Yesterday, Mike and I went on a hunt for a taller stand for the living room tv. With Mike's new speakers, the sound is coming from above the tv when we watch it. (I don't notice a huge difference, but it's driving the boy crazy!!)
We were out at several different stores for several hours (the whole day, pretty much). We didn't find what we were looking for (short of spending $350 for it).
Normally, this would annoy me. However, we had so much fun, it didn't matter.
After shopping at a number of different stores, we decided to stop for a late lunch/early dinner around 3:30 at the Picadilly Pub. I haven't been there in years, and I forgot how good it is. We both had a caesar salad and lobster bisque in a bread bowl. We split this peanut butter pie/cake thing for dessert.
Then we continued our shopping. Eventually, we ended up at Jordan's Furniture off of Rte. 9. They have a Bose store inside, so of course, we had to stop there. ;-) We sat through a demonstration of the newest home theater system (ONLY $4000). It was corny, and made me laugh, but you have to be impressed by the sound those little speakers put out. At the end, the salesman was there to answer questions. No one was really asking any, so Mike decided to ask one. (I still have no idea what he actually asked). The look on the salesman's face was hilarious. He did a great job of answering it, but you could tell he knew something was up. Mike ended up chatting with him for a bit afterwards. The poor guy probably thought Mike was some secret shopper sent by HQ or something.
So we're off today to some yard sales, to see if we have any better luck there.
