bookmark_border'Tis the season

Meg rightly points out some Amazon wish list mysteries, and I’ll add another gotcha ‘found’ by a friend.

If someone buys you a pressie from Amazon they can specify that it is a gift. If, for whatever reason, you have to return it note that they won’t just let you exchange it, or give you a credit note for it, they WILL notify the giver and refund the item back to them.

Now, I understand why this happens, but it’s just that they don’t make it clear.

Anyway, now you know so you need not get caught out on Boxing Day.

bookmark_borderMerry Christmas to all

I’ll be about tomorrow but have lots to do so I thought I’d take a moment to wish everyone a Merry Christmas. If you don’t celebrate Christmas then enjoy your day off. If you don’t have a day off.. emmm.. sorry..

I’ve gotten today’s posting out of the way for the most part (scroll down) and will be here on a random basis over the next few days.
