After my last post, I used my Groupon to buy some nice things for myself. I needed a new calendar for my drab janitor closet office, and I usually wait until after the new year to get them on sale. I also found a couple DVDs I wanted. I made my order and patiently waited all week for them to arrive. But the last laugh was on me.
First I ordered 2 DVDs. I ordered Shaun of the Dead, because it’s a hilarious cult zombie classic! (Little trivia about Sally, she loves zombie movies, the campier the better!) I also ordered Run Fat Boy Run, because it’s actually a very inspiring movie (yes it involves running) and a cute love story, with typical Simon Pegg humor thrown in for good measure. Great movies for the collection. However, this is what I got instead…
I felt like the shipping facility was judging me. Hey I run several days a week and work out pretty regularly thank you!
But I also ordered my new calendar. And the correct calendar arrived. So maybe they were actually in on my little joke and making a hat tip to my calendar choice by sending DVD substitutes.
See, it was dead on!


I’m not sure the correct calendar makes up for those DVDs.
Haha! In all fairness, I called them and they are express shipping me the correct DVDs and also sending me a return mailer for the wrong DVDs. The customer service makes up for it for sure!
Yep the dvd’s were not even close…. funny that I saw Shaun of the dead the other night !! Have you seen Hot Fuzz by Simon Pegg, just as good….
I have a Dave Lebovitz book for you! Send me your address when you get a chance?
love those films, enjoy!!
