Drove 25 miles to a fired earth store today.
Walked in with noisy DS in his pushchair so got the attention of the woman behind till. Then took the tile out of my handbag to try and match it with the ones on display. There were no other customers as it was a small store.
She proceeded to ignore us.
Eventually, when she'd rung another customer, we explained would need 3 square metres of this which works out at £££££. We looked into delivery and also asked about the lacquer/resin used as they're porous tiles.. not glazed. She couldn't help us with this.
So, order them and also spend £17 quid (apparently refundable within 28 days but obv have to factor petrol in for 50 mile round trip ) on other samples for another part of the house.
Also bought a silicone lined e-cloth for cleaning my aga
So I was hardly passing through. You would think that they would give me the frigging catalogue for nowt wouldn't you?
Is it so much to chuck in a MARKETING item for free!!!?
