I'm having a jewelry party tomorrow at my house, and I had scheduled carpet cleaning Thursday. He called sick. Our best friend, who lives more than an hour away, cleans carpets for a living. We called him and told him our dilemma. He was able to fit us into his schedule today, and clean our carpets. His last job of the day ended late, so he didn't arrive to our house until after 7 PM. With the treatments he did (gum removal, stain removal, etc.) it would have cost $400. He charged us just the minimum $100. We took him to Golden Valley Brew Pub for a thank you dinner. He's a true friend. Our carpets look brand new and smell so nice.
