Online purchase delayed because of snow. Has this happened to you?

Oh, I'm sure they will read the feedback. Last Christmas I had a gift arrive the day before Christmas and luckily my son was here to get it. Those people refunded me all that I had spent on the gift, they were great! I don't know if Tilly will do anything, though. Everywhere I have worked, I always inspected shipments to make sure we got what we paid for. I thought retailers did that, too. What a lame company, doesn't even check their merchandise! Weather changes constantly! We were supposed to have sleet today and Weather Bug alerted me to it--all we have is a few snowflakes and the advisory was cancelled. I'll hope your Christmas weather doesn't live up to predictions!

Oh, I would have been furious, too! Hmmm, black, white, yeah, it's hard to tell the difference. The worst part of that was you having to pay extra for shipping! I would have demanded that they reimburse me for that. Of course, I wouldn't expect to get it but I'd let them know just how much this cost me, not only the emotional part of it. Oooooh! That makes ME mad and I had nothing to do with it! I'm glad you were able to get that off your chest, though. Isn't myLot wonderful? LOL It looks like we will most definitely be getting freezing rain. You know how it is, we hear a prediction on the Weather Channel, then they change it 20 times before it arrives (or doesn't). Well, they've been saying freezing rain since Saturday so I'm pretty sure we're going to get it. I'll ask my son, the one who has to come early so he can leave early to get some sleep before working that night, if he wants to try it. If he says no, I'll postpone it for the following weekend. I won't let him know he's the decisionmaker, though. He can't handle that kind of pressure.

I paid extra for two-day express and lost that money, too. I think they should reimburse us for that, although I'm sure they're doing all they can to get everything delivered as soon as possible. Still, they should reimburse us the difference between normal shipping and express. We PAID for express and didn't get it. Hmmph! Our mailman didn't make it here one day. Actually, I don't think he made it here on Saturday or Monday. We got very little mail on Tuesday, too. Very strange. I thought they were supposed to deliver no matter what! Neither rain nor sleet nor dark of night... blah blah blah. I guess they could argue that there's nothing in that statement about snow.

Hi Chevee. Yes, I am having a wonderful day, actually. I'm still hurting from the shoveling but I'm feeling much better than I was. I have a lot of energy and have already been able to get a lot done this morning. I hope you're having a great day, too! I sure do hope your book comes soon! I know what it's like to expect something and not have it come. Believe me, I KNOW! LOL My husband said that something he had ordered was delayed but is now out for delivery. It was delayed in the same town that mine is delayed in, but mine is still there while his is on a truck heading this way. Go figure! You know, the oddest thing is happening. The snow blower I ordered on Monday, which they said would take at least 10 days to be delivered (site-to-store) is sitting at the store right now for us to pick up! The gifts I ordered a week ago are still delayed. I just don't get it. Maybe it's because UPS is overwhelmed with all the packages being shipped right now and, with the snowstorm, they're even more backed up while the shipper who shipped the snowblower from the warehouse to the store doesn't have that problem. Oh, well. I'm thinking of this snowblower as the best Christmas gift I've ever received, even if I did buy it myself. LOL You stay safe and keep that wonderful, positive attitude you have. It's always nice to hear what you have to say. I wish you the very best Christmas and hope the New Year is your best ever.

I can understand your being upset when your girlfriend's gift did not come in time for her birthday. The gifts I have coming are not that important. It would be nice to get them before Christmas but, if that doesn't happen, I'll make the most of things and let everyone know what they can expect to receive very soon. I am sure the shippers are doing everything in their power to get everything delivered as soon as possible but the snowstorm we had on Saturday that dumped 33 inches of snow on us has really backed things up.

It is upsetting but I can understand it. I'm sure the shippers are doing everything they can to get all their deliveries made on time. The snowstorm we had on Saturday (33 inches of snow!) just came at a very bad time.
