Well the 10x worked out for me, because Staples screwed me. Ordered the new ipad air for DH on Nov 29. It's been sitting in processing ever since. I sent an email requesting a status last week, heard nothing. Did a live chat this morning, and they tell me it's out of stock and my order cancelled. Grrrr... It was in stock when I ordered. I'm so angry. Anyway, the source had one colour left in stock. Ordered it for instore pickup, supposed to be available Friday. It's green, not the colour I would have chosen, but at least it isn't the pink for DH. I'm just fuming right now. They offered me a "$15 credit on my next order". Really? What I wanted was what I ordered, or at least a quick notification that it wasn't going to happen. And of course I am sure the airmiles which were already awarded will be clawed back.

I am kind of in the same boat with a couple of other online retailers. They both show "shipped" but one is supposed to be coming from a Canadian source and I am told by their customer service it is sitting at the border. What the heck?!?! Then another has been sitting in shipped status since the 7th of Dec and their customer service cannot answer why it has not been pick up by UPS. I am really stuck and I am trying to decide if I need to make some replacement purchases like you did. I tried to cancel both orders but cannot because they have both "shipped". Ridiculous!

Well my Staples order is showing processing when I log in, even though I have received the item. Live Chat told me he sees that the order was cancelled therefore, that is why I wasn't even billed! But, I did get my air miles for it LMAO

What a cluster F**k!

OMG, what? you got your item, but they say your order is cancelled and didn't charge you for it? *** is going on with Staples. I might get to keep my airmiles since they are so disorganized, but now I'm worried I'll end up getting/paying for 2 iPads!

This is what my order looks like when I log in:

I hate how shipping is going. I have an order from Shoppers that was placed Nov. 29 and shows as being picked up by Canada Post Dec. 4th. Tracking it showed it should be to me by the 6th. Nope, they changed that to the 8th. Nope, now expected delivery shows 'item delayed-stay tuned for updates'. What the heck does that mean?
It started from Mississauga and only has to go down the road 100 miles. Right now it's in Stoney Creek, not sure why. I don't think I am ever getting it. Grrrrr.

 

[hdrolfe]

Canada Post has been in the news about deliveries and how overwhelmed they are. Hopefully it reaches you by Christmas, but I don't think they are guaranteeing anything now. I believe most of the couriers are in the same boat, it's overwhelming because of how many people are online shopping to stay home.

 

[ilovetotravel1977]

@tinkerone I had part of an order from Bentley that said "item delayed-stay tuned for updates" for at least a week, but yesterday it changed to Dec 16 delivery date. So hang in there!

My Indigo order split into three piece: 1 book, 2 apple accessories, 1 EOS lip balm.

I have been waiting for the lip balm for weeks now! Like, *** throw it in with one of the others, duh! Anyways, when I click on the tracking button I get this:



I put an email into Indigo Customer Service to see the heck is going on with this LIP BALM. I only ordered it to get free shipping LOL

I too am waiting for an online order (from Penningtons). It shipped on November 30. The status kept saying "it's on it's way". I got an email advising that the delivery date was December 9, that changed to December 11 and now it says "Item delayed". My package shows it went from SK to ON to AB...I am in Ontario. What is funny is that this order was split and I have already received the other order and it was shipped December 7 and received December 10. I am starting to think I will never receive my tops.

 

[ilovetotravel1977]

Follow up to my Staples debacle, I just got an email from them saying my item has been shipped LOL Which means I will be returning it and getting a refund LOL This just keeps getting better and better.

I had an order like this. It was supposed to be tracked. Canada Post picked it up then put it in regular mail which is why didn't appear to be getting anywhere. I received it in regular mail yesterday two weeks after it was picked up by Canada Post.

Meanwhile, the Duck took her sweet time and put together 2 orders tonight. One is from Well.ca which is literally 5 minutes away from our house -- only picked items I know they have stocked in that warehouse, it will be here before Friday. The other is from Amazon and i didn't finish placing the order until 12:05 but again, i carefully picked items that only say next day delivery, it's guaranteed to be here before 10 pm TODAY! And I know it will be since they use dedicated trucks for Prime delivery. I won't get the 10X miles for my Amazon order since it was after midnight but it doesn't matter since nothing was in any of the allowed categories, just things i really really REALLY want!

Can anyone tell me about the Sobeys offer in the new flyer: spend $50 and get a offer coupon good for the following week (or something like that). Anyone know what this is or what it's been in the past if this has been offered before?

Thanks.

 

[dancin Disney style]

Count me in....I've got things that I ordered on Black Friday/Cyber Monday that has been shipped but still not here. One of the packages shows delivery due Dec 8. It shows as taking 2 days to get from Penticton to Mississauga and then sitting there for 7 days. From there it's been sitting in Oakville but still not out for delivery.

Dec 26 to Jan 6 (double check this as even with my glasses on it's hard to read).

They've run this offer in the past. If you are in the habit of shopping at Sobeys regularly it can be a great deal. Rexall regularly does this. It's just a way for the store to get you to come back next week and spend more money.

What I usually do with this kind of offer (because I don't like them) is I go back the next week but just purchase the minimum required to use the coupon. I would rather get AM than a coupon.
