I applaud her for making a decision in the best interests of the customers. Reminds me of the kind of decision making I see at Nordstrom - where the right answer is always "What is easiest for the customer?"
Phew! Thanks Deb! I was regretting posting it and wondering if anyone would just take it at face value. I'm pretty shocked by the level of "yes, buts...."

Anyway, Happy Holidays!
