| - I just checked on my phone to verify I had the correct name and noticed in very small print
**except hookers & blow** which made me love this service even MORE-as I laughed hysterically!
Can I even begin to express how much gratitude I have for this service?
Skip past these two paragraphs if you don't want to know my crazy LV story.
I frequent Las Vegas. Fly on down and I rent a car, book a room-and do what I do.
This time was not so smooth. I found, after checking in at the airport, that
my ID was expired. WAIT! Expired? How the hell does one do VEGAS without a valid ID? No car? I guess this was the moment to stop walking towards the terminal and skip the trip. But no, I continued on, in my delusional state. Did I mention I was coming down with something too? Yup. Flu, cold-some life threating virus-who knows.
I felt like crap ran over. I had a fever and I sweating as if I'd just run a marathon.
Knowing that there's no way I'll be able to drive the vehicle that I'd already
reserved and paid for-some distorted perception of reality kept me hopeful.
I arrive to Vegas and it feels like the busiest month I've EVER witnessed at the
airport. No different at the car rental center. After waiting in line for 30 minutes,
feeling like I may just keel over and die due to the disease I had decided to bring
along with me-I come to find-my overly optimistic nature was useless. The man at the counter confirmed. No car. The guy looked like he might cry, he felt so bad for me. Not bad enough to break the law and let me drive illegally? Jeez. C'mon.
I'm kidding. Unintelligent risk. I knew it was not a good idea. Worth a try. Oh well.
I get to my gnarly hotel (we'll leave that for another review) via slowest taxi driver
alive in Las Vegas and collapse. What does one do without a car in Sin City? DIE! Die is what YOU do! Okay...it wasn't that bad. I was sick-I wasn't going to end up doing anything I'd planned on doing-that was apparent after the first night. I was dreadfully ill. Who goes to Vegas sick? Someone not thinking at ALL that's who! Or-someone who's just overly optimistic. I really never get this sick. I figured
I'd be better with a few litres of water and a good night's rest. No go.
STUCK in Vegas with car, feeling like crap in a dingy hotel room with no food.
GOD! I love life! So a friend who was visiting rescued me the first day and took me to Whole Foods. Did I mention that I'm a Vegan food snob? Yup. Just to top it all off.
Four days of staring at the wall (because I despise television)...Oh, did I mention that the hotel's wifi wasn't working? Did I mention that I thought it was my lovely brand new Vaio? Or that I sat on the phone hacking and coughing with Sony tech support for THREE hours trying to fix the problem? Just wanted to throw that in. Yup. Good times. SOO four days later-I'm running out of produce from the Whole foods trip and down to my last bottle of water. An hour searching on my little Nexus phone...and I find...anythinguwantdelivery!!!!
I call, they answer. They say $20 and 10% gratuity. Done and done...and done!! YES yes yes!
Thank God! I can't fathom going out and hacking and coughing all over everyone and dealing with the insanity that IS Vegas BUT at this moment in time-STARVATION and dehydration was steadily approaching. anythinguwantdelivery SAVED my life! Organic juice and yummy vegan food from my favorite little grocer: Rainbow's End! When the delivery man arrived, he couldn't find my room as it was super confusing-even for me, this hotel is crap-did I mention that already? Yes, this hotel is crap. I'm pretty sure he was ten minutes early! They said it would take an hour when I placed the order. He called-and I walked outside-he spotted me and was stuck on the opposite side of the garbage bin area. He unhinged the doors and walked though to get to me. It was comical and
very heroic (considering my delusional state of illness and starvation). He was very very nice, and walked back to my room with me and brought my order inside and asked for the exact amount I had calculated myself (no weird hidden fees or overcharging) and even tried to give me all of my change back. I wanted to give him all of my money I was so grateful!!
Why I love:
-friendly
-$20+10% gratuity: totally worth the small fee (if you're in a bind)
-arrived early!
One tip-if you're ordering food, just call and order it yourself (like I did) and just have them
pick it up for you. Don't depend on them to understand your order-their not waiters-they're
an amazing delivery service!!
Thank you so much for saving me anythinguwantdelivery!
