Most of the dollar store items were things she just grabbed off the shelf I'm sure as they were things we, as yorkie owners, would never use. And yes, this has been going on FAR too long.
Her motivation: She gets really, really nice GE boxes and doesn't have to worry about what she sends because I'm sure she considers her sewing time as labor and applies her "labor" towards her $25 minimum purchase.
It's just unfair on so many fronts and I'm not in the GE this time. I will be honest........it's because of her I sat this one out. None of us like getting "burned" and we all idolize our furbutts and those of others and like to make the GE special and fun and enjoy getting nice surprises but when you get someone like this that repeatedly sends out a box that no one wants, it makes everyone a bit worried in the next GE that she will be their SB. And then on top of that, she only posts a couple clues.....then the excuses begin. |
Dianne, she was our buddy a couple of GEs back and our box was late by almost a whole month. I think that was the time "her daughter was in an accident." That GE almost did me in too. I am glad to see this being addressed. I hope you don't let your bad experience detour you from participating in future GEs.
As for "some" of the rest of you....my computer's parental controls blocked me from this thread.
I didn't even know I had those kind of "controls" cuz my kids are way past having to worry about that stuff......
