Yup, we're decently diligent shoppers and the luxury high-end just wins with my pard. What can I say. Mabbe you can talk her down, like a gangster movie: "Okay, Miss, put down the credit card and back away slowly, nobody's gonna get hurt."
Our first round with Duxiana we worked out that we spend more time in bed than anyplace else. Also as we traveled, we got experience with various brands simply though our overnights in hotels & motels. This round we've gone to about 4 stores: an organic store, Sleep Number, Sattva, and Duxiana. Duxiana just whispers to her.
Plus, the check engine lights never go on and it's hard to steal.
Got the supplies we need: shoulder dolly, roller dolly, and rubber mallet from the neighborhood tool library. Very busy place tonight. The shoulder dolly was missing since 2014, according to their computers, but the experienced lead thought a moment and walked back with it! After the $36.50 senior membership costs I asked how much for the rental ... no extra charge! Called Ace Hardware and their shoulder dolly can be bought for $50, and the wheeled dolly rented for $15/day.
Straw haul: took 3 trips, 4.5 hours, got the job done. Looks much better. Will find more or get chips in the fall for a refresh.
Off to sleep, perchance to dream, but in the sleep of luxury what dreams may come ...
