I was talking to a cluster mate this morning and she said the same thing - I told her it isn't going to matter it is received by the time it says. Well I took a chance and called them anyway. To my luck my computer is a little faster time wise than home office and they show my show was received on the
14th! I was estatic! YEAH!!! The gal I was talking to said she believes it is based on the time that your show starts transmitting. I know it was before midnight when I started transmitting but showed 1200am when it showed success!
Thanks for all the hugs ladies!!! Now to just figure out the rest of how to go to conference (babysitter, etc for my twins).

pamperedpals said:That is awesome! Last night I sat down and figured out I was only $146 away from 1/2 conference registration. My DH was like no way, I have $140 in my pocket.
I was suprised to see how close I really was.
Congrat's to all who achieved the incentive!
Would it have been worth it to actually spend the $140 in your husband's pocket to get half off though? LOL Then you would have spent $240 on a $200 registration! ha ha
