Back at the beginning of the new flower bed project I went to a local sprinkler supply shop and bought the drip irrigation system that is mostly above ground. Mrs Carrera was not wowed by that option because she had been reading on-line and looking at the totally different system. It uses a 3/8 inch plastic hose that you just punch the holes and insert a tee connection and water a specific plant. Since that is what she has decided is the best and no sites mention the commercial stuff like I had she asked that I take back the parts I had bought.
It is a small one man operation and his wife is the bookkeeper. I walked in and put the stuff on the counter and asked him "have you ever know a wife to just change her mind completely for no apparent reason" and he just stood there. After a 10 second pause he pointed over his shoulder and said "my wife is right around the corner, I refuse to answer your question on the grounds it might get me in trouble" I told him he is a wise man.
I did buy some other stuff but I still walked out with cash and the parts.
