Good Business

Okay everyone, I don't usually do this. I also realize that after not blogging for the last few months, this is a terrible way to start. But, while my kids nap I have a window of about 10 minutes here that I wanted to use to share this with you.

Something I LOVE is good business. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE it! If there is a company that I have worked with that has treated me above and beyond (especially when it's a small purchase) I want everyone to know about it. That way, if someone is in need of similar items they have a great place to go. Recently I have had 2 of these experiences, so I'm going to share.

The first one is a company called Inspired LED. Jake and I were wanting to do some under-counter lighting in our kitchen. After going to our local home improvement store we realized all the crazy holes we were going to have to drill, all the wires we were going to have to find something to do with, and the crazy expense to get it to look right. I could not believe it! So I came home and began looking online. I came across this company on Amazon, and then just went directly to their site. Amazing! We ended up with some awesome lighting that was super easy to install, and because of the ease of hiding the tiny plug, we decided not to even hard wire them in. We received our order within 5 days. When we started putting the lights up, we realized there was a small issue with one of our strands. I called, someone answered (who I could understand!) on the 2nd ring (can you believe it?) and they immediately sent a new strand which I got in less than 3 days.

The second company I just dealt with today. I have been trying to order the conversion kits for Cady and Wyatt's beds so that we can Cady's mattresses off the floor, and then we'll have Wyatt's when he's ready. It has been such a hassle. I finally found a site where I could order Cady's from here in Texas, but I'm going to have to go get them when they come in....in 8 to 10 weeks. Ugh! I found a store locally that sells Wyatt's crib and after going to the store 3 times, calling 4 times, they can't decide what they want to charge me...lovely. I decided that I would look online today and see what I could find. I found Bambi Baby a store out of Hoboken, New Jersey. They carried Wyatt's crib, but I couldn't find the rails online so I called. Someone (again that I understood) answered on the first ring!!! The lady sweetly looked up and found that they carried the rails but they were out of stock, however a new shipment would be in on Friday. They will ship them out that day, I should have them by next Friday. Shipping was free, and there was no tax...

Just wanted everyone out there to know, just in case you are needing any baby items or lighting. Two totally random items, I know! BUT, good service is good service and I wanted to pass it along!

One of these days, I'll update about what we've been up to. Until then, I am in shopping heaven! I better stop while I'm ahead!
