So they should've only rang you up as one, ie the price it was being advertised for. Yes a FREE coupon I would've expected for the raincheck. Sounds like you got it though so happy to hear it. I haven't had much experience with mine yet. Wish me luck, I plan on going this weekend. Wow, okay so you should’ve got a Buy one get one FREE right?

That allows you to put up images of books that YOU like and recommend into posts or your sidebars. I think that route would totally work for you. :) Heidi: You could try Amazon affiliates.

Thanks for the idea about ads on my blog site. I did think about it but was conflicted ... only because my blog topic is about giving away our money and religious issues. I felt a little squeamish about ads tied to that. But maybe I could find ads that would be for groups that could benefit from them and then donate any proceeds accordingly. That might actually be a good idea, especially if my readers know about it. Hmm, you've got me thinking now ... hmm .... :-) Hi Karen!

It would help generate some income. I gave Tanyetta a little nudge with that issue too. :o) BTW Heidi, have you thought about putting some ads on your site? It would help generate some income.

If they didn't have it in stock again this time I would have. If they're smart about their PR, they're probably reading the blogs. ;) About contacting CVS – I haven’t contacted them yet.

I decided I wasn't going to continue wasting my time and gas until I needed to. I knew it was only going to make me angry! I finally went back in there this week because they had Colgate buy 1 get 1 free and I had some $1 coupons. I got the Colgate for 50 cents each! It is hard to turn down a bargain. :) Had it been a higher ethical issue, I probably wouldn't have returned. I can't punish all of CVS for one person's stupidity. If that were the case, I would never step in another Wal-Mart or Target. ;) Heidi: After a few tries, I decided not to go back in there looking for it until I was ready to shop.

My. Gosh. You are kidding, right? How many weeks has it been? I hope you've written a letter to corporate about this and pointed out that you've also BLOGGED about it. Oh and bravo to Tanyetta -- you said it all so well! This whole blog entry and experience of yours and the reactions you've received have been so interesting to me. Will you ever shop at this place again? That's the question I have. :-) But I wouldn't judge you negatively if the deals were too good to still pass up, ha ha. After all, as my dad used to tell me, "Take the money to the bank and run, regardless of the injustice." Oh. My. Gosh.

You know in your heart how you truly feel about what happened and what should happen to rectify the situation. That's al that matters. One thing that BOILS MY EGG is when I'm feeling some type of way about something and people tell me to 'calm down' or 'stop over-reacting' areyoukiddingmerightnow? Telling me how to feel about something? Really? Ok, I'm done. :) Karen,
