Waiting for my email...hope it comes soon, I REALLY want some earrings!
Awesome! Thanks =)
Yes, I signed up but haven't gotten my email yet, hope it comes.
signed, got my email instintly. I hope its a pair? everything I read said "earring" lol
Thanks!
Got my my e-mail immediatly too - THANKS Colin!
I got the email right away and clicked the link it gave me, it said, "Thank you for your time to verify the email validation. Your free gift will be processed as soon as possible." Here's hoping its before Christmas, it'd be one more thing my sister would love to get.
@ Bridget - that was my thought too. The pictures only show one of each earring color and everything said "earring". I guess we will just wait and see. Signed up and immediately got the email to verify.
Bridget, I was wondering the same thing...I'm not sure what to do with one earring ;-)
signed in but haven't received my e-mail yet either
It says below the registration.....
enter the code "earrings" on the entry form to receive one free pair of earrings.
So you get a pair.
why is my email taking so long :(
They have some NICE priced stuff on their too! $5 for clearance heels, great deal considering I was siked about 7.95 at 6pm.com wooohooo
They actually do sell single earrings, too. I guess it's the 80s thing. If there is only one and I actually receive it, I'll give it to my niece. She's young enough to get away with wearing one giant earring. :D
weird...when I put in my city which only has 4 letters, it came back with an error that the "city" field must have 5 characters.
check your spam mail or any blockers on your e-mail. I too got my e-mail right away - no delay! WOW what if we did only get one earing..lol
I tried signing up for their email list too, and I still haven't gotten either email. :(...not in spam either.
I've got AOL email. Waiting to get my confirmation email, not in my spam file, etc.
mine is netscape (also aol) too...maybe that is the problem
Hmmm, wonder if they know I'm over 29? :)
Signed up, got confirmation but haven't received email. I have comcast email.
Are all of you 29 and under? I guess us ladies in our 30's need to look in for an A.A.R.P. special on earings ;-)
Anonymous 7:39...
I am "too old", too. What a way to start my morning... maybe some shiny earrings will make me feel better.
I got no email either
How do they know if we're over 29?
No email here either!
I just signed up but did'nt get the e-mail.i also checked the spam and it is not there too...
in the end of the form it has written you will receive pair of earings...
I just tried my other "junk" email address, and still no email.
I tried to enter "earrings" and it say promo code incorrect
I'm gonna go sit in my rocking chair and put on my clip-on style faux pearls with other fellow 30 somethings.
make sure it is lower case...I did caps first and that happened to me.
The form requires that your city has 5 characters, guess they've never heard of Ola. But with a couple of -- I came up with 5. lol Waiting for my e-mail.
My virus protection warned against using that website - so I'm just going to skip this offer.
Phew, I'm 29 for 2 more weeks!!! I better hurry up and get on deals before they claim I'm too "old" ;-)
Got mine and my email came right away :)
does the code need to say earrings or "earrings". Cause neither is working for me. Any help????
earrings worked for me, but no confirm. email, bummer! I guess us 40ish girls are out too :-)
Oh...yeah...I'm over 29...they didnt have a spot to put your birthdate - but, I dont want just one earring :) I think I'd look a bit silly!
Yay! Just did it and got my confirmation immediately. I used the code earrings and it worked fine. FYI, it does say at the bottom of the form that you'll receive 'one free PAIR of earrings' so it shouldn't be just one!
Is anyone over 29 that has gotten an email?
yes all- it does say on the bottom- one free pair of earrings- I'm sure we'll get 2 lol!
Well, it doesn't seem to work for me...I just turned 30 in october. I think I'm gonna give up on this one.
I was going to order some stuff from their website, but my shipping came out to more than I was purchasing. Oh well... I will pass on that too.
I think it does have to do with the age. Not sure how they know it. I entered my name for 2 diff. email addresses and got nothing. I entered my daughter's name and it came through in the email immediately. I sometimes request things for her, she's 22.
I am 29 and still have not gotten an e-mail
It does'nt ask for the age/birth date anywhere on the form, but it does say that it is for a certain age group
No email here either! :(
No email yet here either, probably been about 30 min now
Thanks! If I only get one earring (site says "free earring, one per person") maybe I can hook up with another blog reader and we'll have a pair!
