I received a gift card to a nail salon in the area. I’d never heard of it- other than it was new.

Now, in my mind, it was called Elite Nails. (I took the Elite from my housekeeper’s company and just ran with it). So, I look up Elite nails and don’t see that name, but see Elise. Close enough.

I get there, it’s brand new! Everything is spacious and clean- and since I knew 9/10 people spaced throughout the place, I figured this must be special.

Ps: I’m ready to pay and I pull out my gift certificate- oblivious to the name on the envelope.

The nail person takes it, studies it, looks at me and says, “we can’t take this.”

Stunned, I asked why.

Apparently I randomly thought of the name to the salon where my cert was from…because mine was for a place called, Top Coat.
