Our refrigerator saga...

The other day my wife informed me that the fridge had given up the ghost.
I did the defrost thing as it was covered in ice in the freezer which was cold but the bottom fridge part not so much. Clearing the ice out helped but, it's 20+years old and she doesn't trust it.

Her only criteria for a new one was it had to be delivered today (Friday).

Got a fridge ordered yesterday from HD no problem as they said it would be delivered today.

Check on the delivery as we weren't getting timely emails/updates.

Still on track according to them after calling YESTERDAY late to confirm delivery today. They said it would be delivered between 10am and 6PM. Great, an 8 hour window when they said it'd be a four hour one.

Still nothing about what hour they'd be arriving so called again @11 or so. It's now going to be delivered next Tuesday.

WTF?

We got in the car this noon after having lunch to go to Lowes. Same fridge, in stock can be delivered tomorrow. SOLD!

Cancelling the order at HD is a pain in the you know what, but I got it done.
In the mean time, I put the freezer door back on and started it up again as it does get cold enough that we won't loose too much food

Wife is happy she's getting a fridge that works, tomorrow, but it should have been today.

Thanks for listening/reading. Had to vent somewhere.

We're having Panda Express takeout tonight for dinner.

Have a Safe 'n Sane Fourth everybody!
