That unfortunately there are many people that manage to abuse every system out there and therefore the store had to end the promotion.

Hence the word 'Sickening'

On what basis do you say that there was any abuse here at all?

[SPGDUDE]

Anyone know of an early mincha today besides for kol shimshon?

[snapit]

A family meber collected these things for some time. They traded etc and just recently went inside to get them honored and they said i'm sorry but we ended the promotion.
Im not 1 hundred percent it was pizza on wheels but IIRC the magnets did spell that.
I thought it was disgusting of them. Just honor it! It costs them pennies and it seems that people really collected them.

That's sickening. I think we need to start a 16 week mandatory customer service course before you can open a store in Lakewood.

Most promotions have an end date, just that in this case I don't think that was ever publicized. I don't think it was pennies either, weren't they giving out gift certificates to other stores?

Whether it was costing them pennies or not is irrelevant. If a promotion doesn't have an end date, they shouldn't end it abruptly and leave everyone hanging

Especially one that takes most people at least a few months to complete

That unfortunately there are many people that manage to abuse every system out there and therefore the store had to end the promotion.

i just called them to ask if the magnets are still redeemable and they said "sure no problem just bring them in." not pointing fingers but no need to bash a business without verifying.

[ydbe]

Thanks for verifying. I just recently got some in my last delivery, so I know the promo is still going. Plus, I can't understand how someone can say there's fraud going on... Would someone bother printing the magnets @ home? Kudos to snapit for calling!

[Luvisrael]

I've actually heard of lowy before, where is he located?
Or a phone number?

i used her. shes on west kennedy before Mesivta.

[CS1]

I've used them many times, they're very good and have great CS! AFAICR they do ask for prescription though

that's fine. Is the prescription allowed to be 2.5 years old?

[HBS]

My personal experience is 1 year max, but ymmv

Did you guys see that video of the car crash today?! The minivan that hit the suv was attempting to make a LEFT TURN OVER THE YELLOW LINES IN MIDDLE OF ROUTE 9!!! Now that’s just plain stupidity! Someone will die from this Lakewood driving one day!

Is the same as making a left turn from any street onto route 9. The issue there is that the closed up lot from yeshiva obstructs your view to see cars coming from your left.

[MosheP]

Does anyone know of,  or can recommend a good babysitter with hours of 9:30-3/4?

Regarding buying new black hats are there any less expensive alternatives that people have had a good experience with.  Any new hat in most of the stores is way above $100.

Second why are they so expensive? Is the mark up very high for this specific items or are the costs of making/shipping etcc high to begin with to justify the over $100 retail price?

Anything Jewish is over priced. So what's the question here?
