It's not like you can spend PC points on tuition, text books and school supplies... isnt that what students are trying to save money for?

EXACTLY, and when I went to customer service to put in a complaint card, I was talking with the lady working there who is ALSO a student at Brock and she completely agreed. But when we were talking saying that we hope they change it back, another lady at the desk rudely said "There's not a chance they'll bring it back", all I thought was, "Are you the damn manager of the store... No, so don't talk crap you don't know"

when your putting together a halloween costume and you can't find the props you need.. you'd think it would be easy to find... oh heck no.. walmart doesn't sell sheep herders crooks in there halloween supplies.. and neither does the pop up halloween stores... sure they sell $130 beauty and the best belle costumes for a 6yr old.. but a sheep herders crook.. nope!

i'm going to have to resort to insanity and try and dare i say it.. try and create one! i've already sewn the costume why not make the crook too!

Would it be possible to wait a little closer to halloween? You might be able to get a cheap candy cane lawn decoration that you could turn into a sheep herder crook with some creativity.

i considered that, but i'd be cutting it kinda close with the halloween to christmas change over.. and it would need to be a 5ft candy cane.. i may just be pushing my luck... i've done some googling.. you can bend PVC pipes with a heat gun, we have a heat gun and PVC pipes are cheap enough.. asked hubby and we have a heat gun so we're going to give it a try

Seems I am SOL.
I went online and read the details about how it actually is the last day that Sears will give a refund to anyone who bought their plan 30 days ago.

I bought this renewal on June 5th. It says it is good till 2020

ha ha ha ..Nope!
I am now out the $130.00 I paid to extend the previous warranty on my dyer.

Thanks Sears!!

If you payed by credit card you may have some luck getting a refund from the credit card company. I’ve read Facebook post where credit card companies refunded them.

I was going to suggest this- it's kind of a bad faith business move on Sears' part. I don't know why they didn't sell off their warranties to another company. I still remember the elderly lady yelling at me in Eaton's December 1998 about her dryer- learn, companies, LEARN from others!

I slept through garbage day. And I have some furniture to go and I don't want to drag it to the dump and pay when I can get free pick-up here.
