So remember my broken camera? How could you forget, right? I took it in to be fixed, they sent it off to Sony to await the dreaded news of how much the repair would be. When I found out last Friday it was going to cost $200, I said fuggetaboutit, I'll just buy a new one, but send the old one back to me. It still works, as long as you don't need a flash.
The camera store just called me and said my camera was back and I could come pick it up.
But something funny happened. Sony apparently missed the message that said "please find out what's wrong with it before you fix it, customer has to approve any and all repairs first."
THEY FIXED IT ANYWAY!
And my bill? NOTHING!!! ZERO!!! ZIP!!!
Their fault, not mine!
I owe NUSSING!!! Nussing I tell you!
HOLY MOO!!!
Now, I'm kind of annoyed we bought a brand new camera... I KNEW it, I told my husband we should hold off for a few months before investing in a new one. But would he listen to me? NO....
Kind of like when I lost my diamond wedding ring a few years ago and he wanted to rush right out and replace it and I begged and pleaded, lets just hold off for awhile, but did he listen then? NO! Six months later, lookie what I found buried in the bottom of my cedar chest! Now I have two beautiful diamond rings! He still won't let me live that one down... brought it up to the camera man last Saturday even.
Instead, I now have two perfectly good, one totally brand new, almost identical cameras, a Sony Cybershot H5 and H7! Actually, three if you count the very cheap Sony Cybershot DSC S-700 one we bought a few weeks ago.
Looks like his and hers and their camera's now...
WOW! Just.... WOW! This totally makes up for golf season starting...

Frikkin SCORE! Something similar happened to me, but it was my sewing machine - and I didn't have to pay the $10 service charge...sounds like your luck - uh - why can't I score on my camera like that? I should go cower in a corner & sulk - but instead I'm going to eat chocolate.
