  1. How do you get to the sale/clearance section?
  2. EEEk - shipping is $7.13 (and $11.23 for 3 of them)... anyone have any free ship from Target codes?
  3. Glad you posted an update - let us know what else happens!! I HATE poor customer service so i'm so glad you can do something about this one...
  4. well, poop! i wanted that saw, too, AND i normally check the night before, also! :) i hope you get it!!
  5. why when i click on that link does it give me Altec Lansing inMotion IM9 Mobile Speaker System? i think i want those tools...how can i get there? are they sold out and put another item up for sale, maybe? help??
  6. It depends on what the percentage of price guarantee. Here's 2 different break-downs depending if it's 110% or 115% (it's not HUGE savings, but every little bit helps, right?): 110% Price Guarantee Site X = $74.99 Site Y = $99.95 (Site Y must be the price-matching site) Difference = $24.96 110% = $27.46 Final Price from Site Y = $72.49 115% Price Guarantee Site X = $74.99 Site Y = $99.95 (Site Y must be the price-matching site) Difference = $24.96 115% = $28.70 Final Price from Site Y = $71.25
  7. LOL! Ok - y'all have a good point - those shoes are pretty bad! Here's a better example (these are my style of shoes)... <a href="http://s136.photobucket.com/albums/q165/sillychiky/?action=view&current=shoes1.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i136.photobucket.com/albums/q165/sillychiky/shoes1.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a> Beverly Feldman Women's Play-Along Platform Pump Amazon price = $52.49 Shoes.com price = $174.99 $122.50 difference 122.50 * 115% = $140.88 $174.99 - $140.88 = $34.12 Final Price <a href="http://s136.photobucket.com/albums/q165/sillychiky/?action=view&current=shoes_iaec1057804.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i136.photobucket.com/albums/q165/sillychiky/shoes_iaec1057804.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a> Beverly Feldman Women's Amazing T-Strap Pump Amazon price = $68.99 Shoes.com price = $229.99 $161.00 difference $161.00 * 115% = $185.15 $229.99 - $185.15 = $44.84 Final Price There's a lot more cute ones, and I'd love to post them, but I gotta get up and go to work. Regarding the shipping question - I have Amazon Prime and I just tell them that, but sometimes there are shoes on Amazon from another retailer when Prime doesn't cover the shipping charges - that's when I add the shipping amount to the price of the shoes.
  8. This is how I order almost all of our shoes now - I learned it from another web site several months ago and have saved a lot of money on some great shoes. Zappos.com and Shoes.com have a 110% and 115% price guarantee respectively. If you find shoes you want on any web site, check Zappos.com and Shoes.com for the same shoe. If the same shoes are more expensive on Zappos.com/Shoes.com, order them from Zappos.com/Shoes.com, and then call for a price match. The representative will ask for the web site name to verify the price difference. NOTE: The shoes have to be the EXACT same color and size (so if you buy 8M and all that Amazon has is 8W then NO price match.) They take the difference between their full price & the cheaper price you found on another site & multiply it by 110/115. They credit your account that amount. Example: <a href="http://s136.photobucket.com/albums/q165/sillychiky/?action=view&current=shoes4.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i136.photobucket.com/albums/q165/sillychiky/shoes4.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a> Charles by Charles David Women's Carumba Flat These shoes on Amazon = $20.98 Size 6M, green (I know - not the most beautiful shoe) Same shoes on Shoes.com = $91.99 Size 6M, green $91.99 - 20.98 = $71.01 price difference $71.01 * 115% price guarantee = $81.66 credit $91.99 - 81.66 = $10.33 Final price of shoes If Amazon has a shipping charge, that amount is added to the price of the shoes, so the shoes plus shipping amount is used to calculate price difference / price guarantee. Amazon had a huge shoes clearance a while back and I got several brand name shoes for 90+% off. You can start here for an entry into the clearance zone based on your size. I hope I wrote that so it is clear and is not too confusing. I have saved so much money from gottadeal.com - I hope I can help someone else save, too! (I could not find this “process” previously posted, but sorry if it's a duplicate.)
