Fulfilled the freeipods.com thingie

The referrals have been cleared.  The ipod has been ordered.  (I went for the wee silver one.)  Supposedly processing takes 3-5 days and I think then it gets shipped.  I guess I'll see then whether this really does work.

In the meantime, [livejournal.com profile] sarcasticval is plagued by people who promise to do her referral, but then sign up and never complete it.  Valid choice, but annoying, so hey!  If you still want to try this, do her a favor and go here.  If you don't really want to go for the ipod yourself but feel especially generous, you could always just sign up for ancestry.com and cancel shortly thereafter to help her out.

*wry* Would you mind doing mine? I think I have 2 and need 3 more...

I'd offer to exchange referrals, but seeing as you already got all you need...

I've been stuck at 3 needing two for months now. :/

What's your referral?

And are you willing to trade? (see above for mine)

Actually, I just discovered that two people did finish mine off for me. But I might be inclined to join ancestry.com to help out.

The friend who finished mine had already signed up and fulfilled the requirement on her own, so it is possible to help others out like this and not get booted for it.

I just tried 4 times to sign up for Blockbuster [as I'd do that anyway] but it keeps 404ing me.

Oh, man. Your icon...those eyes...reminds me of when my kitty wanted food and was doing her best so convince me that she was sad and starving and really really deserved it. Hee.

Good luck with the iPod goodness.

No one wants will do my referrals. *weeps* I shall never get an iPod.

I've got people signed up but lots of incompletes, alas. And it's just enough that I don't feel like I can beg for more yet...

No kidding. I'm trying the pepsi contest where they're giving away an ipod every hour until Christmas based on the entries for only that hour. Knowing my luck, I won't win, but its worth a try.
