiles and other practical items of everyday life, but not a single thing they compare it to is designed for the purpose of killing. Your point may be valid, but it doesn’t change the fact that you still can’t make a valid comparison between guns and cars, because one was designed for killing, the other was designed to get you to the grocery store.
Athena

I don’t get it. You got all worked up and posted a month later simply to point out that, while the point is still valid, the comparison is inaccurate?

You three-first-named people are a strange breed.