  9. Do you have any idea how long the AG office takes to resolve complaints of this nature? I second the idea kaysamlyss mentioned earlier to contact your local news station so they can do one of those "On Your Side" type of stories. The ones I've seen always contact the local store AND corporate. In addition, the consumer (i.e. you) gets their issue resolved, and the local public is made aware of the situation with that merchant. Good luck and keep us posted. (I have no idea why this story interests me - I'm not in RI, and if I purchase an item with a MIR, I almost always fail to send it in!)
  10. If I understand correctly, she wasn't encouraging the boys to do anything dishonest by trying to "return" the game for full credit. The boys just wanted to know how much in-store GameStop credit they could receive for the sealed game (GameStop has a trade-in program to trade in your games for less than the value of the game to use on future GameStop purchases). Had the employee mentioned he needed to open the game/seal, the boys could have made the decision to return the game Target for cash (or store credt) if they wanted. Now they don't have that option.
  11. The music isn't very loud if you try to listen to it, but when you're brushing your teeth, you can hear it fine - it's not stereo quality, but it does the trick. For us, it's neat (at least that's our opinion)!
  12. Wow - I'd be very upset, too! They usually have great customer service! Maybe if you sent an email to corporate they could help?
  13. i am on my 2nd one and both came with pump - not sure if they all do or if i just got lucky?
  14. sheesh! i just ordered 5 sets of sheets!! i love it and hate it at the same time!!! i ordered 3 satin sets and 2 of these sets (one in brown, one in blue): http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/B000KUM2BU/ref=ord_cart_shr?%5Fencoding=UTF8&m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&v=glance Pike Street 420-Thread-Count Egyptian Cotton Damask 6-Piece King Sheet Set, Brown <a href="http://s136.photobucket.com/albums/q165/sillychiky/?action=view&current=41qqUrlMEgL__AA280_.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i136.photobucket.com/albums/q165/sillychiky/41qqUrlMEgL__AA280_.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a>
  15. Thank you!! I couldn't get the 15% off coupon but the $5 off worked fine! I had to to call customer service because I couldn't get the $9.99 tin to go to the same recipient as the rest of the order, but she took the code (I didn't try to give her the 15% code cuz $5 was more than 15%).
  16. I would definately use the two gift cards to buy three gifts, or if it's not enough for three gifts, stick grandpa's name on a gift you got for the 3rd one that didn't get a card (I know you got a TON of stuff from Amazon - I've been reading those posts!). :) I recently found out that my Dad used to get us gifts and put tags on them like they were from my Mom. Wow - the respect I have for him for ignoring his ill feelings towards my mom so that we would not feel bad that she forgot us again - very unselfish!
  17. As a person that used to be in the same situation as your friend, I strongly suggest to NOT give them to her with your name on them. The stress of not having money around Christmas time is unbelievable, and the guilt and embarrassment of having people buy things for your kids because you can't is awful. I really like the idea of getting them to her anonymously. It's a win-win solution!
  18. here's a link to the 50% small appliances: sorry - can't get link to work, but if you go to the small appliance category, then in the middle of the page in the brown rectangle it says 50% off - click that box. there's not much left but some good deals if it's what you need.
  19. Do you have to purchase Photobucket Pro to be able to see the ad? it says bandwidth exceeded and to upgrade to Pro?
  20. Everyone of all ages gets a can of silly string (canned string) and every year we act like we're gonna wait til after we eat breakfast to have the spray-off, but someone inevitably starts the silly string fight within minutes of starting to open stockings. everyone tears open their cans and it's string WAR for a few minutes. the little kids usually run from the room screaming while the big "kids" steal their cans of string. Lotsa fun. Lotsa mess. Lotsa good family memories.
  21. when I copied and pasted the discount code it kept looping me like you're talking about - when i actually typed in the 4 digit number it gave me the discount
  22. thank you!! i'm in for more gift cards! i wished i had purchased more yesterday, so glad this came around again - and so soon!