Thanks so much!
I signed up this morning and still NO email. I am 29 and thought I would still qualify. Apparantly it is between 13 and 29 which would mean only those 14-28. So, I changed my account info on my other email address making me 27 and it instantly sent me a confirmation email with the link to click on. Weird!! Anyways, ladies who still don't have a confirmation email, try changing your age and do it again.
I feel guilty.....I didn't realize there was an age restriction. I am in my 40's. oops. But the verification came and the order seems to have gone through....we'll see.
where do you put your age. i signed up, didn't see anywhere to put an age, but i haven't received a confirmation email. am i missing something?
Darn them for this! Just turned 30 in August!
I'm 25 and didn't receive an email.
No email for me either. This is a bit concerning, how are they able to verify our ages? What source are they using to get that info. from?
I've never received an email :(
Link seems to be broken. Anyone else having this problem?
Hmm. Not sure what happened with mine. I clicked on the link and got a site advisor from McAfee so I didn't go any further :(
What is wrong with being 40? :(
Link is broken for me too!
im 25 and it worked for me. hmmm maybe thats the cut off?
Link is broken for me too=/
I am 23 and still have not received an email. Have hope ladies, I don't think the secret is out about your ages ;)
it says "enter the promo code earrings in the form to receive your free PAIR of earrings" in the fine print on the bottom of the page. I hope that makes everyone feel better about it not just being one earring :)
Says "Cannot find server".
how are they going to know how old you are anyways???
But I haven't gotten my email and I'm 26, and I signed my sister up and she hasn't gotten the email either. I did notice when I submitted the form, a small box came up on the bottom left side of the screen and I couldn't see everything that it said, just something about registration or something but don't really know...its like the box was cut off.
i am so frustrated with all these sites right now! They all keep crashing....i am supposed to be cleaning for thanksgiving but instead i am trying to get my free things! ok i really dont need the earings but i do need the photobook cause they are my big gifts for family :P i hope they get better. they need some better IT people!! ok thanks for the vent! Happy turkey! Gobble Gobble!
Wonderful, thank you so much~
i just signed up and didn't have to put an age!
got a email confirmation within seconds!
verified and it said "free earrings, one per person, once all distributed there will be no substitutions"
I think it is funny that it kept saying earring. Not earring "s" so we will see.
i just keep getting a connection timeout, the page doesn't ever load! sad :(
I got it to go through 9:35am Pacific and it did send me the email. I filled it out for my 17 year old daughter. We'll just have to see!
SUcks i just turned 30. I feel old.... uhg
I just called them and they said they could be getting an overload of e-mails but I should still be able to recieve the earings eventhough I may not get an e-mail. I hope the guy is right!
never got my email....
Is there supposed to be an age limit? I'm 32 and got an email right away. I clicked on the verification and it said it would be processed soon.
The only thing I'm not sure about is how I will know when it is processed. Will they send another email?
I'm only 25 and didn't get an email, so maybe just a funny coincidence?
Just tried it and it said they were out of the free earrings. Looks like the deal is dead.
It said the offer was no longer avaliable.
So sad I wasn't fast enough. All out of earrings!

the prices on these items arent that bad! if you are worried about shipping, there is a $10 gift card code if u sign up for their newsletter. this link can be found on their home page on the lower right hand corner!!
I think that the offer is dead. It said this when I hit the "Great your free earring" button:

darn, I missed out :(
it's ok.
well Im over 29 and I got the email, confirmed, and said on the way.
Laughing at whoever posted this, too funny!!
"I'm gonna go sit in my rocking chair and put on my clip-on style faux pearls with other fellow 30 somethings."
I was going to get some boots for $10 with the $10 gift card coded emailed, but the shipping was $14...No way am I paying over the price of the item for shipping!
darn....worked too much...missed out on this! Bummer and good job others!
LOL...Hooray for the 30 somethings here. I am turning 31 in 6 weeks and I got my e-mail right away. Lol. I also got myself a cute top at Sears with the $10 off coupons found in the Seventeen magazine. Hey, 30 is the new 20.
Dead Deal. Bummer.
it says it is temporarily unavailable so maybe they will bring it back for those of us who are late in getting in on the deal. (fingers crossed)
I am 27 and never got my email.
