I had bought something that was for the kid of a friend for Christmas, or if I had guessed wrong I was going to give it to toys for tots.

But Wal-Mart hates orphans, so nevermind.

Walmart killed Santa.

Both my orders have been cancelled, but they don't give Paypal refunds so they're just going to keep my money.

This could become very entertaining before it's done.

Nice.

I saw a bunch of people using Paypal for fear that the site had been hacked. Welcome to a new headache.

This guy had his three $230 monitors arrive after paying $23 apiece.

The same guy said, "I had another later order cancelled so I'm getting a $10 gift card too hah. I'm never this lucky and I'm truly grateful for these."

There's a super center right a mile or so away. Fucking hell, I would've grabbed at least four of these. I would have slammed an energy drink in the middle of the night and headed over had I known. Fuck fuck fuck fuck.

My $10 card arrived today.

Got more order cancellations over night. A few orders still not canceled.

So it shakes down to one order cancelled (and refunded) and one shipped.

Here's the gift card they sent me, someone use it if you want because I won't:

Card Amount: $10.00
Card Number: 6075286091844738
PIN: 9897

My wife tried to use both of ours in the store and was denied. She had a bunch of stuff for Christmas and when she was denied, she left all the items at the register and walked.

I still have one order out there that says "Processing".

I returned something to Walmart one time.... those people behind the counter seemed like the unhappiest people on the planet.

i still haven't been refunded my money yet.. The e-mail states that the money was never taken out but was put on hold by the bank. Not sure who to get ahold of for this, maybe the bank but ill give it another day or so.

But come on, the rollbacks. Hahahahahahahahahahahahaha.

What did you end up getting?

Posted: **Mon Nov 11, 2013 12:13 pm**

Some chocolate, of a type I haven't seen in stores. It was a reasonable sale price instead of a mistakenly good deal. Not really worth mentioning if it weren't on the day of madness.

Posted: **Mon Nov 11, 2013 12:20 pm**

Ah, gotcha. All my shit got canceled except for the TV. But since I was supposed to receive it today, I'm guessing it's just a matter of time til it gets canceled. Currently still Processing.

OK, I thieved TPR's Walmart code to buy my daughter a birthday present.

Balance Due$6.66

One of my co-workers ordered a nice car stereo for $8 (for in-store pickup). The order was cancelled and refunded and she got a $10 code. She got an email at lunch that her order was ready to be picked up. She went to the store and picked it up, and paid for it with the $10 code.

Free stereo.

So... after the Walmart thing, I tried to get NFL Madden 25 Xbox 360 (or PS3) for $5 on Amazon tonight. It was supposed to be a deal for Kindle Fire owners. However, it wouldn't show up on my Kindle Fire.

So I went to the shop icon, and searched, found it for $5, clicked Add to Cart... nothing happened.

Searched through Silk, and it was $50.

I ended up calling them and complaining. It took 12 minutes on the phone, but I got it for $5.
