So they should be dropping the price instead of increasing it. Sales tactics go right over my head...

Glad you were able to find flights!

So I take it this is where he was on Sunday when you had to wait to talk to him about it.

Doesn't the fact that it sold for full asking price mean something at least that you could take a flight that wasn't the absolute cheapest and you could splurge a little and make it work????

I mean, I take it that you are a gal of "full value" for what you get (as am I), but as Fran puts it, "we pinch the pennies so we can, enjoy the thousands." It sounds like with the sale of the property and the ringer you've been through, you just need to go for it and not worry about the pennies!
