A Target customer's attempt to publicly shame a store manager over her refusal to sell him a mispriced electronic toothbrush has backfired after sympathizers raised over $30,000 for her. Leavitt tweeted that a store manager named Tori refused to sell him the item for the displayed price, prompting him to call the police. "Harassed this Target employee over an electric toothbrush, and then blasted her on Twitter to his 215k followers," the page read. In a statement to the paper, a Target spokesperson said the company is "grateful for the hard work our team members put in each day to serve our guests in our stores." "We’re working closely with our store team on this and appreciate the messages of support the team has received from guests," the spokesperson added.
