lowes' wins forever

We have emerged triumphant from Lowe's with a front door, a storm door...and patio furniture. It wasn't our fault. We were sitting on it waiting for help to find a swing for the back porch--not joking--and it was on sale. Then the lady just loaded it up and we paid for it and they took our money for goods and services, as one does in a capitalist society.

It was so odd to have someone willingly sell us a door, I'm not even joking. Like, he even seemed to want to. Who knew?

I am not certain I believe this outlandish tale of Lowe's selling you a door. It seems highly improbable.

Dude, I'm still reeling. Teh guy took us around and like, stayed in our budget. He even suggested less expensive alternatives. I have no idea what magic this was.

Oh, now you're just going into the realm of fairy tales.

It felt weirdly predestined, to be honest. We barely escaped without a wicker table and chairs to go along with it all.

Next time. You know they'll nail you on that next time... which is how fairy tales work, right?

AND they let you sit on the patio furniture? Madness.

Weirdly enough, my father used to always go by Lowe's or Home Depot when they were having sales so he could pick up a bunch of doors. When he moved, he had a collection of at least 10 doors just sitting in the garage.

All I'm saying is: it could have been weirder. You could have not needed that door and bought it anyway.

HUZZAH! I don't know why it was so difficult for you at Home Depot to find someone inclined to, you know, let you shop there, but hooray for Lowe's!

I'm sorry for your pain! But I enjoyed chuckling at HD incompetence in retrospect now that you are set.

At least you found something to buy at Lowe's!

Well yay Lowes! And seriously wtf Home Depot? I don't get it. Fail.
