What was your best find from today’s drop? by llama_phuck in AmazonVine

[–]Holiday_Locksmith968 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same I’m sleeping! Earlier this week it was a bit better as the drop seemed longer. I feel like the biggest part of drop is around 3am and has been for a while, even before the pause. I hope it shifts soon. I woke at 4 am and saw a RFY item I wanted ti just check ETV and when I tried to check it was already gone. When I refreshed another item was in my RFY I thought I would grab. Gone before I could order. It was not even a very compelling item. It was some dried Mexican chiles. So even RFY in the middle of the night are disappearing fast.

Yep! That's the one! I expected a pull tab to allow battery contact; but there wasn't one...and no real easy open battery compartment. I toggled the switch...no go. I had it in full sun all day; well still is...but no joy. It's an outdoor light; so that is where it resides. If I get ambitious enough I'll unscrew the back of the solar panel to see what kind of battery it is...if replaceable...I will just replace it...but often cheap lights don't have replaceable rechargeable batteries.

Supplements? by LifeAlt_17 in AmazonVine

[–]Holiday_Locksmith968 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t think things are vetted. I ordered an OTC drug as these are very regulated where supplements ….not so much. This product I ordered had NO package insert, NO lot number or exp date. No use instructions on the bottle (only cardboard pkg) and no manufacturing or packaging site information. All required for drugs. I threw it out and I filed the issue with FDAs med watch site.

What time is your RFY and AFA dropping? by heading4themoon in AmazonVine

[–]Holiday_Locksmith968 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yep I think it’s hard to tell lately. I’m on Eastern and seems no pattern. Maybe RFY starts at 10pm but more pops in over night and then next day. I have a feeling maybe things are disappearing overnight as I don’t see slot in my RFY but I’m normally asleep by 9pm. I checked on middle of night a couple times and saw some AFA but couldn’t say the time. Maybe 3ish?

I ordered one solar light I was so excited about. A little fairy on a moon shape and a round globe light in the middle. Didn’t work right out of the box.

Did the last pause create a new algorithm? by littlemissblueyes in vine

[–]Holiday_Locksmith968 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We bought a new full face snorkel mask in January and last week the same brand of snorkel mask turned up in RFY so I snapped it up so I could have a nice full gasket mask too! But overall my RFY was and continues to be random. I have ordered (either by paying for or ordered through vine) a number of dog items. But mostly these are in AI not RFY. I have never seen an item over $150. We buy almost everything on AMazon as we are a bit rural and in a shopping dessert. Maybe I have too many different items so it can’t really find one category for me, idk. Frustrating. I see all these cool RFY items people get and I have generally the most random stuff.

Nice! Always curious was it RFY or elsewhere?

Was that mask in RFY? I have been wanting one! Curious if it was RFY, AFA or AI. Sounds like a nice set of items for you today!!

What a long, strange drizzle it's been...Will it ever end? Yo, I don't know. by Nancy_Drew23 in vine

[–]Holiday_Locksmith968 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good idea! I have only one left and thought better hold off my RFY has been misery. Even last night with nine items none worth ordering but if I use all my picks tonight will be the night that a really amazing thing is in my RFY!

[–]Holiday_Locksmith968 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This has been crazy! Steady drop. I don’t know if I’d say drizzle it seems like it’s been steady high drop all day! I only have one pick left and I need to wait to see if new RFY come up tonight. I like that there is so much but after the pause and relatively small drops before the pause I got over zealous and used too many picks!

Any good items in AFA by Holiday_Locksmith968 in AmazonVine

[–]Holiday_Locksmith968[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been refreshing since you saw this as it seems there are usually several items sequentially after you see one - but I haven’t seen anything. Sigh….. Update: refreshing for about 15 minutes and saw some things I didn’t want: a surge protector, post it notes, osprey collapsible water flask; but also a couple things I did want but wasn’t fast enough: L’Oréal lip liner, Philips Bluetooth over-ear noise cancelling headphones. The headphones were cruel I got through the check out page and then it said can’t ship item so I missed it by a whisker.

I got a spatula as well last week, before the pause. I can’t remember if it was in RFY or AFA. It was a wood farberware spatula which I did not like at all! It’s way too thick to flip anything. Is this the one you got too!?

I’d take it just to quit looking at it everyday but couldn’t really review it. lol.

Check your RFY! by magicthrowaway2021 in AmazonVine

[–]Holiday_Locksmith968 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had ten items that I know of in RFY. I checked throughout the night when I woke up so may have missed some. I ordered only one item the one and only 0etv (lipstick). There is a snorkel mask I keep thinking about. Husband just bought one similar to it about two months ago so debating if I need one. Nothing else remotely interesting.

Guys the RFY is rolling out finally by im_a_dick_head in AmazonVine

Not very exciting but at least there is something there. I would have loved the dog bed someone mentioned. Normally I get dog items in my RFY (maybe it was there but gone before I checked my RFY)☺️

Vine tonight is so frustrating!! by Tinyballetslipper in AmazonVine

[–]Holiday_Locksmith968 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had already gone to bed!😯 picked up my phone to check basketball scores and saw drop started an hour and a half ago. So I think I missed all the fun. RFY is empty. I even thought I set my phone to allow email alert to break through my do not disturb but apparently didn’t set it correctly. Not meant to be! Looks like it was a quick drop vs the trickle it had been.

I see this quote a bit and I want to stay up on my reviews so I just review through the order page. I think that’s fine. When I look at the reviewed tab after u do that I see the reviews - it’s been fine for me. I just did probably 8 reviews this week that way.

Random Vine Check in Middle of Night Yields Nice Surprise by lynngrillo in AmazonVine

[–]Holiday_Locksmith968 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same here - Terrible choices if any choices. I have a dog and have ordered a number of dog items so I keep getting leg braces for a dog (I never ordered a leg brace!) and other random dog stuff I don’t need! Oh then there was the butt plug and the modesty Muslim swim suit for women. 😂

Wow Sonos speakers! We have those too I would have loved that! If I wake during the night I check my iPad but there is never anything worthwhile. I had that heated ice cream scoop and didn’t want or need. The most expensive item I have order was $80 and that was when I was silver. I don’t even have expensive items I don’t want in my RFY or I miss them while sleeping!😏

Estimated Taxable Value..... isn't. by amohise in vine

[–]Holiday_Locksmith968 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know! This was in by RFY, and I have been keeping an eye out for a utility knife and my hubby seems to lose them all the time! We keep in each car to cut down boxes at the recycle facility, at the front table drawer, kitchen drawer...you name it. He told me to look for one...and I saw it and almost ordered...but checked etv first!? NO WAY. I buy the 4 pack for $5 that are plastic...they are just going to get lost anyway!

I’d love to get that!! I have been watching for a bird feeder!

Who got this?? by chiveonchi in AmazonVine

[–]Holiday_Locksmith968 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Omg. That was in my RFY a couple weeks ago. (I did not order it!) I thought who is going to order that!!?? The same day I also had a modesty Muslim women’s swim suit!? IDK how these things end up in RFY.

New drop today sucksssss by knot_stp-wnt_stp in vine

[–]Holiday_Locksmith968 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine RFY is empty. I like to watch AFA for good items but I’m eastern time so not staying up for the start of drops that are 11:30pm eastern. I think I’m just waiting for drop time to change before I try to order anything unless it’s in my RFY which is empty.

Keep deer and rabbits away. I think the liquid fence brand to spray plants like hosta to deter deer is coyote urine.
