The Home Depot Bargainista

We purchased 6 windows when we bought the house. We just got around to putting them in this weekend to find they are wrong. So no problem we go to return them and spoke with W. W told Jeff we were def told the wrong way to measure so bring them back and order new ones. Well we did and F started telling Jeff and completely WRONG way to install windows and told us it would be 160 a window. So we leave and Jeff calls W last night. He said come on in that F was wrong and he would take care of us. Our original order was 118 for 3 and 130 for the other 3. Jeff walked outta there last night paying 118 for all 6 a savings of 282!!!
