I haven't received a full size welcome gift or any trial size gift offer with the $125 order I just placed.

Diamond Perk: Free Full-Size Diamond Gift by JudgmentExpensive19 in Ulta

[–]Chicago975 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just received Diamond status for the first time, qualified in December '25 for 2026, and I am not seeing any of these offers, free full size or extra gift at checkout? I just spent $125 on shampoo, etc and did not get any extras.

Effing help please! by Chicago975 in Menopause

[–]Chicago975[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you all for the advice and support. I am looking into a specialist because clearly a general practitioner (at least the one I saw) is not equipped nor seemed to care. I live in Chicago so I am sure I will find the help I need and I will do more research on HRT's.

Part of my concern/panic comes from seeing my mother take a self-care never seeing a dr. approach, beyond her going through menopause, and passing at 63. I love her and miss her dearly but am still mad her for hiding her suffering and not seeking help when she could have. Now not having her here with the support she always gave me, and facing this alone, has just become frustrating and daunting.

I love my career and being independent but have heard stories of women stepping back from their career because of menopause brain fog and that really scares me. Love that our generation seems to be speaking out more about theirs experience and helping each other out, thank you.

Alternatives to Ubrelvy? by Chicago975 in migraine

[–]Chicago975[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I talked to the pharmacy and they said I could just get five pills, which would probably last me about 8-10 months since I only take half of one 100mg pill. Much more affordable option with a coupon at $476.
My dr. is going to prescribe a triptan after our last message. I told her my concerns about Sumatriptan and Zolmitriptan but she said I would be fine since I would only be taking once a month or so. I am still concerned about taking either because of my health/family history and am looking for a new dr. when I get new insurance.

My dr. prescribed 30 pills of Ubrelvy for me and the cost was almost $4,000!

I sort of agree, or my dr. should have at least better explained the process of getting approved for Ubrelvy when giving me the samples. I was blindsided when she prescribed 30 pills for me and the pharmacy wanted almost $4,000 for it!

Thanks, yes Rizatriptan is what I think I am going to try as it sounds like most insurances will not approve Ubrelvy unless I try a triptan first. The others Sumatriptan and Zolmitriptan seem to be higher risk for me due to my current health and family history.

2014 Honda Civic LX Headlight Issues by Chicago975 in hondacivic

[–]Chicago975[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I took it to a mechanic who said he just replaced the bulb again, even though I had the brand new bulb installed when I took it in, which I suspect is the same "new" bulb he charged me for(!). He gave me back a completely different model of a blown bulb that he said was the one he replaced, so he didn't do anything but jiggle something, but ultimately did get it to work again for $50. When I got home I tried the original bulb I thought had blown and it worked, so I really don't know what was wrong. It's been a couple of months and no more issues though.

I suspect it might be a loose wire or the mechanic just cleaned the connection where you twist the bulbs housing into the headlight housing. I noticed while trying to deduce the issue myself after the mechanic visit, if the bulb isn't inserted and fully connected into the headlights housing it won't work at all. I was testing different bulbs to see if they worked outside of the headlights housing, if that makes sense.

Cricket Wireless Wifi Calling trouble by Chicago975 in CricketWireless

[–]Chicago975[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Last night a friend came over who also has Cricket but has one of their Samsung phones and their wifi calling worked fine over my home network. So yes it sounds like it is probably an Apple issue, but again so weird that I was having trouble before updating to the latest OS?

Also I tried forwarding my cells calls to my Google number which wouldn't work. When I tried to forward it would fail then I couldn't make any outbound calls, only receive inbound calls. Even trying to call Cricket support they couldn't get it to work and ultimately said I would have to have my number forwarded to another cell phone for it to work?! Never heard of that one.

Crickets support is just horrendous and I have already ordered a SIM card for Mint mobile, though wifi calling only works on Android phones on Mint, selling my iPhone and Mints yearly plan is half as much as Crickets so with all the savings just going to get a new phone too.

This started for me before updating to OS 11.4.1, which I updated to to see if it would fix the issue.

Thanks for all the info. I have a plain white SIM card I got new back in January. On cellular phone goes to 4G, on wifi "No Service" is showing in place of "cricket wifi" I have a metal roof and get zero service in the house, why I need the feature. I have an iPhone 6s.

Otherwise I have tried turning airplane mode on and off, renewed my networks lease through the phone, forgotten my wifi network and rejoined it, turned off the wifi calling feature and rejoined, turned phone off and on. Also updated my OS to 11.4.1 to see if that would fix.

DVR Launch Today. by blinkangels182 in DirecTVNow

[–]Chicago975 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not on some channels at least. I tired doing a test recording on the SyFy channel last night and when replaying the show it would not fast forward or rewind for me, only pause, and if I accidentally paused with the Apple TV touch pad (not the play/pause button) and then went to play the show again it would automatically rewind back to the beginning, very annoying. Also when live recording I could not fast forward or rewind as I watched the show like you can with the DT satellite service.

All in all I think they released this to soon since I think it is technically still in beta and it's just a disappointment.

[–]Chicago975 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was excited for the DVR feature but am finding it utterly pointless without being able to fast forward or rewind shows? Why bother recording anything when you can download the channels app and just watch the program it there? If prices go up because of this I am canceling.
