Great story.
Your mistake didn't cost you a dime, that is worth celebrating.

Even better, Im getting a $250 LMC gift card for screwing up. I wish I could cash in on all my mistakes.

Good story. But yours is not as bad as the guy whose truck ran through the fence or the guy that tasted the liquid coming from under the truck!

I was wondering how much it was worth to make that admission. OTOH, I've made all of mine for free. Congratulations!

You put a smile on my face, thanks


We've all done things that are equally as silly. Its amazing how the mind can go blank when the prospect of a test drive is at hand.


Thanks again

Great story. I'll remember that when I do something silly. Shows us what being giddy can do.

Yeah, I don't think I would have admitted something like that.

After reading the story, I think we might be related, maybe even twins, LOL. Its really cool when we admit our missteps, and we all have them, you can believe that. But its the first time I've herd of getting paid for one. Congratulations.
