Total Recall

We started homeschooling when Jesse was in Kindergarten. It was then we bought office chairs to be used with our long, folding table that we all shared. We just kind of chose a chair John and I thought was comfy. We actually bought three chairs, one for John too. We've used these chairs for eight years. They were getting wobbly and I'd thought about replacing them a couple of times.

Last weekend, I received a letter from Office Depot the chairs had been recalled. We were to return them to Office Depot for a gift card for the full price. Really?! Well, since I haven't been well this week, we didn't get to take them until today (Saturday 28th). It turned out they gave us full price back (which I bought them all on sale), plus tax (our state taxes have increased since then too). Wow! We had a nice budget now to buy new chairs.

We set the girls loose in the Depot to seek out their new chair. Who would have thought it would take so long! lol  There were turquoise, purple, hot pink, and of course your basic black, chairs. They each picked out the chair they wanted, the same chair but different colors. Of course! These chairs are vast improvements over what they before. Okay, they were more expensive but the girls are bigger now, and comfort matters when you are sitting at your desk as long as they do some days. After the gift card, we paid out $43 and some change for three new desk chairs. I'm pretty happy with that! So is John. LOL

Our three new chairs!

Jesse's new chair; she also flipped her desk over to black.

Chloe chose blue...who would've guessed. LOL
