Irony

[Tjohn]

Tjohn, thanks for the warning, which I will keep in mind if we get a crossbow. It seems we are not getting a crossbow any time soon. My husband was so angry after trying for an hour to get authorization to return the yoga mats that I'm not letting him near any weaponry for quite a while!

@marlingardener Were you charged for the mat!? Surely, Amazon is very generous on the phone complaint. It's not even your fault that you were sent those! You are indeed an honest and decent couple.

I hope you don't have to drive to the post office to return them.

Amazon will refund our payment for the crossbow when they receive the return. No, we don't have to drive five miles to the post office to return the package. We get to drive 20 miles to a UPS drop-off since the local one is too small to accept the package.
We are honest, and try to be decent, but sometimes it isn't easy!
