I looked around for a way to comment but – alas – I am not as computer savy as you and I couldn’t figure it out. Where is my Greggie when I need him? Oh right – he was taking a 45 minute shower.

Anyway, last Saturday I was so proud of myself for buying a bunch of gifts on-line. No lines, no cowds, no angry holiday shoppers. Just me and my computer. Gregg’s niece wanted Bendaroos. (These are some over-priced wax sticks that “bend” to make random shapes.) They cost $19.99 for a pack of 250.

Anyway, in order to even view the product on the Bendaroos.com website – you have to enter in your personal and credit card info. So, I stupidly did it. Then all these pop up options appeared showing hundreds of colors of Bendaroos. I thought I clicked “no” for everything by the “basic package” but I must have selected the “mother load” option instead. (I literally ordered 1200 Bendaroos.) There wasn’t a screen to confirm your order before check out – nothing. Within seconds of the pop-up frenzy ending – a final screen appeared that said “thank you for your order of Bendaros, $79.99 has been charged to your credit card.” What? I thought these crazy pipe-cleaners were 20 bucks?

I realized I need the big guns and I called for Gregg. When went through about 50 useless screens on the website and found that you can only Call customer service from 12-5pm Monday-Friday. Crap! I called Monday morning at 12:30pm and she told me that my order already shipped – tough luck but enjoy your Bendaroos.

I hope my family enjoys Bendaroos for Christmas cause everyone is getting them. Happy Holidays!
