[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Let's be honest. Nobody should be paying $50-$100 to rush a child's swimsuit to an irate person who cannot solve a simple setback. There is a time to throw money at a problem, and there is a time to buy another swimsuit on the way to the beach. [/quote]

And decent person would have met the other Mom halfway. A 30 minute drive is not life-ending.

Not sure why it's up to the other Mom to solve the problem and not the OP. [/quote]
Not a 30 minute drive. It would have been a 1-hour round trip late at night with two young children in the car. It's an unreasonable request.[/quote]

An hour, the horror! 10PM, yes definitely so late at night. How are you even up now??!![/quote]

I'm not going to get my kids out of bed, stick them in the car for a drive, for a bathing suit.  And neither are you.  It's unreasonable.[/quote]

So many of you are getting caught up in the item. For me, it's not about the item. It's about accountability. Correcting a mistake. While inconvenient as hell and I certainly would have been annoyed, I absolutely would have met the Mom at 10PM and been done with it. Especially, considering OP opened the "I'll bring it to you" conversation.[/quote]

Yes, she offered to bring it the next day.  That's accountability.  [/quote]

Now I know why people say DC area people are inconsiderate assholes. [/quote]
