to mow a neglected lawn so she could sell a house and then was upset that the kid asked for a more reasonable amount of money for the job instead of honoring the "first mow free" that he advertised on his neighborhood flyer? Yeah, Pepperidge Farms remembers too.

Well, I also recall that this guy lives here in Nampa, not too far from where I am in Meridian. So why do I bring this all up? I'm getting to that, settle down, you need a bit more context here.

My daughter works for Walmart filling online orders, it's a pretty important job. Today, she came home with a story that I just have to believe is related to the Lawn Care Realtor.

Someone ordered 56 large bags of Black Mulch. Through Walmart delivery service, not curbside pickpup.



Now you might be wondering what sort of delivery vehicles Walmart has? Yeah, I asked that question too. They don't, it's a 3rd party company who delivers and those drivers use their own cars. My daughter goes to get the first load from the spring garden display out in the parking lot (on the opposite side of the store from the curbside pickup area), about 16 bags, and because it has been rainy here the bags were wet so her hands were so filthy after loading those bags, she walked out to the parking lot to meet delivery driver. Was he in a truck at least? Nope, he was driving an older Lexus RX SUV so she loaded it into the back. It at least had a floor cover so it wasn't right on the carpet. The 2nd car was a Toyota Camery and they put 8 bags in it's trunk, and the 3rd car was an old SUV that was a capreted back which also got 16 wet bags of mulch. The 4th car that was supposed to deliver the last 16 never showed up so who knows how they'll get that, tomorrow I guess.

She ended up coming home for lunch after loading the cars, mostly so she could use my Orange hand cleaner because the soap at Walmart wouldn't get the mulchy dirt off her hands.

While I was laughing as she told me this story tonight, I was also thinking about the brilliance of whoever ordered 56 bags of mulch (each weighing 40ish pounds dry) to be delivered. Now I'm wondering about what other heavy/bulky stuff I should just have Walmart deliver? Water softener pellets? Bags of concrete or pavers for doing yard projects? A home gym? Does Walmart sell pianos?

Anyway, this guy and his realtor wife really have life hacks figured out.
