I ordered a “big and tall” robe for Jeff. It finally arrived in the mail. I’m excited about embroidering something on the front , however, I still don’t have my card reader. I found a great design site and I ordered a set of monogram designs. Easy to download. Now I just have to decide if I want to put Dad, Pop, Father, or King, on front of the robe.
Mom and I enjoying many talks about embroidery. We talk about pre-wound bobbins and I decide to purchase some. They are fairly inexpensive and will be a great thing to have when I’m in the middle of an embroidery job and run out of bobbin thread.
I used Google to look online. I found a great price, at the same store I ordered the card reader from, and decided on a set of 144 pre-wound bobbins. When I clicked on my basket to check-out I had the option to select the store check-out, or Google check-out. Well, I’ve never been given that choice before. Is it because I searched with Google? I hit the Google check out, no reason really, and I got a huge surprise. With the Google check-out I got a coupon for $20 off of my order!
Now, I’m a bit of a skeptic so I hit the back button. I tried the store check-out to see if I was going to get the same $20 deduction. No siree. It was a Google exclusive. So I hit the back button and selected the Google check-out again. The $20 deduction from my total was still there so I took it. Far be it from me to look a gift google in the mouth.
Well, my card reader hasn’t arrived yet, but I’m satisfied tonight with my purchases. It will probably be on the slow boat from China also, but hey, $20 is $20.
Thanks for listening ~
Emily, Jeff and the pets.
