So I placed my poultry order with McMurray this year (I purchased from them last year and was very pleased with my order). This year I decided on 25 meat birds, and "Backyard Combination #2" which consists of 6 turkeys and 9 ducks. For some reason, I decided to use my debit card rather than my credit card to pay for the orders. THANK GOD! My order is scheduled to hatch and ship this weekend. I was online paying bills and noticed that MM had deducted the money for the shipment... THEN I noticed that one of the deductions was for $260! I KNOW I didn't spend that much on my order. I called customer service and they reviewed my order... at some point someone keyed in 215 turkeys and ducks instead of 15! Good thing I didn't put the order on the credit card - I'm not in the habit of checking the charge details and I may not have caught the error. Could you imagine my surprise had I shown up at the Post Office to pick up my 15 birds to only to find 215 birds???
Makes me think of the signature on one of the BYC members....it says " It hard to soar like an eagle when your surrounded by turkeys". I would have believed that on this one.
