I’ve been quietly waiting for the day when this company realizes they left a $3,000 rug at my home that I haven’t paid for …but it’s been 4 months….

They just happen to fall into our lap sometimes, and we're smart enough to not ruin them by thinking about it too hard. That's what happened to the couple in this story, which they shared on the confessions subreddit. They kept on waiting for the other shoe to drop, but it didn't seem like it was going to. You know that feeling when you get away with something? When you think that a certain thing would happen, and then it doesn't? But it does so in a way that improves your life? That's exactly what this couple was experiencing, and they didn't know what they did to deserve it.

My husband and I purchased a very old home this winter and had the floors refinished. While they look beautiful the stairs are slippery AF and we have fallen several times. Finally come February I decided to pull the plug and hire a company to install a stair runner. Found a company went to the show room picked out a runner etc all was good. While at the show room they ask me if I need any other rugs and I explain yes blah blah and this is the style I’m looking for. The consultant (fancy rug place outside of my budget but I only want to install this runner once and be done) explains that they can have some rugs brought over to my home so test out in different lightening / times of day/ so I can see them in my space (wow this is fancy who knew this is how the other half lives ya know).

Rugs can be so outlandishly expensive. They're one of the more expensive things you have to buy for your home. Why? Who knows. All I know is that if a free, new rug ended up in my house, I would be very grateful for it. And a couple in the story definitely was, in a way that they were not expecting. Sometimes through a loophole or lapse of judgment, you end up on the right side of a retail transaction. It rarely happens this way, but when it does, it's worth celebrating, which is why they shared their story on the internet so that everyone could share it with them.

The time comes for the runner installation, all goes well, I pay etc. the team brings in the runners for me to see in the space. I love this teal one but see the price tag and explain to my husband there is no way in h*** I’m spending $3k on a 3x13 rug. The sales associate says no worries keep it for a few days think it over see how it looks in different lightening etc and we will come pick it up when you’re done. They followed up via email a week later, I explained it’s lovely but unfortunately won’t work out and they’re welcome to come get it whenever. Well that was March… I’ve been checking my credit card regularly and they haven’t billed me for anything other than the runner installation… I’ve been careful to keep the rug in pristine condition but at what point is it finders keepers?
TLDR: I’ve been quietly waiting for the day when the company realizes they left a $3,000 rug at my home that I haven’t paid for …but it’s been 4 months….
