We had no immediate plans to acquire one, but started considering options: location for the safe, reasonable cost, adequate capacity, <strong><em>compliance with insane California gun laws<\/em><\/strong> and so forth. We put the thought on a back brain cell for the time being.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><br \/>\nWhen the sales papers arrived last week, lo and behold, Lowe&#8217;s had lowered the price on a safe that met our requirements. On Friday, I got online with <a href=\"http:\/\/www.lowes.com\/\">Lowe&#8217;s Website<\/a> and found the safe was in stock at our local store. A few clicks later, the order was placed. I got an immediate eMail confirming the order. On Saturday, I got a call from their delivery folks telling me that it would be delivered on Sunday between 8 and 12 AM. By 9:30 or so Sunday Morning, the safe was in our residence. <\/p>\n<p>It was a virtually painless process. The safe itself is 59&#8243; by 21&#8243; by 17&#8243; and is  configurable for a variety of applications. All in all, we&#8217;re very pleased. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It&#8217;s not often that I get to write about a good experience when it comes to dealing with retailers, but I am especially pleased about a&#46;&#46;&#46;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":190,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6,45,20],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-749","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-california","category-firearms","category-money"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/capnbob.us\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/749","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/capnbob.us\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/capnbob.us\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/capnbob.us\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/190"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/capnbob.us\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=749"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"http:\/\/capnbob.us\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/749\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/capnbob.us\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=749"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/capnbob.us\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=749"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/capnbob.us\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=749"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
