So, thanks to financial prompting, I got my hubby off his duff and made him do some online shopping for our Movie Room Theater chairs. Now, you would think since I moved to the Knob I would have ALL these great stores at the end of the crazy highway system here. HA! Yep, this is what I thought too. Boy was I so wrong. I went to SEVEN, yep, seven furniture stores and couldn't find a simple theater chair to save my life. I went to Best Buy and HH Gregg--two electronic stores who SPECIALIZE in said products--yeah, get this?!?! They don't sell theater chairs. What's up with that? Now, you can get loveseats that recline, massage your back and even come with a COOLER in between the seats, but this is not a stream-lined simple recliner like you would find in a movie theater. I don't want a massage while watching a movie with my family. I have a bar within 10 feet of my theater room, so I don't need a cooler attached to the chair. I do not need to sit next to someone. I want a divider. I want my own cup holder. I want the person next to me to have their own cup holder. Such simple requests. SO EXPENSIVE TO find. Okay, so at this point, I was thinking WE CAN FINANCE. Who cares the cost? I just want to find simple, reclining black leather chairs with cup holders. I found some! YEP! At Nebraska Furniture Mart. They will even ship them for ONLY $6,000. Interest free for 18 months. WOOT. My Prince Charming about had a heart attack. WHAT? For Chairs. No way.
You know what this did? Yep, it prompted him to get off his bum and do his own research. Mind you, he never got in his car and had to deal with the big city traffic, but he did manage to find a place that had chairs at a GREAT price and they shipped them within a week. How is that for wonderful? Simple theater chairs at a great price and they came to me.

Now the funny part---I wasn't home for the delivery. I had to get my hair done. My neighbor works from home, so he said that would be fine. He came over, opened my garage door and signed the sales receipt. You know how he signed it, "Billy Boob Thornton." I really think I'm starting to like my neighbor's smart-alec sense of humor. LOL! Too much fun!
Nice, beautiful colored up the gray hairdoo! |
