It Rocks!! I just bought 3 of the Microsuede jackets for only $10 each!! I think my original one was close to $50...for one!


I don't know the original Pashmina costs, but I bought 2 turquise and 2 black for $5 each! A Red Apron for $5(was $12 or $15). And, I also purchased 2 legacy index wallets for only $5 each!!

The jackets and one shaw are for me. The rest will be for some Super-Sweet sales or recruiting incentives for my team (male and female)!

Wahoo!! Quit reading this and start shopping!!
 
I'm trying to order jackets and they are coming up $59.95 each, UGH!!!

Red shows $10.00 but chocolate is ringing up $29.95 each, anyone else having this issue??

Yes, that happened for me too. Decided just to order the red, didn't want to lose out on the other deals.
 
I ordered a Chocolate about 30 minutes ago for $10???
 
Does anyone know the size of the pink and brown diaper bag that is listed for $5? I am a teacher - would it be big enough to use as a tote for work?
 
Wonder if I submit and call them in AM as customer service is closed if I'll get sale price??? No matter what size or whatever I put in, Chocolate is ringing up $29.95

UGH

It is doing the same for me too. I am just going to get the honey
 
So tempting...
 
I ordered the chocolate jacket, plus the sweater set, and 2 sets of the Gotta Have It stickers, and 5 Mini Jotters to use as small gifts for achievements in my cluster. :)
 
hehe i couldnt' resist the sale...i got a tshirt and a hooded jacket...i figured these are two items that i wear in the fall all the time so might as well make them PC logowear!!!
 
I've got upcoming booth where depending on weather I could be sweating my behind off or freezing it off, so I was thrilled to get a few different things I can wear.

Hiding Credit card statment from hubby:o
 
Wow! Thanks for sharing that! I got the Chocolate jacket also for $10!! I've been wanting that for a year but wouldn't pay the $50 for it. Of course, I bought two casual jackets/fleece at conference...figures. :D THis will be my DRESSY jacket. (I live in NC...so I can wear jackets a long time here).I also got the light blue cardigan and matching sweater - $10 each, plus a white polo (I like to wear those to my shows). I'll get the new Dots shirt NEXT time...gotta get a few more shows before I can spend more $$$. I picked up a couple youth T's for my kids also, and went ahead to get the Making Strides T-shirt (not on sale) so I can wear it to the gym (it has logo on the BACK- so they can see me on the elliptical or treadmill ;)) But I got 8 items (all but 1, was clothing) and only spent $70!! I would have spent that on the jacket and one shirt alone before!I'm so happy :D

Don't you just Love an amazing sale?!! I'm almost giddy! I wonder if this is what runners get when they talk about runner's high? I think I have a "shoppers's high" right now! :)

I don't know why the chocolate jacket is showing $29. I double checked and mine was $10. I plan on wearing these all Fall/Winter and Spring! Ten Bucks! Thanks to my daughter going to Catholic high school...$$ I have been forced into a strict budget...which bites. I am sooooo happy!!
 
Still tempted, I made a shopping cart with three shirts for $40, just over $50 with tax and shipping...
 
THANK YOU!!! I have been wanting that jacket for EVER and am too cheap to buy it!! I couldn't pass up $10!! YEA!!!

Oh - just do it! When are you ever going to get these prices from Merrill again?

It's the first time I've ever seen these kind of prices from them - even clearance prices!

This bag would be great for a tote- it DOES come with a changing pad- just pull it out. I bought two last year, and throw them in the washing machine when needed. its more the size of a "beach bag" than a hand tote bag. It has great covered handles and I have pushed its limits with all of the stuff we throw in there!!! :) hope this helps !
 
WAHOOOOOOO!!! I have wanted the red one for ever, so glad today is pay day!

Are there lots of pockets in the diaper bag/tote?
 
Ok, had NO idea this was going on today, clearly I missed that part of the CN or where ever this was annouced! Thank goodness for CS, but you guys made me spend $$ lol!I got 7 jotters, the pink cable knit sweater (I've been wanting it for a year now- $15!!!), two travel document holders for me and DH, and the making strides fleece that I was going to get anyway. $81- yikes! Oh well, like someone else said, good thing today was a payday! :)
 
I'm confused ... when I look at the site, it says it is $10 but if I put a chocolate one in my cart it is $29.95!Does anybody know if the stitching on it is a different color than the shirt, or if they run large?I'm going to shoot myself in the morning for saying this, but I'm holding off for a little while. Yes, it is payday (it was 10 days ago for me) but Friday is when they hit my account for the PWS and I just put brakes on my car. Besides, $6.50 shipping for one item? I'm going to drop a line to my recruiter and see if she wants one. If she does ... then we can split the shipping and it will be only $14 for each of us. I think I can find that much lurking in my account.
 
Ya'll are nuthin' but trouble....:::mutter mutter::::
:::grumble grumble::::
my wallet hurts :P
 
Does anybody know if you have to pay with Merrill stuff with your PC debit card?Just remembered my recruiter is PREGGO so now is not the best time for apparel shopping ... I'm THIS CLOSE to snagging the red jacket ... I NEED a jacket ... my winter coat does not zip!
 
no you do not need to pay with PC Debit...in fact I don't remember it even giving me that option. It only asks for the major cards - I used a Visa (debit) but it goes to my own Credit Union, not PC.

I forgot to order a sweatshirt I wanted. Going to call tomorrow and see if they can add to my order b/c I have room left on the shipping. *crossing my fingers*
 
i got the pink diaper bag and used as a tote---lots of storage! The lettering wore off after about 6 months! But so many compliments! GET IT!!! came with a changing pad also. Worth the money!

I changed colors to the honey adn the $10 took. I can 'suffer' with the honey for $10! I ordered a 3X and know it will be big but their stuff seems to run small.
 
so $64 later I bought the microsuede jacket, the v-neck stretch jersey shirt, travel doc. holder, white hoodie, and white polo. :) I'm happy!! Thanks yall!
 
okay so i would really like to get the sweater but i am not sure what size...first off when it says chest width, what exactly am i measuring, same with shoulder width...am i measuring all the way around or just one side to the other side???
 
I really want to order some logo wear...I can't believe the prices! The only thing that is holding me back is the sizing...I know from NC 2008, I tried on some things at the Merrill booth and they ran SOOO small. I usually wear a 16/18 and would have needed anything from an XL to 3X depending on the shirt... I hate ordering clothes without trying them on first.
