Aww, Shaynon & Undrallio, you all are so sweet to think of gifts for your mom & Abby. I was being selfish, they sound nice for me, lol. :D I hope they come. Since they're from the main company, a real company too, than it's promising. But then again the Sculpey clay never came, and it was from a real company too. I'm still disappointed about that one.

Aww, Goob! I think you just called me selfish! :D Should I hang my head in shame because I sent away for them for myself? I could be a good grandma and say they are for my darling 9 qne 12 year old granddaughters but they would be lethal in their hands. OH! I know! I sent away for them for my 28 yr. old son! Yeah! That's it! Whew! I thought I was selfish there for a minute.

LoL

LOL, I'm sorry that I caused a ruckus with this one, hee hee. Yup, I'm selfish, very selfish sometimes. But sometimes it's ok to be just a little. I know the truth, "sister" and "mom" are code for yourselves too ;) ha ha. I've got a sis that I've had to share things with forever, so I will probably end up sharing too, but... :whining: I dont wanna!! :crybaby:
Oh, and Shaynon, when you 'borrow' them from Abby, tell her that you are being a responsible and caring big sister by "testing them" to make sure they work properly, lol!



BTW I :wub: artsy crafty freebies. So companies out there that are secretly lurking :ninja: to see what our customer feedback is, here us now, we've all got 'family' that likes kewl crafty stuff. Get on that riight away. :emot-dance:

Yep! This one went fast! I could not believe it when I checked back here later and saw it was gone! Poof! I came on here pronto and posted that I couldn't get the site up anymore.

I'm glad some of you got some use out of it! Goes to show you......click fast! :P I feel bad for those that didn't get there quick enough! :(

There is a note about this one over on the front page, comments section. Attaching it here too just in case.
Looks like the offer is null. Shame on Pentel, not only for backing out of a promise, and false advertising, but also for getting our hopes up. Cheapskates. :thumbdown: I will boycott, and only buy stuff from their competitors. :ranting: Not even a simple little pencil will be bought with their name on it. Take that Pentel! :grr:
Okay, off my venting soapbox now.. lol

Quick edit: BTW the HIF community is so magnificent here, that that's the first time I've ever had to look up the angry smilies. Glad to have a use for them.

They suck!!! Has anyone heard of this happening before? I know I've gone to sites where they've posted something to the effect of due to free web site...yada, yada, yada, but this!! Shouldn't they have had something on the page where our info was typed in at? I sure don't remember seeing anything like that.

Well, they're off my Christmas list! :angry: That's some back peddling!

Rookies! They should have known we are out here! :D

Yeah, unfortunately, this happens from time to time. I had Xerox contact me last week asking to take an offer down and then this happened this week. It's a pain, no doubt, but I guess they have a right time limit who gets the freebies and who doesn't.

That doesn't mean I have to like their decision though! :)
