Last week I took a shopping trip to Amazon.com. I needed a new robe. I originally clicked on a beautiful burgundy red with gray trim. Said out of stock. Next choice was a pretty teal with gray trim.
On Thursday, June 18, I had two packages delivered. Lo and behold Amazon sent both. I contacted Amazon. They said it was their practice to let customer keep 'free of charge' the extra item that was mistakenly sent free of charge, if I wanted it. WELL YEAH, MY MAMA DIDN'T RAISE NO FOOL. I SAID THANK YOU VERY MUCH. I WILL KEEP THEM. I WASHED THE BURGUNDY red that day. (I have some skin allergies, I have to wash all new clothes). THE TEAL IS STILL IN THE in packaging, HERE IS THE BURGUNDY. I LOVE THE SOFT FABRIC
Joys of traveling by air
Annoying most times
I am not a frequent flyer. My last air travel was 2017
Really quick
People without boundaries
Loos too small for a toddler
Air quality in cabin is questionable.
Never make eye contact if you don't want to talk
Elated when you land
awww adventures with amazon.... that would become s super movie with all the experiences of the customers
ReplyDeleteHari Om
ReplyDeleteThat double order has happened to me on two occasions... in one case it was a desk!
The robe colour is lovely... and spot on with the acrostic! YAM xx
YAY for Amazon.....Love the new robe! Also love your poem - you always knock it WAY WAY out of the park on poetry day.
ReplyDeleteLove, Pam and Teddy
That red robe was made for you and we love Amazon's policy! Your poem is PERFECT! I haven't been on a plane since mom passed in 2016. Visiting her was always the highlight of my year♥
ReplyDeleteWell that was a happy score with Amazon. I always appreciate free things.
ReplyDeleteI can't tell you the last time I was on a plane. I think it was when I was 18. We'll just skip the math on how many years that is.
How wonderful a surprise for you to open the package and find robe that you truly wanted. You enjoy wearing it for a very long time. And the teal one, you can loan to your husband if he needs a new robe, lol.
ReplyDeleteThat was a bonus from Amazon! I've had that happen with Wayfair but not Amazon!
ReplyDeleteGahhh, air travel! Shudder. I'm dreading it in the fall.
Well, you hit the jackpot there! It is always a bummer when your first choice isn't available but what a great surprise somehow they found one and sent it to you for free!
ReplyDeleteGood for you, an extra gift ... just wish AZ would pay their warehouse/delivery folks a living wage tho, JB could afford it. You nailed it with your poem today...
ReplyDeleteLindo roupão e gostei da poesia do avião!
ReplyDeletebeijos, lindo dia, chica
I’m going to try ordering a robe & tell Amazon I want the same two for one deal you got!!!😹
ReplyDeleteI agree with your 100%! So many people on planes behave like they’re in the privacy of their own homes. Ugh! Flying on Japanese Airlines is a totally different experience. First class! 😉
Lucky you to score an extra robe. I love your poem for that picture.
ReplyDeleteWonderful that you got two robes ~ enjoy ~ fun poem too ~
ReplyDeleteHugs ^_^
Woot Woot! Great score on the robes, what a beautiful shade of red and I can't wait to see the Teal.
ReplyDeleteYou are spot on with the airplane poem!
hugs,
Beth and the girls
Dang, that's a cool thankful on the two for one robes!!! Fun poems too! Thanks for joining Angel Brian's Thankful Thursday Blog Hop!
ReplyDeleteGlad you got 2 for the price of one. Great poem! We haven't flown since our honeymoon in 1992. XO
ReplyDeleteI am not a robe person... too hot here. Boxers and a sleep shirt. But if I was into robes this one would call to me. Good deal you received!
ReplyDeleteI’m with you, stay away from airplanes if you can.
ReplyDeleteyou know I also love burgundy but I also love aqua. I have in the past gotten a couple of free things. Last week we got 12 pack of Greek yogurt delivered with out groceries, Bob is addicted. he would never touch yougurt. he loves these. he has eaten 7 of them so far and all free. 18 dollars worth.
ReplyDeleteI picked the right day to read your post, you have something for all of us. LOVE the turtle, fake or real, and I think the photo is adorable... I would love to see a chipmunk, never seen one live with my own eyes. Rocky and Kat, so proud of you for doing the right thing and sharing that bed. you are sooo adorable.
I never knew that about Amazon. I'm glad you got both :) Joys traveling by air, yes you got that right and loved it.
ReplyDeleteLulu: "That robe looks very comfy! Although I feel like Charlee would destroy it pretty quickly making muffins on it in somebody's lap if we had it here."
ReplyDeleteCharlee: "It's a fair cop."
Lulu: "Our Dada will be traveling on a plane soon and he is not looking forward to it! He says flying used to be fun but now it's just an ordeal. Maybe he is doing it wrong."
Wow, I'm glad you get to keep it :)
ReplyDeleteI love Amazon. I wish they could make the world as right as they do our orders!
ReplyDeleteXena: I'm trying to figure out how to open my own Amazon accout with Mommy or Daddy's credit card.(Shhh, it's a secret.)
Chia: Hey Xena, when you figure it out let me know so I can order stuff too. Then I won't tell Mom or Dad what you did.
