Adventures in Transit

Well, I took the church trailer down to Concord yesterday with the intent of picking up some new laundry carts from Linen n Things. They are going out of business so they are getting rid of everything in the store.

So I get there yesterday evening and the guy vaguely remembers me calling two days ago. I'm thinking ok. Next he finally takes me to the back room where all the carts are and lo and behold they are filled to the top with merchandise. He says they just got in a shipment. So I ask if he put our carts aside. He says no. Then he tells me to come back Saturday to get them. I'm like, "Dude, I just came down from Claremont specifically to pick these things up."

I'm ready to whale on this guy but I look at the carts and they are in great shape and he is giving me a wicked good price, so I back off. So he says that he will be there Saturday and if they are filled he will dump them. I'm thinking, "Why don't you dump them now?" Anyway, looks like I'm going back on Saturday. Oh well, we need the carts.
