You know, I thought the days of door to door salesmen had come and gone, but I guess not.
Because this afternoon I had the most interesting interaction with somebody that was a heating and A/C worker.
Now I did not ever think I would see a heating and a/c worker come to my door, but yet early this afternoon there he was resting on my front porch knocking on my door. When I opened the door I saw that this guy that was resting on my front porch was wearing the uniform of a local heating and A/C supplier. He happily greeted me and explained that he was giving away free air filters. When he first told me this I told him he had to go, because who gives away free air filters? But he quickly explained that it was a freebie that the Heating, Ventilation, and A/C corporation was doing to get people more interested in their Heating, Ventilation, and A/C products. He then handed me one and said try one, and he told me that I would love it. After all, that was a free air filter and I did not see anything to lose, and so I decided to go ahead and take it from him and give it a try. Upon closer inspection I noticed that this wasn’t just any free air filter, it was a free HEPA filter. I was entirely surprised, as those filters are nice and are some of the best air filters that you can get! I couldn’t believe that I had just been given one for free and today was my lucky day afterall.
