George and I got back from Costco around five, but I've been on the move ever since. We went in there and found Advil (which I wasn't looking for), air filters (we also weren't looking for), and for reasons I'll never understand George wanted me to talk to the person in the eletronics section. Low and behold, Costco had the laptop I'd wanted and we bought one in-store. I know I ordered from Apple, but after the payment failed (even when I'd updated it) I decided I was done. Not only was there a fifty dollar discount, but ordering and picking up the device was super esy. I gave the recpt to a guy, went into the bathroom, when I came back the computer was in the cart, and George had the recept. Simple easy and guess what, the debit card took. And, I didn't get sticker shock. In fact I felt good. Okay a little nervus when I tapped to pay, but it worked! It's paid outright. No installment plan, and setting up my machine was super easy. I have a few settings to tweek, but nothing I can't handle. I'm doing good.

That Costco run sounding way better than dealing with Apple's site honestly, glad the card finally cooperated lol. Nothing like paying outright and not stressing over installments, that's a real win. Congrats on the new laptop, hope the settings tweaking goes smooth!

Apple designed their products to be stupid easy. They wanted their customers to pull their deviceses out of boxes and be able to turn them on and go. In fact, Apple lets you turn on Voiceover or any other accessibility setting on the set up screen. And, that makes setup so easy.

I know. I need to get better about posting like I used to. I still come here daily, I just don't post like I used to. I'm hoping to change that, because I'm sick of thease single digit earnings.

I knew Costco sells eletronics, I just didn't think it'd be that easy to buy one.
