That's really funny - I hit my LYS last night, intending to just buy a bit and bump my total over $40 (I already had a couple small purchases). Instead, I wound up spending $74.37! It cracks me up that my receipt will be within $1 of the average...LOL.
ReplyDeleteI just received my package in the mail. Love the yarn booklet has wonderful patterns
ReplyDeleteThanks for offering this
Hmmm, I sent in my receipt approx 4 weeks ago, but as of yet, have not received my free items.
ReplyDeleteMy purchase was from a CEY listed yarn shop, it fell within the dates specified, & it exceeded purchase amount required. Purchase was for yarn only, so nothing fell into the exception catergories.
My understanding per comments on ravelry & in reading the above flyer, was that it did not have to be CEY yarns or books, just from a LYS who was a CEY retailer.
bschlot, sounds like you did everything right. We are steadily working through our very long list of participants, I apologize for the delay! You can email me directly at chelsea at classiceliteyarns dot com and I'll be happy to ensure that we received your information.
ReplyDeleteThanks!
Wheee, just received my goodies in the mail today!
ReplyDeleteThanks Chelsea for offering to help. It's like that old adage of someone looking over your shoulder to find what you think you've lost.
A huge thanks to CEY for being so generous with this promotion. The gifts are quite a source of inspiration.
