Cyber Monday Hell


i am so not a shopper. i just finished shopping online for “Cyber Monday” and i’m a nervous wreck. Master was laughing at me. Because B is having such a hard time worrying about Christmas presents for Gavin, Master wanted to buy him the one thing he wanted. “Thomas & Friends TrackMaster Thomas @ Action Canyon”. Yes, my grandson is a Thomas the Train fiend.

So, i finally found that damn thing on Amazon.com and presents for 2 more of the grandkids as well. Unfortunately, because i was logged in as Master, it defaulted shipment to us. Well, i didn’t want it here. It was free shipping, so i wanted shipment to go straight to B. i was able to change the other 2 things i got to be shipped to her. Do you think it would let me change the Thomas one? Oh no. Not even after i called Amazon. That sucker was already on the truck. Since when is anything shipped that fast?

So i ended up ordering another Thomas to be shipped to B and we will just refuse shipment of the one coming here. See…shopping is just too complicated for me. Only i could manage to mess up online shopping. i thought it would be cool to take advantage of Cyber Monday early, since everything is geared toward East Coast time. The only order i didn’t mess up was the one for Hannah. Ordering from Disney.com was so much easier. Of course, i did that one first, so maybe i became over confident.

i still have Master to buy for and there are a few things that need to be ordered online. i would say that i’m confident that i won’t mess that up, but since there is shopping involved, there is always the possibility of a huge disaster.

Think of online shopping as having a learning curve and you just went a little around the bend **smiles**just kidding.

Do me a favor if you would please? If you figure out what to buy for a Master who has everything He either wants or could get Himself, please give me an idea....i have no clue what to buy for Sir Geoffrey. :(

Anyway, happy cyber Monday to you as well. :)

hugs,
