A Little Family Vacation a Little Buying Trip

The Man and I took our family out on a little trip this last week.  It’s hard to travel with a family of our size comfortably.  Since #2 has flown the coop, it is a bit easier to travel with 8 people instead of 9.

family trip

This is the first 10 minutes of our trip.  You can see #4 is already asleep.

 

#6 was impressed with the fact we had “the executive suite”.   He fancies himself a little business man, and was ready to handle business at the hotel.  Also.. that’s the only room in the hotel that sleeps 8.

Just in case you did not know.. he’s a “BIG HUNK”

 

I thought I might buy a few things on the trip to re-sell.  My expectations were not high, as it turns out, it was so successful, I had to rent a trailer to get it all home.

The family truckster, the family and the U-Haul.

 

Here are a few tips to insure your success when out shopping in the retail world.

  • Always leave the place neater than you found it.
  • Be kind to the people shopping around you.
  • BE THE MOST kind to the employees.

Rules or Easy? Which Path Would You Take?

I had a buyer say this:

“Hi, I purchased this ring at full price last nite. Would you be willing to refund the difference in the sale price of today as a gesture of good will and customer service? I would prefer to do that rather than order it again at the sale price and return the first to you for a full refund. I hope this is acceptable and would be much appreciated. Thanks!”

The rules say:

“No discounts given on prior purchases”

Would you give the partial refund?
