Last Saturday, as I returned home from work, my wife greeted me at the door with an overly-enthusiastic smile. We proceeded to have a very memorable evening. When it came time to relax in front of the TV, I picked up my laptop and found papers folded inside. On the outside, it read "I love you". Typical of my wife and didn't seem unusual. I opened the papers and it was a printout of the CBR250R overview and spec sheet. At the top was two dealership business cards stapled to it. I turned and asked the wife, "Did you go down to the dealership today?" To which she sheepishly replied, "Yea."
The last page of the stapled papers was a copy of a receipt. As it turned out, my wife had gone down to see the bike that I had been talking about. The dealership was having some kind of sales event and my wife ended up talking to a salesman and when she figured out the salesman was clueless, she asked for the manager. After a lengthy conversation about the bike and the very limited availability, my wife decided to put a down-payment on what will be the only Black non-ABS model that dealership will get before the 12's come out!! She said that she wanted to make sure that I got one because people had been constantly coming into the dealership enquiring about the new CBR. Thanks to my wife, I will have my CBR by August!! The manager said that it could be in as soon as July but definitely by August.
That's so cool! Congrats mate
My hubby was awesome like that too, I got home from work one day and he had all the info sheets and a quote ready for me and the next week he rang me and said he'd paid the deposit! He doesn't even ride, just knows how much I wanted the CBR. Good partners rock!
