I have seriously had it go wrong so many times I am tempted to mix my own paint when I go to those kinds of stores. its fun too! sorry your experience turned out so badly. hey anyone who can juggle and schedule FOUR kids(I have 4 too) surely deserves to get what she asked and paid for. I tend to play the mileage card. It is 50 miles at LEAST ONE WAY to go to those stores so if they screw up I am gonna be TICKED because then I have to drivve another hundred miles to return it and return homeMoonDoghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11707506968348810606noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14252293.post-243745884389632982008-12-10T14:09:00.000-07:002008-12-10T14:09:00.000-07:00Oh, Brianna, been there, yuck!
