About two and a half weeks ago, we finally agreed on a baby bedding set/theme for Jrew's baby room. However, it is only available online. So, we decided to go for it and I researched (I thought) who would be the cheapest website to order from. Here is the bedding.
So, I found a website that offered the site for $20 cheaper than the other websites and I happily placed my order. After checking my order status over a week's time, I realized the item was not shipped and I proceeded to call customer service. I was told the company didn't actually have the bedding in stock - were not sure when they would get it - and were not sure what day they would have it shipped to me. (not to mention, I had already paid $20 shipping).
After two weeks of waiting, I found a blanket that accompanies that set for $21 on another website. Long story short.. I wrote a summary of my situation into "Special Instructions" and asked that the company send the blanket asap so i could get paint colors picked out soon and begin decorating. I received a personal e-mail that assured me the blanket would arrive on Wednesday or Thursday of next week and that I may want tot consider ordering the bedding from them as well. The customer service rep said it would arrive next week as well.
Okay, the story does gets more complicated and as you all know I could ramble forever. so here's the fastest way to say the rest. :)
* I canceled the first order and placed the bedding order with the new website which cost $20 more but included free shipping.
* I also e-mailed and requested to cancel the $21 blanket since it was just so I could match colors.
* Received personal e-mail again that the blanket order was canceled and bedding would be on the way.
* Told Thomas I canceled the blanket order and replaced a new bedding set order. He was happy and said I didn't need to cancel the blanket.
* I e-mailed my new friend and asked if she could add the blanket back to the larger order so shipping would be free on both items.
* Received personal e-mail today that blanket & bedding set will be here next week. :)
* now that you are sure I am insane... just look at step 1 of getting our baby's room ready! :)

I love the bedding! It's great! I'm glad the story has a good ending! Hopefully next week you don't end up with three blankets and no bedding set.
That is a cool bedding...I am so excited for you. The Rose family is truly blessed by all the new blessing in the family. Thomas and Donald's grandmother would be so proud. I can wait to see your little one.
