Do you mean you submitted your 2nd show on the 15th (last day of promotion)? Because you had to hold and submit two shows between the 1st and 15th to earn the bag.

Yeah, on the 15th . . . i forgot when the promotion ran from. But my 2nd show was turned in on the last day.
 
Still waiting in Ohio...
 
Still waiting in MD also....
 
Got mine today so maybe it isn't going to be much longer! Love all the pockets!!!
 
Submitted my 2nd show on the 14th. Still nothing here in Ohio either:(
 
Still waiting on mine to come. I'm bummed
 
Mail just came, i love it... I'm so excited
 
I emailed the solutions center yesterday, they replied today to let me know mine had shipped and gave me the FedEx Smart Post tracking #! I should get mine Monday, I'm in MA! WOOHOO!
 
Finally received mine yesterday (June 25). :(
 
I got mine this morning!! Yeah!!
 
I TOTALLY understand that they received an overabundance of orders submitted later in the period, and way more than they expected, so the bags were on backorder. And I did appreciate the extra HWC pins, however, I think communication on this issue wasn't handled very well!

They should have been updating on the status in the PC Newswire or something!
 
got mine today in Chicago
 
Mine came today. It is cute, cute, cute!!
 
I received mine yesterday as well. Already transferring my stuff into it today. Love it!
 
I just got home from a show and it's here!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am so excited!!!!
 
Finally, finally, finally, GOT IT TODAY!!!! It's very cute and I think will hold up better than the catalog tote that I have been using for a purse. Pockets fit the skinny wed. reg. brochure and the mini catties perfectly. Then I can have my notepad, pen, and biz cards in a 3rd pocket; any ideas on other necessities to have with you always?Yeah, I am so happy now!!
 
Got mine today---Does yours have an open seam in the bottom:confused:---meaning the edge is finished in the bottom on the left, but has a small gap between the seam that goes to the egde of the side--so I can see the cardboard support a little. Would you complain? Honestly, it was free & who knows how long a replacement would take, and it's still usuable....

Barb,

Yes, mine is open on the left as well. It seems extremely difficult to take out, but I wonder if it is open so we can attempt to take it out to wash it? :confused:
 
If you got yours in Cali today hopefully I will get mine tomorrow.
 
Got mine yesterday. My daughter really likes it but I want to use it. I will have my mom sew on a snap or velcro to close it. I don't like that it is completely open (people are stealing more these days.)
 
Still waiting on mine!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:(

Mine doesn't have that. It sounds like it's not properly made. It wasn't free. It was an earned item you will pay tax on. Contact the HO.
 
Got mine today! I was so excited!
 
Got mine Friday!!!! SO excited, unpacked my other bag and packed it all into the new bag. Dh was lessed than thrilled when I was standing in front of the TV showing off my new purse. LOL I called on Wed and they said they were filling orders and I should get mine soon, but didn't say it was shipped. But like other posters said I live close to Chicago and get my stuff within a day or two of shipping. Hope the rest of you get yours soon, too.
