SHUTTERFLY PRICING & SHIPPING
http://www.shutterfly.com/help/pop/pricing.jsp

=======================================================================================
There are three types of Shutterfly coupon codes:

1 - Account Codes - Shutterfly adds a code to your account and, depending on your email preferences, emails you to alert you to the offer. This is not transferable - the offer is tied to that Shutterfly account.

Make sure you tell Shutterfly to email you and you won't miss any deals. If you find deals in your account that you did not see in email - check your preferences.

* Go to My Shutterfly
* Go to the bottom and click on Personal Info/Settings
* Click on change under Email Preferences
* Make sure that the first box is checked
* Save now

A recent development in the Shutterfly world, probably in response to all the selling on eBay and trading on forums like this, where the offer code is emailed to the customer AND they have to add it to their account - it is not always added automatically by Shutterfly. The codes are typically 6-8 characters and look exactly like the shareable codes -- but they will only work on the accounts that Shutterfly chose to email this offer to.

2 - Shareable Codes - Shutterfly has some codes that are offered to affiliates/partners. These coupons can be shared and used in multiple accounts (once per account). Examples of what these codes look like are NMSA-XXXX or WIXXER09.

3 - Unique One time use codes - Shutterfly also offers one time use codes, typically they are 18 alphanumeric characters long, that come with special offers. These codes may be emailed to you or included in a printed card when you get a Shutterfly shipment. They may be won via Shutterfly contests. They may come from Shutterfly or from partner offers. Often times you can see these codes being sold on eBay. Examples of what these codes look like XXXX-7H9P-EBFX-V39VEC.

===============================================================================================
Membership/Frequent Flier Programs
If you participate in these you may be able to get rebates or bonuses:

* Upromise - shop thru link and get 7% in your account - they often have other discounts as well
* eebates you can get a percentage of your order value credited (The program eebates has one less e, but if you type the real name this site will block it)
* Discover reward cards also give 5% back on shutterfly.com purchases when you shop thru their link - also you can use your Discover Cash Back to get $25 gift card to shutterfly for only $20 (comes in the mail - not instant)
* Northwest World Perks - earn 2 miles per $ when shop thru link on world perk website
* United Mileage Plus - earn 3 miles per $ when shop thru link on mileage plus website
* Delta Sky Miles - earn 10 miles per $ when shop thru link (plus earn 1000 miles until 12/31 when you spend $20 or more - see link at Sky Miles for more details)

I see, that makes sense. I think that would be a really interesting job. Hang in there, things will work out for you, I'm sure. hug
Quote from k1m1c1 :
speaking as an L&D nurse, I can tell you the men in the delivery room are pretty usless That being said, for the perspective part, I can say that I have delivered many a baby were the daddy wasn't around and I don't mean that he just didn't show up. Had a couple of women where their DH died during their pregnancy......super sad. Two had the big C and one was a soilder that was killed in action. There were a few soliders wives who's DH couldn't get leave and the women were "hoping" he'd be able to make it home in a week or two.
So sad, some of the things you have seen.

Quote from L143smile :
hello all... sorry i was MIA...another busy weekend past.

first off, zmorgan you are constantly in my thoughts and prayers. hug

ariel- love the pics of lily and hope she starts sleeping tons for you!

coach- i hope you won that fight you keep speaking of!

kootz and knott- way to go on the weight loss!! i'm TRYING to watch what i eat... it's not easy at all. i did go a whole 2 weeks without a single glass of "fruit"... until friday night, that is.

everyone else: hug miss you all!!!
Thanks for the thoughts & prayers. Things are more bearable for me, but I still have my days. I'm trying to remember to focus on being in the moment with my kids and our future together. One thing I know for sure is that I don't want to have any regrets with them so I need to be working on being the best mom I can before we have any more kids.

Quote from ArielA :
Hey guys! Momma Junie and I took Lily to her 5 day appt today. She is more jaundice than she was, so we had to get her heel poked to test her. I am waiting to hear back from the dr's now to know the level. He does want her to be in sunlight, (nekkid in a bouncer) through a window, for 10 mins a couple times a day. So we will do that until we know more.
I weighed myself today (using the same scale I have throughout the pregnancy) and I am down below my pre preggo weight! Yahoo! It's only 1 pound less, but it makes me happy! I had only gained 13 pounds from my pregnancy, so I lost 14 pounds so far. Most of that was Lily (8 lb baby), but I hope to work off some more when I can!
Good for you on the weight! Hope a little sunbathing helps Lily out!
Quote from L143smile :
damn... i haven't had a house party in like 10 months. wth?! red dots for me.

hope everyone is doing well... nothing but planning and going crazy in my world. caution: tiny rant coming on!!!

so the girl i was the moh for last summer (let's call her friend A) is the moh of our mutual friend's (which is a month after mine) and i am in her wedding (let's call her friend B). It was one of the hardest decisions i made to NOT have her as a bridesmaid. but with such close family i had no spots left without having a ridiculously huge wedding party. (ok so that whole part was somewhat irrelavant, but i am still having a hard time with it- so i justify it whenever i can... LOL ) anywho, friend A planned friend B's shower about 2 weeks before i even set my wedding date- when she KNEW we were trying to find a date that worked for EVERYONE- nevermind us. (which i somewhat feel guilty of bc i set my date after friend B, and only a month a part... but i justify that with that we have been engaged for 3 years) so now she is on a roll with this shower. N.O.W. Faint this shower is in August, mind you. so, i am trying SO HARD to stay sane and helpful... let's not forget that i am planning my sister's shower at the moment (as you ALL KNOW! LOL)...DF is stressing to find a job AND have i mentioned how many coupons expired over the weekend?!

ok rant over... sorry i keep doing that here... i'll be back to my normal self soon! PROMISE!
hug Sorry about the wedding/shower stress. Hang in there and keep your eye on the prize! hug

Hi all, missing you guys! Read back, but lost the MQM. Dh has been working on the computer and while it's running so much faster, I lost a few things in the process.

