I was really late on this...mostly due to my laziness, and ended up ordering a gift card yesterday afternoon online, hoping to use the Q3 credit. I figured gift cards would ship faster than actual merchandise, but maybe not. As of now, order has not shipped. So not sure if the charge(/credit) will post for Q3 or 4. If the credit posts in Oct, then will be a bummer but not the end of the world. I suppose I could have gone into the store (there's one down the street from me), but it is a bit of a PITA to get in/out of the mall, and so I try to avoid going there when possible. Also saw the post on the scolding people are supposedly getting in store now, so figure it is easier not to deal with that.
