20% off your next project...

Salut

This morning, an electrician came to the house as we need an electrical outlet installed in the closet (we'll place our water distributor there). We had a coupon stating that we'll give you 20% off your next project. So, the electrician comes in and tells us that for the 1 outlet, it will cost us the minimum charge of 150$. I kinda laughed at him right there. Then, MJ brought up the coupon and said that it should be minus the 20% from the coupon. The reply we got was quite comical: "well, actually, this coupon is only good for your next project, not the current one". Then, I really had a good time: in my mind, this is big time false publicity and I told him to pack his bags and to go rip off someone else... A few minutes later, I found someone else who will do it for 55$. We're kinda glad that we only had the free estimate on the 1st one... I tell you, some people: what a joke...

In the afternoon, we went at Southcenter Mall to visit Santa Claus with Alexandre. He was quite excited while he was waiting in line but when came the time to actually visit Santa, it became another story. He almost cried right away and the photograph didn't have the opportunity to take good pictures. The best that I could do out of 6 is on the site. Not a great one, but still, a nice memory of his first visit. I'm sure next time will be better!!

Tonight is the night that Sears is making their 2nd visit to our home. They'll replace the buffet, the hutch and 4 chairs. Hopefully, this time will be the right one as we're looking forward to start enjoying the kitchen set!

Cheers
