For Nerissa’s birthday I ordered her a cotton track suit from CafePress.com. I only found it on Thursday night, three days before her birthday which was Monday. I pumped in some extra dough for shipping in the hopes that it would be in Newfoundland shortly after her birthday.
I go to work Monday, as I normally do and decide to go home for lunch. When I arrive I find a large package in the mail.
It’s her suit! How timely! It arrived on her birthday.
I give it to her and she seems to love it. She tries it on and the pants fit her perfecty but the top is very loose.
I email the company to see what they can do and here is their response:
Dear Gregory,
I am sorry the item you received does not fit perfectly. I want you to be 100% satisfied with everything you purchase at CaféPress.com. I’m processing a replacement for the whole tracksuit in a size small since I’m unable to send just the jacket. You should receive the replacement by May 29th.
There is no need for a return! I do not want you to incur any additional shipping charges. Please keep the original as our way of saying thanks for shopping at CaféPress.com. If there is anything else I can do for you please let me know.
We hope we have answered all of your questions. If not, please chat with us now.(Mon-Fri)
Best Regards
How awesome is that!
And to top it off I sent them an email expressing my gratitude and they replied very timely with a very nice and personalble email to conclude the deal. It was such a great experience.
I also submitted this to I Shop and Tell.

This guy in Virgina is trying to sue Burger King for giving him a wrong order. He asked for no pickle and no onions on two burgers and when he got those burgers, guess what was on them.
Gasp! Pickles and onions!
This man was allergic to one or the other and missed time off work and now he is asking for $100,000 (plus court fees).
He is sueing for negligence.
If he wins, I expect from now on we will have to sign a waiver before eating our fast food burgers.
You have to wonder though, if this guy was so severly allergic to a condiment, why was he ordering the food that contains it by default?

Yes, yes I know. I did it again. GregPike.ca has a new look. I assure you it was for a good reason.
The old GregPike.ca was built using a framework called Drupal. I don’t expect many of my regulars to understand what that means, but I had to make the change for two reasons:
- The old site was too constraining.
- SEO was atrocious (didn’t rank well in Google).
This new version is built using WordPress. I like this a lot more.
I am still adding elements but enjoy!
PS: Yes, your accounts no longer exist and if you want a new one, you will have to create it. I am really sorry about it, but there was no way around it.

Two youths racing on the highway in central Newfoundland are now facing some serious criminal sentences following an accident that killed a 70 year old lady. The 20 year old males have been charged with criminal negligence causing death, dangerous driving, and failure to remain at the scene. The ladies car was found semi-submerged in the waters off the causeway.
