Well done, Noreen!

Noreen, I'm going to add my " ruffen-tuffen, schpitten-schpatten" to Norma's " Rickin, Rackin, frigatorshepek" for you. And she called you! Never mind brass balls: she had a rock for a brain.

Carey... that's an insult to rocks, LOL! Hugs, Noreen

:D Thanks, Georgia! Noreen

This (increasing the original quote) is what I was thinking too as I read your "rant". But your gunnysack remark was priceless. Even if the woman had accepted your price, she sounds like someone you wouldn't want to do business with anyway

Mirjam, your comments on "haggling" were interesting. As you know, it is much less common here. Reading about different cultures is one of the reasons I enjoy this newsgroup.

Now that's just mean... said she who only had 50 minutes of hard labour pains. Go ahead, hate me for it, I don't care! muhahahaha

It's unbelievable, Noreen! SHE really has a problem!! I don't think this is about not appreciate hand work, it's about some people's personality. Believe me, she may often come in situations where people react! I think you were vise to keep so calm. But I think people who knows a lady who act like this, are not flabbergasted more than once!LOL!

AUD ;-)

LOL! Well, that teenager WAS mean, and I still hope she found out that it was much more fun going in than coming out! Nah, I don't hate you for it at all, one of my friends had NO labour whatsoever, she sat on the 'can' and out swished her daughter! Noreen

ROTFL!!! Excellent!

Sorry *you* had to put up with that gawd-awful *family*!!!

Higs, Katherine (who doesn't want to talk about it!)

Yers.

Yes, very interesting. I have read about haggling, but never actually done it myself. I have "bargained" for cars, but not really for smaller items.
