I tried to place an order with Merrill today to take advantage of the 10% off the business cards. I had everything in my shopping cart and got as far as entering my cc information in. It told me there was a system error (or something like that). I logged back into Merrill and it told me my cart was empty. So I redid my order and for some reason it's showing 2 carts "In Use" I cannot access either of them. And Merrill is only open until 5 p.m. CST! Just closed 25 minutes ago. Anyone else having issues or have ran into this?
 
are you using firefox?
I get that message (I think its that) & have to use IE

I'm on Mac so I'm using Safari. I've never had a problem before. I'm going to clear my cookies and such and try again.

Whew, that worked. I was going to try it earlier but had to leave to pick up dinner. That's why I posted it here, thinking someone might have an option before I got back.
