free cricut cart VENT

[logan&tylersmama]

Ok - So I have been really patient waiting FOREVER for my "free" ($15.00 shipping) cricut cart. I thought it would NEVER be mailed!
Well I got an email last night stating that it left Utah last night and won’t get to CT until March 6 - We had to pay $15.00 for Fed EX shipping and it is going to take that long??? Does this make sense? I can get stuff quicker from the regular post office. THIS IS CRAZY - now watch me get one I already have - that would be my luck!

I had no idea Fed Ex could longer than overnight until this free cart deal. What are they doing with it? Playing frisbee across the nation?

Count yourself as lucky. I have been waiting two months and I havent even gotten and email yet!

Actually, I think they are walking it across the country.

I knew all along that $15 was way inflated. When I got the invoice, it broke it down to I think 7.50 for shipping and 7.50 for "handling". I just never thought of it in my head as a free cart, I thought of it as a $15 mystery grab bag cart.

Hang in there!

Jenn, if it is a duplicate, maybe we can play Let's make a Deal.

It is a bit ridiculous. At least you heard something, I still haven't heard anything about mine. Tomorrow will be 8 weeks since it was mailed. Needless to say I'm less than impressed with Provo Craft right now. If they do another one other in the future I definitely won't be participating. The one excluse to Walmart is stupid because ours has such a pathetic selection of carts and it doesn't work out to that much of a deal.

Here I thought I was the only one! I'm still waiting on my $15 cartridge, too...I'm glad to hear someone heard back from Provo Craft...need to check my bank statement to see if my check was cashed or not...

It is a cart you can use.

 

[Yzerbear19]

OMG! Guess what was in my email this afternoon . . . a Fedex notification. FINALLY!!! Saturday was the 9 week mark since it was mailed it. The free one won't be here until Friday, almost 10 weeks. That is just insane. I've never had a rebate take this long before.

 

[Marshay]

I, too, got an email today about a Fed Ex delivery from Creative Express. I sure hope this is my Cricut Cartridge b/c I don't remember ording anything else.

Now crossing fingers I don't already own it!

mine came last week or the week before. i've lost time in the last complete of weeks. but anyways- it was the tags,bags, boxes and more. it was my 1st choice so i was thrilled. i have not even taken it out of the box. it just sitting on my desk. hoping to find some time to play with it!

I think it is so funny that we waited this long for the cart. and when we get them it takes us two weeks before we even get it out of the package and use it
Mine is sitting on my desk - i did look through the book - glad i have it!

I think maybe Provo Craft has outsized themselves. They started as a family owned craft store in an old building in downtown Provo, Utah. I used to love going there as a kid with my mom. Then they merged or something with a company called Roberts which is a retail store like Micheals or Hobby Lobby. I miss the old eclectic store in the historic district of Provo.

you are right! but i too am glad i have it! it was the one i wanted ever since i saw what nancy made in the fall for the bake sale (i think that's what it was) she made these adorable cookie holders that i just loved. now i just need to find some time to actually open it and use it!

 

[Marshay]

I finally got mine today!! It was "Going Places", not my first choice but this one is cute and I don't have it already!

 

[AlexWyattMommy]

 

[logan&tylersmama]

Make sure you open it and play! I like Going places - but always forget to use it.
HAVE FUN!

YAY! Mine finally arrived! I had my mom go over and open it since my sister and I wouldn't get home until later and I just had to know which one I got. I got my second choice Going Places. I'm happy. I'm glad its one that I can use and not one I already had. Plus I needed shape one to fill up the box with the shape cartridges! LOL
