On the way home from work yesterday morning my niece called and asked if I would haul some pellets to her home. I told her that I would be glad to help her, and asked where do you want me to meet you at? She said meet me at Lowe's.
So I get home switch trucks, make sure that the dually has enough fuel, and off to meet her.
I get there and she is standing by the lawn & garden area (in her army uniform), she sees me and tells a guy by her that is the truck she wants her pellets loaded on. The guy put 2 pallets on the dually, and told my niece "Remember you MUST pick up the remaining 2 tons today or the manager will void their sale".
I asked her what is he talking about? She said I was going to get two tons because you told me that I could get a 10% discount for being in the service. But when the kid rang up my order he asked do you have any other coupons you want to use today? She said well I do have one of those 10% off moving coupons, BUT I don't think I can use it along with the military discount. She said the kid said "I don't know who told you that, BUT they are wrong".
She lucked out and got 4 tons of Greenway Super Premium Pellet's, (regular sales price $197.00 a ton) for $157.60 a ton.
I told the kid on the forklift, don't worry we will be back in about 2 hours for the rest.
Found out the kid that rang her up did make a mistake :bug: , the manager said that he would honor the sale
, BUT all of the pellet's had to be picked up by closing time or he would give her a refund.
I wonder if the kid would have given her another 5% off if she paid with a Lowe's charge card :roll: ?
