This top ran large for me. It was disappointing because it is so cute. I still want it. I could not make a Medium or Small work.

Thank you Iceyhug. It sucks that it didn't work for you. The sizing can be so inconsistent.

The last time I stocked up on movie tickets some of them didn't work when I got around to using them.Mad They weren't expired either! They just pretended someone had used them.

Yep it is one of those things though that makes me wonder if the company screwed me or if someone out there guesses codes and really did use mine. You never know which one happened. I checked all of my codes the moment I got them to make sure the correct amount was there and then a few months later they were empty. I only lost like $20 of my actual money but I won't stock up that much again. I probably shouldn't have waited that long to use them all up but some of the movies that came out were not worth seeing.laugh out loud

where did you buy the deals from?

someone did that to me on groupon! i guessed that someone had altered their own pdf and changed the # (i mean, they don't really use encrypted numbers - it's like 1-2000 or however many they sell Roll Eyes (Sarcastic)). since then i have not bought as many groupons - it was such a bad experience, resulting in the store manager basically accusing me of fraud (and me accusing them of letting others get away with fraud, bc mine was valid! shake head). the worst part was, they didn't check my groupon until AFTER our meal, when i handed it to them before the meal. soooo annoying.

That REALLY sucks. Thanks for sharing your experience. I'll have to be more careful about Groupons and the like now.

That is terrible! I don't know how I would have handled that without flipping out. Mine were from sprint. I used different cards with different names, and different addresses.

I thought I had learned my lesson but now that I see that I can buy a $10 Starbucks e-giftcard for $5 from google offers tomorrow and I'm still thinking about how I can get 3.laugh out loud

Quote from CrazyCatJade :
I was going to post the giveaway to *some* people on SD, but my daughter quit breathing and we spend 2 days in the hospital, the day I found the giveaway. If I find another giveaway I will let you ladies know, but I'm selfish haha. I won't post it on the main SD pages. Heck, they gave out PHENOMENAL prizes and I found it on my own on day 8. The prizes were all ARV $100 - $300, she gave out 5 or more per day and the average entries were around 25. The SD effect would have killed my chances lol!

That makes me sound like such a greedy biatch. :sadwalk :
I must be selfish too. Stick Out Tongue I only post deals here. I never post anything in HD. It doesn't take long for the people in HDs to kill a deal.

Quote from annicus :
i got my umbrella - vs decided to ship in a bag. : rolleyes: luckily, it wasn't damaged and it opens and everything! i absolutely LOVE it!! i will totally use this umbrella, not like the sephora one.

now, off to try on a dress.
I'm glad you love it. bounce

Quote from CrazyCatJade :
Thanks : ) I win a lot, it's a productive hobby lol. This last week I won quite a bit! Thats why I feel like an ass when I say I don't get that excited about $50, but I generally top $400 a month when I am really applying myself : ) I go through dry spells too, but in the end I like being able to get my skincare and makeup goodies free or cheap with gift cards I win : )
That's a lot to win every month.Woot I rarely win anything. I get so excited, when I do. I need a Winning For Dummies tutorial from you. laugh out loud

Quote from CrazyCatJade :
Sweet dreams and I hope you feel better. I have to go tend to the little one. Two month shots today : (
Poor baby. I hope she's doing okay now. Comfort

Quote from ALVSGIRLY :

I agree! This is ridiculous. Annoyed

Where have you been? I was thinking about you yesterday.

Someone posted a B&J deal a couple days ago. The closest one to me is at the college. Unfortunately, it's not worth the hassle. Frown It is better than the last time they did this. I checked then & the closest one to me was on a Royal Caribbean cruise ship at the port. I'm sure they wouldn't have a problem letting me on the ship, just to get an ice cream. That would be a fun conversation. LMAO

Quote from crazymonkey1980 :
So true! I was always "shy" about such things, when the baby came last year after 26+ hours of labors then a c-setion, you don't have any way to be shy! Plus with cosemetic surgery you are put under, and when you wake up, new boobs!
Quote from CrazyCatJade :
THIS^^

So true :lol :
I must be the only mom who is still shy at the doctor's office. I hate going, especially if it's for anything other than my usual check-up for my prescriptions. The last time I had a pap smear they messed it up. It's been about 3 years & I still haven't let them redo it. I know...... bad me. Embarrassment

Quote from longislandgirl :
I get most of my items shipped from Horsham, PA. Vs must have another warehouse there I guess. NJ girls might be getting it within one day i think :whee :
I'm jealous. I wish I could get my packages faster.

I've lost money by stocking up too, but it's usually our fault. Our DS forgets to use them, & there's not that many movies my DH & I want to see. I still buy a few, when there's a deal. Even if I lose a few tickets, I'm usually not losing any money compared to paying full price. Once I had tickets that didn't work, when I tried to redeem them online. I think they eventually fixed the problem, but I can't remember for sure. It was annoying at the time.

What did you end up doing? That would be so embarrassing.
