The Capital Finance
I bought the Oakley Thump Pro at Oakley.com. I never thought that one day I will regret buying it. Though it has its pros but still they were not as good as they say.
A positive comment that I can give is that the glasses offer optical advantages standard of Oakley eye glass products. The negative thing about the Oakley Thump Pro is that it is unreliable. It is easily affected by dampness. Do not sweat; do not use the product in a damp climate, take precautions to avoid condensation within the product’s electronic area, and be patient when they are sent in for repair.
I’ve sent Oakley my Thump Pro glasses 4 different times for repair. This product has spent more time in repair (on average a 3 week turn around) than in use. Based on my conversation with the customer service persons, dampness affects the electronics, but Oakley provides no advice to the consumer on taking precautions to avoid this problem, short of wearing a headband or wrapping Saran wrap around the temples.
The electronics are too temperamental as an active wear product. The Oakley Thump Pro is NOT WORTH the cost and aggravation.
Recently, I had a great shopping experience at the downtown mall. I set out for the day needing to find four different gifts for Father’s Day. I needed a gift for my father, my husband’s father, my stepfather, and my uncle Joe, who has always been a father figure in my life. Anyone who has ever shopped for a man can tell you that they are very hard to shop for. This is especially true when a man has everything. This year I decided that for Father’s Day I would just keep it simple by purchasing items that I knew they would use.
Within one hour, I had every gift that I needed. I found my dad’s favourite cologne, my husband’s dad’s favourite music CD, my step father’s must have shaving lotion, and even my Uncle Joe’s favourite gourmet coffee. I was almost lost when it came to Uncle Joe. All that I can say is thank God for Costa Coffee. The store had not been there for very long and I had never even noticed it there before but now there is the Costa Coffee voucher available. I was thrilled to see it there, set up between the exit doors and the restroom.
Thankfully, my Father’s Day shopping is over for the year. The best part is I found all of my gifts in a very short amount of time. That is my kind of shopping.
