November............ what's for dinner?

Then their spinach/cheese dip sounded so great, we had that with veggies instead of bread................... then the stuffed potato skins were calling out "Try us, try us".  So of course we did.  The fish I planned to make tonight will keep for tomorrow. LOL

I got an email from Sur La Table this morning. It said for 3 days only the KA spiralizer/peeler was 35% off. I put one in my cart but the price came up as only 20% off. I start a chat with a rep and she says that the ad she has says Up To 35% off. I say Nay, Nay. My ad says differently. She tells me to call customer service. Instead, I printed off the email and went into the store. After a bit of futzing around, checking their emails and calling other stores, they sold it to me for 35% off. Jeeze!

I was in Ottawa a few weeks ago.  Price for the hotel was quoted $367./ night.  I said "Gulp" but couldn't find anything else.............. when I got to my room, on the back of the door was a sign "Daily rate for this room is $225. for one person $25. more for a second person.  I called the front desk........... "Sorry, the rate quoted is correct, we don't post rates in the rooms"  I was given the same story by the concierge, then the supervisor, then the supervisor's supervisor.  I was ready to call the local newspaper or the Chamber of commerce.


Next morning I went down and asked for the manager.  Concierge asked me "Is there something that I can do for you???" I explained the problem, and she said "Oh, I apologize for the error and credit your card right away!"  Jeez, what did she know that the others didn't know?
