I went to Service Merchandise Saturday to pick up a couple of the Quad

chairs.  I looked all over and couldn't find it.  Finally I asked the

man in the help desk about them.  He said they didn't carry them, never

had, he would have seen them.  I asked if they had a sale flyer that

expired Sunday.  He did, and lo and behold there was the Quad chair just

like I described it.  He dug around in the stock room with his boss and

found a box of 3.  One was marked "FOR DISPLAY".  I told him to display

that one and I bought the other 2.
