Now I Have New Accessories.

I spent my instant gift cards on a new computer only to realize too late I hadn't done so through the InstaGC offer. As it happened, the computer never shipped so I cancelled the order and bought a new one elsewhere. But new computers need new accessories, and my Amazon gift cards and that offer are still there.

So I bought a bigger monitor, new speakers, plus a solid state drive for faster booting. And then some.

$20 Loss Retraction

My ability to get an amazon gift card for free is unimpeded— the $1,000 order was never shipped so I cancelled it and it is now refunded.

So Much For $20

If you want to earn gift cards from your Amazon purchases, InstaGC is the only place you can earn them. Unfortunately, that only works if you actually remember to click the link first.

I didn't.

For a $1,000 purchase.

Costing me $20.

I hope there's some way to fix that.
