IMPORTANT info for clemwatchers

**Michelle** · 11-16-2005, 12:26 PM

This was part of an email I received this morning:

3) Each Clemwatch report must contain information on at least three
stores that you have visited. Not two, not one, but three. Or it will not
be considered a comlete report, and you will not receive a box of
Clementines.

Unless I drive to 2 more stores, 20 min away, I won't have the information to get in on this round of clementines

Could you call the stores and ask the info? do you have a friend going to town that could go for you? You could pay her in clemintines.

I got the same e mail and had trouble getting in the site today. I had sent off report severeal days ago but wanted to update it. Hope you can get the info somehow.

I already sent in my report and I'm not going to edit it. If they accept it, they accept it. If they don't, oh well. I did report on 3 stores, but 2 of them are the same chain just different locations (in different local towns). I did that 2 years ago when I was a participant with no problems. Now it seems the rules have gotten quite strict so it'll be interesting to see if they are okay with that.

I did the same with the Hannaford chain (one in this town, and one 2 towns over). I am going to do a drive by the other grocery store after I pick up the kids. If I don't get the clementines, oh well. I'll just try again next time

Well as I said in the other thread, none of the stores I went to had them. So besides putting the store name and "none available" from the drop down box, there wasn't much filling out to do. I'm not driving all over creation looking for these things. lol I could buy a box with the gas money I'd spend.

Guess we'll just have to wait and see if we get them. For those who have gotten them before, how long does it normally take for you to receive them after the deadline is over for filling out the form?

What in the world are you ladies talking about????
I am curious?

**QuilterMom** · 11-17-2005, 10:16 AM

Jellybeanz - This just came in an email this morning........

As promised, we will be sending out your boxes of Darling Clementines

Kim, I got that e-mail, too.

I'm excited!! I'm going to send some to family in OK that when they were here last January...well, the kids thought they were the greatest thing since sliced bread.

They live "off the grid" and don't have a large budget for store-bought food. They'll like them.

Does anyone remember....were these seedless??

Anyway, I had 2 stores that didn't have them & one that I couldn't get a price & mine went thru!! Yippee!!

I got that email too. I am wondering if they meant that they would send out the clementines to those who qualified (in other words it was a blanket email to everyone), or if they sent that to those who qualified and who are definitely getting them?

**mom22grls** · 11-17-2005, 10:29 AM

It looks like a blanket letter, but I think it'd mean we *did* qualify.

I also got one yesterday that said from now on, to be sure to specify which country of origin........was I the only one to get that? I didn't put a country down....I forgot to do it.

**Dedlered** · 11-17-2005, 10:36 AM

No, I got it too and I think that it means going forward.

**QuilterMom** · 11-17-2005, 11:04 AM

Jamee - I got the country of origin thing, too. I think these are just all blanket letters they're sending out. I'm waiting until next Wed. night to see if ours actually come for this round.

**Kimberlina** · 11-17-2005, 11:05 AM

I got the country of origin e-mail, too, and I agree with Laura- I think it is meant to be from now on. They didn't ask for it before, they didn't have a section fo it before, so they didn't get it before.

Thank goodness for my little voice memo thing on my cell phone, because I'm sure I won't remember to take a pen and paper, and I sure won't be able to keep all the details straight now! LOL
