I am not happy

azgirl71 · Mar 14, 2008

So I check the WM site for the GN and it says they are in stock at a store 60 miles from me. I am sooo excited! Well, I even aske another member is he wants to doe with me. She is cool with it. I call the store and they don't even know what I am talking about.

. It is on the Mexico border and had to talk to a couple different people to be able to get them to understand I an talking about a car seat. The lady I speak with tells me that she does not have that seat and they must be coming in soon.

I had plans to go buy one, not because I need one, but I want one. Now I am not going since they don't seem to have them. Anyone speak spanish and want to call for me to see if they get a better answer?

I speak poor Spanish. Seriously. It's bad.

If DH was home I would have him call for you. The language barrier could definitly be it. I hope someone will be able to help you.

Thanks, I hope so too. Hopefully soon as I can't go to late if I find out they do have them.

Yeah, I'm in Philly and they still didn't know what I was talking about...no language barrier issues here. I actually was told at one point (I called about 30 different Walmarts before we all knew what the stock numbers were, etc.) that they don't carry ANY Graco seats!

I finally found one at a store down in a not so great area and was assured over the phone that there were two there.

Once I arrived no one could find the seats. Had THREE walmart employees that were actively working in the baby section looking as well as the head of the stock room. Nothing.

While waiting for TWENTY minutes in the baby section for the assistant manager, "I" found them on display in the center aisle in front of the baby section.

I was pretty darn frustrated, but I did get a seat.

I think part of my decision to not purchase a third Nautilus and go w/ a Regent was that I just didn't have it in me to go searching for the seat again!

I like to have a large selection of seats to show people. That is really the only reason I want one. It is so frustrating.

Ha! A bit OT, but that reminds me of a day I was looking for lettuce in the produce department at WM. Looked ALL over. No lettuce. WTH? I gave up and walked away, only to find it as you found the seats, in the center aisle.

That sounds really frustrating.

You know Amazon and Target have it up for pre-order now... and Amazon has it with free shipping... but I know how hard it is to wait.

My DH is home now, do you want me to have him call?

That is a bummer. I wish we could find them around here, Lisa. I've got 2-3 moms interested in them, I just wish they were easier to find!

Maybe I'll look at the Wal-Marts in Illinois when I visit my parents next week. There are 5 in a pretty close radius that usually have a decent selection of seats. Maybe if I find one I'll get it for you and check it with my luggage when we fly home. How's that for free shipping?

I really wanted one to have for next week. I am not to worried about it right now. Thanks for the offer. I do not trust the airlines with any car seat even if it is in a sealed box

. DH would kill me anyway. I may check the WM in Marana when i am there. It says none in stock, but you never know.

I am not happy
