I thought guys might find this story amusing.
When we got a call from our jeweller to say that the e-ring was ready to be collected, we told him we would come in after work and get it. When we got there, he asked if we could pay by cheque instead of credit card. This was because he was giving us such a great deal, his profit margin was minimal - so he didn''t want to incur credit card charges. Well, we didn''t realise this and hadn''t brought our cheque book.
It was a Thursday night and I wanted it so that I could show everyone at work the next day. We told him that we didn''t have the cheque book and would come back the next day and collect it then (which meant that I had to wait until Monday to show it off), but he took one look at my face and said that we could take it home with us on the night and pay him another day.
It was this one act of kindness and faith in us that made my engagement even more special that what it already was.
