I agree, but I still get embarrassed when sometimes I slip out something, for example I slipped out at a friends house about the BS glitch, then as soon as I had opened my mouth, I realised I was giving them one of the gift sets in their xmas box. You dont spend any less on them (not that that matters) you just can give them better quality/quantity gifts.

I've had that before DM. It's funny how when you tell someone how much something cost you, the present seems less worthwhile to them. Surely it's the gift itself (not the money that came out of your pocket) that's the main thing? I've decided to keep quiet about it with pretty much everyone and just say 'I got a good deal'.

My parents know their gift won't have cost me much but my Dad will love that :rotfl:

I was on the phone within minutes....but they say they can't do anything while the payment us pending. I would say that's the VERY BEST time to do something:cool:

They will have to wait until it's paid. I've cancelled my card too which is going to be a huge inconvenience leading up to christmas:o

since the website has a "right to cancel prior to shipping" clause, email them now. They might still process the charge but at least if you do this then you can more easily dispute it with your bank as you cancelled per the advertised terms of the retailer .
