Loving Best Buy Today!

I just had to share this one with you all...
Today, we decided to take the boys to the park for a train and carousel ride.  We had a wonderful time.  Afterwords we stopped by Best Buy to pick up some headphones.  Well whenever I go into BB, I always take a look at the printers.  I have a thing for printers, especially ones that work well for my fabric photo transfers...and of course when there's a sale on inks...I'm on it.
 So my DH, and boys take off to look for headphones and I head over to the printers.  I approach one that reads "FREE...Artisan 710/ Regular Price $179.99." I stopped, read it again and again and again.  Trying to find the catch...but there wasn't one.  I immediately went to the manager and said...I'll take this printer please for "Free."  She paused and wanted me to show her what I was talking about and so I did...
She read the sign and paused and then told me to wait a minute...
She went and made a few phone calls...
and 20 minutes later resurfaced and said...
"The printer is yours!"
I was "Shocked!"
I really didn't think I would get it!
But they had to honor their sign I guess,
(which by the way...she was holding onto like a hawk! I couldn't get a picture of it!) 
That was fine with me though...hee hee!
She met me over at the registers...rang me up..
And...
I walked out of BB with this printer BRAND NEW!!!!
for
FREE!
C'mon now...How GOD... Sa-Weet was that?
Now if this wasn't great enough (I'm just sayin)...
I already have an Artisan 800 which is what I use for my photo transfers.

And...
This Artisan 710 uses the same Awesome Ink!!
Oh Yeah!!!
I am super excited right about now!!!!
Just Loving BB today!
Happy Sunday Friends!

Post Script...greedy husband just said you should have got two and sold one to us for $50.00. How sad is that? lol He forgot about "Bird in the hand..."