Ariel - Lily is lovely, keep the pics coming.
Rach - love the Easter pics on FB
Lori - Sounds like wedding mayhem! Hang in there. I'm getting a little surprise ready to send your way.
zmorgan - praying for you and your friend

Sheesh! So many more things I wanted to comment on, but now I can't remember. Dang prego brain. I haven't been feeling great the past couple of days. Braxton hicks, I think, and feeling sick to my stomach, not sleeping, etc. It's too early, since I have 3 weeks of work to try to get through. Here's hoping I can feel better.

We helped my parents move this past weekend (well, I didn't help) so we were gone all weekend. Bro and SIL are coming down this next weekend. I feel like I can use weekends to recover from my weekends. Doc appt. tomorrow to see how this babe is doing. Can't believe I go in every week now. 4.5 weeks to go! Yahoo! Can you tell I'm ready? Ha, well, the sad thing is while I'm ready to be done, I'm so not ready for baby to arrive. Haven't washed a thing, hardly bought a thing, the cradle and car seat are still stored away. Eek! I guess I better get going on stuff. At least I have dipes and wipes. Big Grin

That's life in a nutshell. Miss you guys.

Kori, this may not make you feel any better but have four kids and the only one that I was really prepared for was the FIRST one. The last one wore clothes that I just ripped the tags off of and watches the portable DVD player most of her waking hours Roll Diapers and wipeys are all you really need Big Grin

Thanks for lovin' on the pics - they really didn't turn out that great but you can't really tell by looking at the proofs.

Toffi-I agree with Rach...the babies really don't care "what you have ready!" A car seat, somewhere to sleep, diapers, wipes and food is all they really care about...it's the love thing that takes care of everthing else! Enjoy the time you have with just 3 three of you right now. Not that having 4 will not be special, but don't let the things you think you have to do take away from the things you need to do right now...and that is taking care of yourself and the sweetiepie you already have at home!

I need an idea...DS has had a teacher's aid that has helped him with reading and math since K and he is in 4th grade right now. When I met with her last week, she kind of got teary-eyed talking about how much she cared about him and had even figured out how many days she had spent with him (it was a math problem that they did...not a freaky stalker) She was so happy at how much progress he has made and was sad that she wouldn't have him any more since 5th grade is middle school for us.

I am having DS write her a letter and I know that will mean a lot to her, and I plan on writing a letter to her as well. Any other ideas...I was trying to think of a book that would be a good fit, but I can't think of one...maybe I could just get her a gift card to Barnes and Noble???

Sounds like a great relationship.

I seem to remember our friends saying what a fun person your ds is. How about coming up with some of his crazy sayings on something from Artscow.
Oops...Probably would not get here in time.

How about an SF 8x8 journal with his pic in the corner and the rest of the page lined?

I would also write a letter to send to her supervisor, something to go in her permanent file.

Braxton hicks, I think, and feeling sick to my stomach, not sleeping, etc. It's too early, since I have 3 weeks of work to try to get through. Here's hoping I can feel better.

We helped my parents move this past weekend (well, I didn't help) so we were gone all weekend. Bro and SIL are coming down this next weekend. I feel like I can use weekends to recover from my weekends. Doc appt. tomorrow to see how this babe is doing. Can't believe I go in every week now. 4.5 weeks to go! Yahoo! Can you tell I'm ready? Ha, well, the sad thing is while I'm ready to be done, I'm so not ready for baby to arrive. Haven't washed a thing, hardly bought a thing, the cradle and car seat are still stored away. Eek! I guess I better get going on stuff. At least I have dipes and wipes. Big Grin

That's life in a nutshell. Miss you guys.
I didn't know you were this close! Wow! Take care of yourself and don't worry about the rest. This babe will come ready or not and it will never matter. He/she (brainfart) will never know it. Katie came a month early after my "braxton hicks" turned out to be getting me fully dialated (oops) and Katie doesn't know it and she is turning out quite well. She was loved and cared for. I am sure yours will be too...even if things aren't ready.

Toffi-I agree with Rach...the babies really don't care "what you have ready!" A car seat, somewhere to sleep, diapers, wipes and food is all they really care about...it's the love thing that takes care of everthing else! Enjoy the time you have with just 3 three of you right now. Not that having 4 will not be special, but don't let the things you think you have to do take away from the things you need to do right now...and that is taking care of yourself and the sweetiepie you already have at home!
Iagree

I need an idea...DS has had a teacher's aid that has helped him with reading and math since K and he is in 4th grade right now. When I met with her last week, she kind of got teary-eyed talking about how much she cared about him and had even figured out how many days she had spent with him (it was a math problem that they did...not a freaky stalker) She was so happy at how much progress he has made and was sad that she wouldn't have him any more since 5th grade is middle school for us.

I am having DS write her a letter and I know that will mean a lot to her, and I plan on writing a letter to her as well. Any other ideas...I was trying to think of a book that would be a good fit, but I can't think of one...maybe I could just get her a gift card to Barnes and Noble???
One of the best cards, and the one I remember, from a ctudent was one that said "in working with his mind, you won his heart" That was very special to me and touched my heart. It made me feel that it all mattered, all the extra time with him, extra meetings, and extra prayers.

I would also write a letter to send to her supervisor, something to go in her permanent file.
Great idea!
