buy iy, return it, buy it. bring it back

seems to be how my remodel is going. go to pick up the tiles, big box on a pallet, sign for it and they put it on the truck. trucks sagged way down, way more than i would have expected. get home, open box and there is about 2000 dollars more tiles than i bought. why is there a little voice saying bring it back :laugh:

i bought three small boxes to tile my crapper. if someone loaded a pallet on my truck i think a lightbulb would have gone off over my head.

but then, you have always been more about "pretty" than "brains"

(and you ain't THAT pretty)

im hearing this other voice that says, ask the sales girl if it will get her in trouble if i bring it back :laugh:

fishlessman

really had no idea what was in the box or how heavey a hundered square feet of granite would be. 200 square feet is just enough to break the truck.

you get it in reading?
the place is pretty cheap, and the chick behind the counter is stacked like a pallet of tile

fishlessman

no methuen, and the girl behind the counter must be her sister

brought them back and they gave me an extra box to work with. i wasa real close to how many river stones i needed for the shower floor, now i have enough to use maybe in another area.

good go.

every time i tell a sales clerk that they haven't charged me enough for something they are ringing up, or they've given me too much change, they look at me like i have two heads, but i always feel better about it.

I'm pretty honest about that stuff also. I would hate to see someone lose a job just so I could save a few bucks. But if the day comes and a mistake is made that can set me up on an island for life, well all bets are off :evil: .
