You guys are motivating me to do my returns now! I have returns several years old that I've been too lazy to ship back...now's the time!

I bought a sweater and got a free scarf. Do I need to return the scarf of I return the sweater? Will they charge me?

I feel like I should know the answer to this after being in this thread for so long, but I don't Frown

Also, I got the giant moisture surge today as my 100 point sephora perk. I'm so excited Smilie

Amazon selling turns out to be a nightmare! I sold only 3 cheaper books (thankfully!), and one of the buyers contacted me that they didn't receive it. It's been more than 3 weeks since the delivery confirmation states "delivered". I sold this book at a loss (2 of the 3 books are at a loss actually). I'm a newbie, so I just matched the lowest price (1 cent + $3.99 ship), only to find out I'll lose out when I was preparing the order. I didn't realize Media Mail can cost that high. Amazon's cut is very high too for such a cheap item. Anyway, I'm thinking positively that I'm just glad this happened to me for a smaller item. I am planning to sell a couple of textbooks. I guess those should ship with signature confirmation and insurance. Anyone who has experience selling textbooks at Amazon have any advice?

Very well. I'm just remembering how hard it is to have a baby. It is very heartwarming to see how big brother loves little brother so much!

I had a nightmare last night laugh out loud that I was pregnant!!! I was so worried how current baby would still be so young when I have another one I need to take care of!

That's wonderful to hear, especially about how taken your oldest son is with his little brother. heart From what I can remember, it took me a little time getting use to having more than one child, but eventually everything worked out well. I asked my dh for help and he did his best at times, so that was a relief. I think it was easier to adjust the second time around because I had more experience and anticipated situations better with less apprehension. I wish you and your family the best. hug


I looked up being "pregnant" in a dream and this is what I found. I hope this helps interpret your dream. Smilie

Pregnant
To dream that you are pregnant symbolizes an aspect of yourself or some aspect of your personal life that is growing and developing. You may not be ready to talk about it or act on it. Being pregnant in your dream may also represent the birth of a new idea, direction, project or goal. Alternatively, if you are trying to get pregnant, then the dream may be a wish fulfillment. If you are not trying to get pregnant, but in the dream that you are, then it symbolizes fear of new responsibilities.

We had so much fun. It was such a beautiful day to go! I've been infected with Disney magic to the point of giddiness! I wish we could stay longer. We've got to go back to the icky Midwest tomorrow Yuk.

Ah, that Disney magic. It will infect you every time. Have fun today.

did you look into half.com or textbooks.com to sell them? they buy books back, you can see if they will buy them from you or if it is better for you to sell them on there

i was thinking of selling l because the textbooks are new to like new. i figured the profit would be bigger. thanks for opening that possibility, i'll be checking first how much buy back would get me before listing.

i just looked at half.com, and find only buyer protection. i think there really isn't any seller protection in trading places like these. sellers have to protect themselves. i am leaning towards signature confirmation + insurance. it's probably a good investment for ~$100 items. i'm glad i learned the lesson for a relatively very small price.

Well they officially closed the doors end of November. He is scheduled for back surgery mid-March. So all works out I guess. How have you been?

I did an exchange for another sweater to avoid that possibility.


Who's birthday did I miss?


I sent in a BUNCH of returns and exchanges today. I went to 2 different stores because I was too embarrassed to have one store send back 10 things for me.Embarrassment

Oddly enough one of the stores asked me for the bottom half of the invoice but I tear that part off and leave it home so they don't mistakenly charge me for shipping. Anyway even though my name and stuff was written on the back of the part that says *return form* they had me write down my name and address on a separate sheet of paper for some reason. It was strange as no other store has had me do that. I had to come home and look at the parts of the invoice that I kept because I was wondering if maybe I put in the wrong part, but I didn't.Confused


Also I finally made it to Sprinkles today and it was just as fabulous as I remembered and a lot cheaper thanks to the free cupcake.nod I had a German Chocolate and a Peanut Butter Chocolate.

Sadly my sister was a jerk today and put a damper on what could have been a fabulous day but I'm over it.

I have nightmares like that ALL the time!! What is sad about it is that I rarely dream about DS, more often I'm dreaming that I'm freaking out over being pregnant again Crazy

funny how we both refer to it as "nightmares" instead of dreams.
