Man’s letter to major retail store going viral on social media

If you’re a husband, a fiancé  or you love to shop at Kmart, you’ll be able to relate to this!

A man’s post on Kmart’s Facebook page has gone viral on social media, yet again!

The post, which was written in January last year, has mysteriously gone viral again – and it’s got plenty of people laughing and nodding in agreement.

Alex Gadd’s “letter” to Kmart has been shared thousands of times.

Here’s what he had to say:

“Hey Kmart , I am a disgruntled fiancé …. I am sick of coming home at least once a week to a new candle holder , frame , pot or pot stand . Along with several other nice yet highly unnecessary items. 

I need to know how many more designs can possibly be released? A man can only take so much and I am at my limit …. (She even suggested putting a light shade in MY garage ) … I am sure the CEO’s are rubbing there hands together along with all the divorce lawyers who would be getting a huge amount of business ever since you guys had a drastic change in the direction and target of your product line ….. I guess I’m not expecting a response nor an answer…. As I understand my relationship issues are not of your concern . Simply a rant that goes unheard here at home . Your products are too appealing and too cheap for her to resist and as a result it’s putting immense strain on my life . Thanks for listening . ”

And there are plenty of men on social media in the same situation!

A year after the letter was written, Kidspot checked in with Alex to see how he was doing.

“Samantha and I are now happily married (since mid-November last year) it would take a lot more than that to destroy our relationship,” he told them.

“The spending has certainly slowed down. The occasional item here and there pops up but I wouldn’t complain with that … at the end of the day, it’s her money!”

Can you relate to Alex’s letter? Do you like shopping at Kmart?
