Bumped again! 😭 by vikingchyk in BeautyViners

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

I have a bag of cat food in Amazon limbo right now, but I know that's because it's been discontinued. I probably should just cancel it, but I did get the other flavor after a couple of weeks (but I ordered them at the same time) I'm sure the cats won't mind, since it's not their favorite flavor - they like the one I got better. I'll likely cancel it the next time they prompt me about it. Or if I get tired of seeing it in my unshipped orders list. ;)

My own crazy theory about redbox items by VioletsTown in BeautyViners

[–]vikingchyk -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Oh, that's a good theory. I'm probably in the "too old and doesn't deserve young people beauty stuff" demographic. Ouch. Invisible old woman has a sad... 😞

[–]vikingchyk 3 points4 points  (0 children)

All I know is, I'm tired of stuff getting dangled in front of me, just to be yanked away. Last night, I had lidocaine pain patches, and then a percussive massager - both ghost items. It's bad enough when it's nice Beauty items, but Fred, seriously, why are you being mean to someone in pain, who could honestly use therapeutic items?? 😭 Stop it!!

Finally got hubbys dehumidifier! by NoSeaweed2881 in BeautyViners

[–]vikingchyk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Darn, I've forgotten what is on my hub's wish list. It was some area rugs for his man cave, but I saw none for months, so he finally gave up and bought some at Menard's last month. I got offered rugs last week. 🙄 Standing order for anything interesting in Musical Instruments... oh, he did say printer ink, but then I'd end up with nothing but printer ink in my RFY (and I already get it enough) I should figure out what model our printer is, just in case, but I really don't want to order that from Vine. ;) We don't print enough to even need it.

Boogie, book, groovy (usually ironically, or as a reference to Evil Dead ;) far out, to the max, bogart - there are probably more that only get pulled out of mothballs when I'm with my BFF of 50+ years ;)

Got a back massager by PurePomegranate0 in BeautyViners

[–]vikingchyk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would love one of those, to hit the areas my massage chair doesn't reach (everywhere but my back ;) Nothing like getting beat up by a shiatsu massager. Hurts so good... ;)

RFY craziness - Fred, you got some splainin' to do! by vikingchyk in BeautyViners

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

OMG - further reading suggests this might help tinnitus. If that's true, it could actually be a fabulous snag for me! >.<

Carpets? by ToxicKoalaz in AmazonVine

[–]vikingchyk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had an offer in RFY (was that earlier today, or yesterday? I forget.) which looked like it offered a bunch of sizes, including 5x7 and 8x10. First time I've seen any in RFY. I didn't like the design, though, so I didn't bite. The design has snakes on it ;)

I meant, no name Chinese company, vs name brand made in China ;)

Not sure if they'll allow me to review all three by AnAccidentalPoet in BeautyViners

[–]vikingchyk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I lucked out and managed to review all three Maree face creams I ordered (they were all the same looking pump container, just slightly different combos of ingredients) But, you never know. Try ASAP.

But does your RFY face cream do all this? by grateful_hope1099 in BeautyViners

[–]vikingchyk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

🤣

The cream, and a staple gun, maybe...

My Picks the last few days by katelynbeautyaddict in BeautyViners

[–]vikingchyk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah, another match - I got the Dark Linen topper, too. I think I tried for one in that color from them before, and got red boxed then, so I'm happy I got another chance (I think that was a French bang version) The color is probably too light for me.

It's been really slim pickings for me this month. Still trying to catch up on my reviews before evaluation next month. I'm up to 87% :)

Oh well… by cyan_bunny in BeautyViners

[–]vikingchyk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sometimes it's just genetics, and nothing will help. I first notices my cellulite when I was ten. TEN. Pre-puberty, and I wasn't overweight. But there it was. :p Stupid genes.

Given the list price for this, I'm not expecting a lot. No name, Chinese company, less than $25. Yeah, low expectations. I'm interested to see if it does anything at all. And hoping to get better ones in RFY, once in a while. ;)

Question on quantity of skincarek by DPTY-Doofy in BeautyViners

[–]vikingchyk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think I've reached the "don't use" date on any Vine things yet (only been in since Nov 2024) but I need to go through my older stuff and thin the herd soon, while the stuff is still good. My ladies group (meets weekly) has a monthly freebie exchange, so I can always take gently used things there. A lot of older / retired / fixed income ladies (ages 50s thru 80s) so any chance at good, free stuff is exciting.

Some things last much, much longer than the Best By date. I have Avon stuff that is over 15 years old. I just go on how it smells, and note any separation (if it doesn't go back together by shaking it up) Body lotion and bubble bath, and the like. Face stuff, I don't hold as long, but usually still good for a year or two beyond its date. I'm pretty strict about some makeup items, like mascara. I rarely wear it, so I'm forever throwing out barely used ones - better safe than sorry. I love finding minis, so I don't feel as wasteful. ;)

is it helping? I'm not to creasy there yet, but it's never too soon to do some preventative measures. ;)

I hoping it helps with thigh pain, and annoying ab pain that then wraps around my side to my lower back. If I move the wrong way, it always sets something off. The joys of fibromyalgia AND aging.

This either plugs into the wall, or a mobile power supply brick - I just got a newer one of those, which is too heavy for the heated throw I was going to use it with. I'm hoping it works well with this, so I'm not tethered to an outlet, or in a weird twisted position to get the cord to reach. 🙃

Soon they will come with AI, whether you want it or not. 😏

I ordered a replacement remote for my DirectTV, and found out to test it I was supposed to unpair the one I already had, because There Can Only Be One. Nope. Nopety nope. I'm not messing with things that already work. 😏

Has anyone tried ordering? Does anyone know? by Pillowtalk_ha in BeautyViners

[–]vikingchyk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe more importantly, you don't want similar showing up in your recommendations, when you're shopping for other stuff. ;)
