I needed a new one soon anyway... so I picked out a new phone and while the guy is trying to get the update online, I went and picked a mobile charger... by the time I got the phone upgrade online, in the store, I had waited so long (it took almost two hours), he discounted the mobile charger to FREE(!! ) and with the technology upgrade I got another $100's off the purchase, and when it was all said and done... another $40 mail in rebate!! Doubled my minutes for only $20 more! I mean, just great service! I was surprised! Whew!
Lmao!
Some people get all the luck

WoW Capt,
Next time you are taking me with you to get a new phone.Mine maybe becoming obsolete(is that right word?)
Capt... you have to be the only exception to the rule... I've always come out on the "short" side of these deals.. I used to do all this work for my company (32 cell phones) AND never got a good deal until I turned it over to my son... I guess he talks the lingo?Quote:

Wow, you guys were saying before about the storms you were getting; I just heard a weather warning that Chicago is in for severe thunder storms in about a half hour; gusts up to80 mph and hail the size of golf balls...
All kidding aside, I could have called ahead and acted POed, but I've done business with them for years and everybody know me! It would be like walking into gramma's kitchen and complaining about the biscuits!
They didn't have to do anything, but they did!
And while I was waiting, a young guy came in.. Peddling a coupon book to the clerk. The clerk said, "I got one." So the young guy turns to me to see if I was interested... gave his schpeel... from D.A.R.E... I had given $50 earlier to the FAST (Florida Association of State Troopers) for their teddy bear fund.. so I caved and said, "OK" His buddy walked in and mentioned they were former G.I.'s... the first guy was a former Marine, and when I showed him my "old phone" had a ring tone that is the Marine Corp theme, he GAVE me the discount book that would have cost $20! IT WAS A GOOD DAY!!
FOUR!!Quote:

"Bunker down?" That's what I intend to do after I tie down the house with chains. In the news they showed a couple homes that were crushed by big ol' trees that were snapped in two and a few cars blown over... oh well, me man; right?Quote:
