Adventures in M - Day 3 - The Waiting

doo, doo, doo... waiting, waiting, waiting. Technically, this is 2 days from the first order. Will it come today?

I kept looking through the website, reading as much as possible, learning about the products, figuring out what I would buy in my next order - we would certainly require the hand dishwashing detergent, and more laundry detergent since we do infinite laundry. Or at least it seems that way to me. Moving from a single life to a partnership with three children aged 9 to 14 is quite shocking - in many ways, laundry being one of the lesser of them. But that is another story.

I noticed something weird though, while I was looking through the Product Store. The whole benefit of joining M as a Preferred Customer (PC) is that you receive honkin' discounts off the Regular price. But for every single product the Regular and PC prices were the same. I noticed it but assumed (never, never do this) that it was because Canadian customers were no longer saving money due to the recession/exchange rate/alien fly-bys/whatever and that we would just have to accept it. Silly me, I just forgot all about it and moved on with the fun part - the shopping.

And waiting.
