Gee Thanks! listener Ashley Hill had purchased her very expensive and very unique wedding dress over the phone at Neiman Marcus. They charged her card and told her the dress would be shipped out the next day. In between that phone call and the next day, an error in communication led Ashley's dress to be sold to someone else.
There were no other dresses left. Neiman Marcus apologized and refunded her. But, they said, there's nothing else they can do.
Hopeless and frustrated, Ashley went into the Gee Thanks! FB group to share the tale with the community.
72 hours later, a wedding dress miracle happened. This episode tells the story.

| 0:33.7 | Hi, I'm Marissa Delgado, and I actually am not a podcast listener in general, |
| 0:40.3 | so I have not heard the G-Pangs pod ironically, but I've been a loyal part of the Facebook group for a while and so that's where I saw the post from Ashley about her ridiculously amazing dress. |
| 0:57.0 | Wait, I am so sorry. I know this is where Mike's supposed to be muted, but you aren't even a podcast listener. You are just like an internet |
| 1:05.4 | purchasing sloth? Yeah, I don't know how I I don't know honestly how I |
| 1:12.2 | ended up in the group. I think I was maybe following the |
| 1:15.4 | Instagram possibly at some point and no so my my dedication is purely to the |
| 1:21.7 | Facebook group because they find such like amazing things which is why I started following your post in the first place because I was like if anybody is going to find this it's going to be the 5,000 women in this group and the two men. |

| 1:56.6 | The gist of the story is that she purchased it over the phone. |
| 2:02.3 | They said, great, we'll hold on to it |
| 2:05.2 | and ship it to you where you can come pick it up. |
