Why is it Called Common Sense?

It really isn't all that common.  It's actually quite rare I've discovered.

While I was at the tack store yesterday, they had a huge sale going on.  They also had a neat thing that if you bought three items with a clearance tag (bright orange, really hard to miss) you can get a 4th free, and then every item after that is 25% off.

Simple and easy to follow, yes?

Well apparently not.

While I was standing in line, (I was 3rd) thinking this wouldn't take too long, the people in front of me kept just not getting it.  They had four, regular priced items and were like: we get the 4th free right?

Okay seriously?  I thought.  The funniest was that I was staring at a fluroscent orange sign with big black writing that clearly explains how the sale works.

The next person in line goes, this time it's someone with three sale stickered items.  These are yellow, not orange.  He also asked if he got the 4th free.

Nope, not bright fluroscent orange people.

It made me really, really happy that I don't work in retail.  I'd rather get bitten on the arm than deal with people who just don't get clearly explained and really bright orange with black letters things.  Like my mom said, I'd probably throw things at the customers, which probably wouldn't go over well.

Other than that though I had a lovely week!

I got to sleep in both monday and tuesday morning.  Monday I actually slept in (till 8! woo!)  Tuesday I woke up at 5:30.  But that's okay cause I read till eight then continued my day!

Work was good, just brutally hot.

Then saterday I got to go on a nice trail ride with a great friend and awesome weather!  I was also relieved that my wild child from a few months ago left and my usual, level headed awesome trail riding pony was back!
