    Default Carba-Tec again

    I went to Carba-Tec in Melbourne this morning and the car park was full! There were a couple of demonstrations on that I wasn't aware of. I bought bags full of stuff including some Veritas toys, but I stopped before having to leave the truck as collateral.

    The regular Saturday Morning Gents were there; ever helpful and smiling. David even had his best blue pinny on and was serving up snags in bread. Another very pleasant shopping experience at Carba-Tec!

    Sob, sniff, I wish I had a Carba-Tec to take my money on a Sat Morning.
    Nice to hear a good story, other than the parking.

    Send your money to me immediately and I promise to give it to Carba-Tec next Saturday morning.

    I wish the Sydney shop was like that. Due to low stock holdings and lack of service I now buy from Qld and pay freight.

    The other strange thing about the sydney store is that they are only open on the weekends saturday mornings. If I'm coming from newy or in syd from something else it's tricky to get there that early.

    There's too much stuff to list (as was remarked upon at the time, the till receipt resembled a supermarket receipt for the weekly shopping), but suffice to say, I'm spending the day unwrapping stuff and trying to make space for it all.

    Just doing your bit for the economy! You haven't joined the BU revolution, perchance?
