This post is a bit about different things, items & happenings...first off...remember this sweater I posted about a few days ago??
Do not order it! It is absolute crap! Like something you'd receive from one of the low priced, discount sites.... from China. I read the description carefully prior to ordering....and the photo leads you to believe it is a sweater!
It is not....but rather a cheaply made, screen printed top. I reached out to Hudson Bay Boutique to demand a refund...no response yet, The sheep sweater...(gorgeous btw) and sneakers are awesome quality...so not sure why this one did not make the cut. But be warned...things are not always as they appear...
In the future...I'll wait until my order has arrived- then post about things I have purchased....
So...my HP printer died. Neither Mr. Seventies or I could remember how long we've been using it...but it's safe to say about twelve years or so. Although we don't print that much...usually receipts or as Mr. Seventies pointed out....Amazon return labels.
Not wanting to be without a printer....or wanting to spend hundreds of dollars....we picked up this Canon wireless all in one (printer, copier & fax machine) from a local electronics store. I checked printers at Wal Mart....and to be honest...the two "associates" were so annoying....I left. The third one quickly advised she only did phones...and walked away. Gotta love Wal Mart....
And the sales associate was such a great help! However, the ink cartridges were about half the price of the printer! Way cheaper on Amazon...I ordered two of the exact same cartridges...for less than the cost of one at the electronics store! Ink cartridges came with the printer for initial set up & use only...
Set up was easy....it was up & running in no time. We dropped off the previous printer at the provincial recycle depot...
Now I'm "old school" when it comes to headsets. Yes, I have Air Pods (only last four hours on one charge) and in the ear headsets.....but when watching shows on my laptop....I prefer comfortable, over the ear headsets.
Enter Exhibit A - upon removing them from my laptop....the jack broke off & was stuck in the laptop. Enter Mr. Seventies & a set of pliers....and this is what I was left with...
To be fair....this was the fourth headset I ordered from Amazon - the first three...quit working after a few months! And then this...I was determined to move on & find another set I liked...and stop ordering the same set!!
I packed them up, printed a return label (on my new printer)....and dropped them off at Purolator...which is now the preferred method for Amazon returns.....guess after the last Canada Post strike they had enough with them. Me too.
Then I noticed, a "restocking fee" had been deducted from the refund. Wait...what? I was returning them because they fell apart! Amazon assured I would be reimbursed for the fee....no worries. Deep breaths.
Some returns I've noticed - you are requested to pay for return shipping. If you have Prime - don't do it! Contact an Amazon associate & request a pre-paid shipping label since shipping is included with Amazon Prime...no need to pay for shipping twice!!
One item I ordered arrived & I'm crushing on it! A "boot" for my Stanley cup! It saves wear & tear on the bottom...and looks adorable in the meantime.
*Note* - my 40 oz cup - is too tall for the cupholder in our SUV! The console is in the way...so my cup has to tilt sideways. Next time we try out a vehicle...I will test the console space with my cup!! Details are important...
Not sponsored...but I'm in love with their amazing pieces...be advised they do charge a $10 restocking fee for returns...
I ordered this adorable jumpsuit (pictured on their site) in size large....and it fits perfectly! Light fabric...perfect for late spring, summer & early fall!! I'm happy the legs are tapered...I'm not a fan of "wide leg" everything...and appreciate the cuff turned up. I'm all about comfort....
That is it for me, today! The temperatures are very mild here....with rain showers predicted for the next few days....but it beats snow!
Have an awesome weekend & hope you will stop back on Monday!
Til next time.....
