Shipley Do-Nuts — Restaurant in Lumberton

I went to Shipleys drive-thru the first time about a week after they opened at around 7:30 am and and ordered boudain kolaches and they said they were out so I ordered 3 ham and cheese kolaches and a blueberry cake donut and got home to find that they only gave me 1 ham and cheese kolache and they gave me a blueberry filled donut instead of the blueberry cake donut.
