PhotoStory Friday: Buy Now, Receive Never


Hosted by Cecily and MamaGeek


Every time I post another flower shot, I envision you instantly falling asleep and hitting your head on your monitor. Death by floral boredom.

So, off we go.

Whenever I walk past the Allium perennials in my garden, I find myself giving them the patented stare of damnation. I bought the bulbs on the internet because they were out of stock at the local nurseries at the time.

The 4 bulbs plus shipping cost about 2 frazillion dollars. As soon as I clicked the BUY NOW button, the "The Page Cannot Be Displayed" error vomitted all over the place.

I wish they'd customize the error to be realistic: "Wow. Sucks to be you. Your credit card might be charged double. You may or may not EVER receive your product and your e-mail address will likely be spammed. Have a great day."


After months of nagging, I eventually received the dead product and ended up purchasing them from a local nursery. *Insert a sigh HERE, HERE and HERE*.
