Oddest Warranty Return

So I didn't shop at Jared. However, the Xmas gift I got my wife still put a smile on her face.

Since I know you are all asking, "Pusher, what fantastic gift did you get your wife that made her smile so?"

Let me tell you! I got her THIS (NSFW - for the love of all that is good, don't click this link with your boss standing right there ... PLEASE ... I beg of you!)

I freakin' told you! What were you thinking! Jeez!

So I get this thing and get it home. Get it wrapped and put it under the tree so she can open it ... YEAH RIGHT! She did not get this gift to open in front of the children and her mother! What kind of fool do you take me for!?

So anyway ... some days go by and we finally get a chance to try out her new "toy". Guess what? Dang how'd you know! The freakin' "Turbo pearls" don't ... well ... turbo.
Not only do they not turbo ... they don't even turtle, crawl, quiver ... nothing ... they don't budge! Dang it! Okay, it has a warranty card which I can fill out online and then return it.

This bad boy is in a package large enough I have to take it to the post office ... god I hope he doesn't recognize the name of the company! (The company name that it gets sent to is NOT California Exotics, just for the record). What's that? Do I want to insure it? Um ... do I have to tell you what it is? No? Sure I'll insure it. Whew! Close one!

Yeah, just a little awkward ... but ... $20 extra (shipping and insurance and RETURN shipping costs) it's back ... well NOT the same one ... but a NEW one just like it ... and the pearls ... oh yeah , they turbo!

It caught my attention...

When you have an ark full of animals it does happen upon occasion that they require feeding. This and other various reasons have made Tractor Supply a frequent stop. It was at the last trip to said store that standing on a shelf bright and tall, a handful of containers caught my eye. I performed the classic "double-take" flawlessly. So what was it you ask that nearly caused me to separate my C5 from my C6 vertebrae?

It was AMBP

Are you back?

I know!

I have no idea whether the stuff is good or not. I do know that someone is a marketing genius. At first I wasn't sure that it was -- but then I got thinking ... it caught my attention and it made me Google it to find out what it is (I wasn't about to pick it up right there in the store to read it ... what would people think!)

At least they have it right by the checkout so you don't have to hear ... PRICE CHECK ON ANTI MONKEY BUTT POWDER!

New Addition

My brother and I went out to look at cars last night. He decided he wanted this one. He'll be bringing his baby home today if all goes well. It reminds me of the cars the "bad guys" drive in spy movies. (I like it though!)

Along Those Same Lines

Short and Sweet

Of course ...

if you hate the shopping experience ... there is always THIS !!!! Which might make xmas shopping way more interesting.

Wax included?

I'm just gonna leave this one as is ... if you can't see what's funny here , good for you. If you DO see what's funny, welcome to the gutter!
