Shipping snafus

Well today is May 2nd and I’ve been patiently waiting for an order I placed with staples.com to arrive. The order was placed on April 26th and “shipped” April 27th with an ETA of April 29th. Go figure... it didn’t arrive and when I went to check the tracking number UPS just says the label has been created but nothing has actually shipped yet. A bit frustrating but not the end of the world as this order is for a printer that is replacing one that still works but is on its last legs. 

Now comes the fun part, today I run over to my local Staples store to pickup some other stuff. Well low and behold the store has the printer in stock! When I called Staples.com they can’t stop the order from shipping yet... insert eye roll here!

So I bought the printer at the store and will just return the one that they ship since they can’t stop it.
