i remember this coming up during the scarf promo, but i don't remember the repercussions of it. sorry... which gwp is this happening with?
Quote from Taryn :
The cabana robe, but I don't know if it happens with every one and I just don't notice. :confused :
I was the one that had the issue with the scarf that anni remembers. We never did figure out what that meant. Unfortunately, I can't remember if I still placed the order. I ended up with at least 4 them, but I don't remember if I ordered those before I got the message. Once again, I'm no help at all. Facepalm I'll try the robe now to see if I get that message too.

Quote from Tizzylicious :
Noooo but I'm eyeing it. I want to try the thickening lotion. I've heard good things about the line tho. :nod :

I'm jealous of you ladies with TJ's and WF close by. I have neither. :sadwalk :
Please remind us about that thickening lotion, when Folica has another deal. I'm sure I won't remember it. Embarrassment

My DS buys most of his food at Nutrition Smart on Dale Mabry. He says it's like Whole Foods, but cheaper. Apparently, they also have sales. I'm pretty sure it's across from Walmart off Fletcher. It's definitely in that general area. He said there's also Abby's Health & Nutrition behind the Tampa Picture show. It's supposed to be a bit more expensive than Nutrition Smart. There's also a Whole Foods on Dale Mabry, but it's in the South Dale Mabry area. It wouldn't be what I consider close enough to buy my groceries at, but I stay within a 5 mile drive radius. laugh out loud

Taryn, I tried the robe & didn't get that message. Maybe, there's a limit on how many they'll let you have. Dontknow

As I replied above, I just tried it & didn't get the message. Confused I've already ordered it, so I don't know why she's having problems. Sorry, Taryn.

So despite all this health talk, I went to get one of the half priced fraps from Starbucks today. I got a strawberry cream one. Man, it was just now worth it, it seems like since they started the Have-it-your-way fraps thing, strawberry fraps are super watery and tasteless whichever starbucks I get the from. Q_Q Anyone know how to order one so that they taste like they used to?

People are reporting getting mailers for the beach towel. Is it not going to be offered online for everyone?

Maybe it will be! I want one! I hope they can at least post the online code or something! Might be like that Angel wing bag where people got mailers and I didn't but was able to get it online?

At mall ladies! My vs has free MLB dogs with a MLB purchase! Select cities and stores! I bet they're rare!
Omg I just realized they have MLB dogs bounce I like to collect the dogs, so if anyone has/gets a spare from any city, I would love to trade. Mine would be Phillies. They aren't released yet as far as I know, but let me know if you want to trade because I'll just get as many as I have traders for heart

I am in serious need of caffeine right now! Yawn

Quote from GoHeels :
I need to do that too. My shelves & racks are so full the one on the back wall fell to the ground the other day. Most of it doesn't even fit now. There's no room for my new clothes either. Maybe, you can get me motivated to clean my closet out too.
GH, I'm crackin' the whip! Whip laugh out loud
I'm so glad I cleaned today. It's very therapeutic for me to get rid of clutter. I wound up with 3 bags of new or like new things. A friend told me about Plato's Closet so I went to the two closest to me and made a few buckaroos. The remainder will be going to donation. bounce

Same here, I love cleaning! But it sounded like you really cleaned house. I don't think I'd ever be able to clean as much as you just did!

Quote from Taryn :
I'm sure this is old news, but what's the deal with this "A GWP can be applied to a limited number of items, and all other GWPs will be full price" stuff? If there's a numerical limit on GWPs when it's "one per order" in the terms, they should just say so. I'm assuming "one per order" isn't the "limited number" they're referring to. Or is it?
I am not sure why that pops up, I had it on something that was a GWP recently and in the past, I think even on stuff that is one per order. I have never been charged additional fee.
