I love my garden, and I have to admit, some windchimes my son gave me were one of my favorite gifts. So pretty, they had a little cat statue on top, and long brass pipes. I'm waiting for the snow to melt before I hang them though, will be just in time for all the nice breezes we usually get in March anyway. I can't wait LOL.

You know I'm glad I saw this here. My brother in law just had a baby with his wife, and he's a doctor. Baby scrubs were SUCH a cute gift, and everyone in the family got such a kick out of the idea. Thanks for the fun suggestion!

Thanks, Maggie D! We checked out DealOz.com and it is a great resource. I'd like to recommend it the next time I do a write up on books. Thank you so much for sharing!

DealOz.com is another one that lets you compare prices of books. Usually it's true that Amazon, Half.com, Alibris, and the ones you mentioned are the cheapest, but sometimes it finds a book somewhere else. Worth checking, although it's a little slow and not the easiest to navigate. Thanks fro the info!

I especially love getting books at Amazon. I'm a teacher, and the local library really doesn't give me a good selection, so I went on Amazon and bought a lot of the books I used to use for teaching at my prior school. You are right, for many of them I paid only the cost of shipping, plus ten or fifteen cents. Amazon is really a great source for books at a great price!

OK, well I think the ski boat is a nice idea. That would be nice when no one is there to pull you. But the dinosawr, wow, who has one of those? I need a million bucks or so and I can afford to get one. :)

Thanks for the info! I needed some water bottles for the kid's new pet rabbits and because of your post I went to Tractor Supply instead of Wal-Mart, and it turns out they have better water bottles and dishes fro less money, and bigger bags of food for a LOT less, and everything else we needed too. great info!

This thread has great information on shopping. A friend of mine told me about this cool app that allows you to get instant feedback from your Facebook friends on whether you should buy something or not (for themselves or as a gift). Here's the link - I think the app is coming out around Black Friday but you can sign up now:

Hate to add another "same thing happened to us..." but it did. We got a $35 charge for a movie that was returned. They said they will refund the money, but I will only give them to the end of the week.

After that I will dispute the charge on my card, and get in contact with the BBB.

2009-05-19T15:53:13.460-07:00

My experience was I rented 3 movies for 1 night. returned them the next night . Should have cost me 3 dollars right. waited 2 weeks for the charge to come through and then they charged me 18 dollars!!
called them up and the girl was very helpful at least as much as she could, but it was going to cost me 6 dollars for the movies anyway becaus e they were charging for movies again that i had rented 6 months before. Worst of all they overdrew my account and I had to pay a 25 dollar NSF fee.

I accidentally returned Redbox movies into a moviecube kiosk and when I called moviecube to get my movies back they basically told me to bad. Theives!!! I hope they go out of business. They are horrible. This is costing me at least 80.00 for the movies they stole from me!

2009-01-19T09:34:00.000-08:00

the same happened to me, i called to report the machine was not allowing me to return three movies, I called, they gave me the instructions to drop it off in the box located in the back of the machine. not 14 days later, my back a charge of $113.67 for these movies, i call to complaint and they say they found the movies but they can only give me credit for $90!! they also told me they noted my account that i rejected their offer!! Unbelievable. I won't stop until this gets resolved

2009-01-17T20:15:00.000-08:00

Similar return nightmare still just starting with me. I rented a movie that I was returning. My 1 year old son was with me, asleep of course in the car. Thinking, I could be in and out and the DVD box was by the door, I locked my son in the car, at the curb, right by the door to Alberson?, Anyway...

...I run inside and try to return the movie. No luck, cannot find any instruction, no phone numbers here I could see. I ask someone at the store what they knew about it, nothing. Finally, in despiration with the time this is taking, I gave my movie to the customer service rep. I asked them, if they would be kind enough to return the movie for me, once they could get it working. I told them my son was out front asleep.

I figured at least the movie would be in the store. This was a few days ago. I was planning on going up there tomorrow to make sure it was returned.
Tonight, I have been billed on my credit card...

Rediculous. Stupid on my part about assuming it would be taken care of, but it was a manager, and it appears here that it doesnt matter if you return it on time or not, you still get shafted.

Sounds like some trouble needs to be made for these folks. Sadly for them, this just happened to the wrong person. I'll fix em tomorrow.

I will try to remember this site and let you know how it goes. I'll get my cash back and then some.

These PUNKS are going to get what they deserve.

2008-10-08T02:31:00.000-07:00

I live in Antioch, TN, and I had a similar experience. I had rented a few movies from the Moviecube using my 2 debit cards at different times.
One day, while I was at work, and several weeks later, I noticed that new charges came up in my bank accounts! One was $22.94 the other was I think more than that. I called the company but the rude girl on the other end hung up on me. When I finally got someone to speak to, he kept me on hold for a long time I had to hang up. Both cases are now being disputed through my banks. I will soon post an article on the web regarding this fraudulent activity. I think bad publicity is what moviecube needs, and I will give it to them.
Moviecube is a fraud!
