I come home from mowing, the wife says someone is going to clean one room of carpet for free. They are going to be back around 5:00. They show up late. If I hade been home they would not be returning. In walks a guy with a new Kirby vacuum in two boxes. Then start taking things out of the boxes. He has parts scattered all over my floor. I told him I didn't want to buy a vacuum. He says I just want to vacuum your carpet. first he puts these little white pads in the suction line to show me all the dire my vacuum misses. He pulls up hair and dirt from every animal we have had in the house for the last 20 years, including dirt from my boots. I will admit it is a good vacuum. Over two hours later comes the big sales pitch. For just 3,500.00 I can have this wonderful machine. Not long after that he is repacking his stuff, and heading out the door. Then I look on line and can get the same thing for around 1,000.00. As long as I live, I will never pay 3,500.00 for a vacuum cleaner. Stan
