The magic of money
My mother has never had a cell phone and wanted one that she could access the Internet and attend to her stock exchange online. Mother’s day was coming up in about three weeks and my brother and I decided to go together and get her a Blackberry phone. The salesman at the store told us they would be having a special offer in one week and we may want to consider waiting until then. We could purchase on phone at regular price and get 50% off a second one. I decided that I was in need of a new phone myself and this sound like a deal I could not refuse.
Also, Valentines day was a perfect time to give that special someone a gift that is very important. I decided to give my girlfriend a Blackberry for this occasion and went to purchase it. When I got to the store they told me they were out and would have some in about three days. I told them this was suppose to be for a valentine gift which was tomorrow. They called another store to see if they had any available; the manager told us he had one left and would hold it for me if I wanted. I let him know that I could give him my credit card to hold it. He said that was not necessary.
