allshoppedout Posted November 16, 2011 Share Posted November 16, 2011 I don't recall ever subscribing to any threads in the past 4 years I have been here, but I saw it was an option and so I tried to subscribe to a few threads which discussed toys/cameras/etc that I wanted to see what people replied to after my posts/questions.I keep hitting subscribed (to various threads) and never get a notification. What am I doing wrong? I know there have been posts after me, because I've gone back and checked some of the threads.It would be time saving for me to just get a notice. Also, slightly off topic but ONLINE when I search things for walmart online, I'll choose an item and then it says it is either "available (or not available) in YOUR _________ Store." and it is a store I have NOT chosen, it does this every time, I click to CHANGE my store... and then the next day/week whenever I got back onto the site, it has the OTHER store back in there, which is in the same COUNTY but I wouldn't want to drive and shop at the store. anyone know how to remedy This??

conj Posted November 16, 2011 Share Posted November 16, 2011 when you subscribe to a thread it brings you to another screen where you get to pick how you are notified. I LOVE the subscribe feature. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I LOVE the subscribe feature.Yes, I saw that page, and little box comes down and I hit INSTANT subscription by email...but nothing in email, nothing in spam folder. I regularly get the "gottadeal BF ads are out" type emails, so that "works" Don't get it.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brad Posted November 16, 2011 Share Posted November 16, 2011 That fact that you have an @yahoo.com e-mail address might be the issue. For some reason Yahoo is not delivering a lot of messages sent from the forum (PM notifications, new account confirmations, subscription e-mails). Maybe check your spam folder or see if you can add forums(at)gottadeal(dot)com to your "safe senders" list if Yahoo has such a thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(via private message)? That'd be easier, I use my newer email address more, as I was getting ton of spam on Yahoo...Thanx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
