Seeing Todd so excited about using this vacuum cleaner reminds me of a funny story from last year. So, last fall, some gentlemen came to our door offering to clean our carpets for free. Camden and Todd were playing in the backyard. I thought it was great idea since our carpets were in need of cleaning. All that was required was that we listen to their speel on buying a Kirby vacuum. Well, they asked if they could train a new guy and somehow, the hour long process turned in going on 2 hours and 15 minutes. Needless to say, we listened (and let them clean our living room and hallway) and then kindly told them we were not interested. Yes, even for 50 dollars a month we are NOT interested. Their key selling point was do you choose dirt or do you choose the Kirby. The guy kept saying, "So, you choose dirt?" I had finally had enough of saying no nicely, so I said Well, if we have to choose then, yes-we choose dirt over DEBT! That shut him up pretty quick and we were finally rid of them! I think Todd will be very unhappy if I allow anything like that again. He was appalled that I had let them come in our house to begin with. Camden talked about the vacuum men for quite a while after they left and he was quite disappointed that they didn't let us keep the cool vacuum attachments.
So, thanks Bates' family, for letting us borrow your amazing Rainbow vacuum cleaner. I am sure it rates up there with the Kirby! I wouldn't know because I never got the chance to use it....
