I looked at my suitcases this morning, one was too big, and the other not quite big enough so went to Walmart to see how much they were. I bumped into my friend Carla as I was going in, she works there as the Methodist Church don't pay enough for their pastors to live on (my words, not hers) and she walked with me to the suitcases. We saw one I thought would be suitable, the price ticket on the shelf said $39, we agreed that was not a bad price, and I trundled off to the checkout. When scanned at the checkout the price came up as $74. I know better than to hold up the line and argue with the little girl at the checkout, so I paid up and made a beeline for Customer Services. They refunded the difference.
It's quite nice isn't it, I like the outside pockets too, and a feature of it is that it is lightweight. While I was swinging it around saying how light it was Carla reminded me it will be heavier when it's filled. So I guess you could say it was a bargain for $39, or £25.
The rest of the day has just been spent packing it and making sure I'm organised.
Yesterday I had a run out to Norman, to the Barnes & Noble bookshop, I wanted them to look at my C-Nook as I can't retrieve my e-mails, it's one of the best places in Oklahoma for customer service, but unfortunately they couldn't help me as I can't remember the password of my e-mail account. But never mind I didn't buy it for e-mails, I've got 68 books on it.
While there I went to their Starbucks in the middle of the store.
