Screw Amazon

On Sunday, Jess and I ordered new cell phones from Amazon. They were to ship in 2-3 days. I paid for 2 day shipping so I’d have them by Friday.

Well, today’s Friday. They still haven’t even shipped. So, I cancelled my order and placed a new order with Intellenet/LetsTalk. It should ship TODAY and, because of overnight shipping, I should get them by Monday.

Cross your fingers for me.

Amazing

I just realized, the other day, that something amazing has happened to me.

I went to AT&T wireless to sign up for service, and no deposit was required.

I went to T-Mobile to verify my elegibility, and no deposit was required.

I went to Sam’s Club and applied for a credit card and was APPROVED.

I guess spending a few months fixing my credit was worth it in the end. It’s just silly that I it needed to be done in the first place.
