Our crib, the world traveler

A couple weeks ago, Trey and I ordered a crib online from WalMart. One of the cool things about Wally World's online ordering is that most items can be shipped to your local WalMart for free. So we placed the order and have been anxiously awaiting the e-mail notification that will tell us we can go pick up our new crib.

Well, apparently FedEx shipped the crib from Washington to Portland, OR to Memphis to North Little Rock... and then somehow they decided not to deliver it. The reason they give on their tracking website is "recipient closed." I'm pretty sure our 24-hour WalMart super center doesn't close. Just a hunch.

So I was pretty annoyed to find out that they shipped the crib all the way back to Memphis. No wonder shipping costs are so high! Why didn't they just leave the crib here? Now they'll have to ship it all the way back again.

I checked today to see if the crib had left Memphis yet, and it had. Yay! The bad news: It's now on its way back to Portland. ::sigh::
