HOLY SHIT..DOLLAR GENERAL ROCKS.

Remember when I told you that it took forever to get in touch with anyone at the Jazz camera company to replace my broken camera..and after not hearing from them after leaving all the messages, I wrote an email to Dollar General and said 'remember when I told you I loved the camera? well, not so much any more..4 days later I get a phone call from Jazz camera and they are all "We're so sorry, what can we do to help..etc. etc. etc."...said they were sending me a new one..well that was 3/18...I was getting ready to send another email to Dollar General when today I get a package delivered by Ron and the box is big...really big..and inside is not only my replacement camera with a bigger memory card .there is a 1.5 color screen camcorder with 180* flip review screen that I can upload directly to my TV set..and a digital camcorder. There was a letter inside that said they had received my camera and apologized for not contacting me earlier, and the new camera was inside and also the 2 video cameras. Feel free to use these cameras with attached 2GB memory card. Enjoy taking pictures ..mike..who is the guy I talked to the last time. It's good to be Queen. This is what happens when you make friends with your local store and bake pies and cookies for them. I'm sure Jazz wouldn't have done all that out of the goodness of their little crooked heart and that a phone call or two from the biggest distributor helped them get their ass in gear...Who ever is responsible, I'm a happy old broad.
Now I have to figure out how to work them. I think I will make home made pizzas to lure Jennifer and Jason over and see if he can't help me figure out how to work them. I'll be doing videos of Dexter and of my shinny little town of West. Hot dang. My Mother was right...the squeaky wheel does get oiled first. Life is good.

I think the company heard about your infinite reach to thousands of devotes and knew if they didn't do right by you, they'd not sell another camera in the country.

The power of the pen and blogging!

SCORE!!!
Game point, too.
Don't 'cha just love it when that kind of blessing happens?
I bought an old cordless phone with a built-in answering machine at a yard sale one time, and since it didn't have an instruction manual in the box with it, I couldn't get it to work. There was a 1-800-get-help line number on the back, so I called it. The dude on the other end of the line asks me for the model number, looks it up on the database & tells me they were all recalled for defective handsets. Box it up and send it to...
I interrupted to explain I bought it second hand at a yard sale.
Dude days that don't mean shit, put it back in the box and send it to X.
Tho weeks later, I got a brand new phone with answering machine, and it had only cost me $5.
God id good, and Thompson Consumer Electronics ain't bad neither!
