Still waiting from 12/26/99.

Still waiting on mine from 12/15/99 too.

20 Delta 500 mile certificates requested 12/6/99 and supposed to take 8 weeks to mail - around 1/31/00, were mailed out to me on 2/26/00. Not bad considering that Pudding Guy got all the existing certificates and more had to be printed.

Received 2 postcards in the mail today from Gage Marketing Group telling me that they are waiting for FF certificates from the airlines in response to the HC promotion.

I sent in my last 2 requests between Christmas and New Years Eve towards US Airways. The cards say shipment date of 03/31/2000.

Forgot to add this, but the card said that if you do not wish to wait and would like to cancel your order, the will promptly return your proofs of purchase equal to the amount you originally submitted.

While posting the original message, I wanted to add this last paragraph but FlyerTalk has added a new feature called "flood gate". You cannot post more than once in the last 60 seconds. Good Job Randy!

So they will return the UPC's.. Huh Then what? What are you supposed to do with 100 UPC's (be nice)... I know HC has a "another" promo going on involving the calender thing.( does that require cash register receipts?) Any advise if I want to request back 100 UPC's? Just curious!

Thanks,

Mike Mahoney

What is the new HC promo re: the "calendar" thing? I haven't heard of this one!

BTW--I'm still waiting from UPCs sent in between Christmans and New Years. I assume I have another month to wait.

For those who have called HC in hopes of getting some kind of answer concerning their missing frequent flyer certs and have been told the *only* person capable of sorting out the fulfillment house's mistakes,non-mailings(etc)is an entity named "Tammee" - a ray of hope. Tammee actually *does* exist!

A very pleasant female (name of "Tammee") called today - said she is in the process of looking into my missing 50 Delta certs and should have news for me by Friday!

Unfortunately - the bad news is HC is once again out of certs. Definitely out for Delta and I assume for the other airlines as well. According to Tammee, the next batch won't be going out until April 10th and when I mentioned I frequent this area, she said let everyone know that the certs will be going out 3rd class - so there's another 2 or 3 weeks of wait time.

Now that's not to say the certs might not arrive sooner than that, but at present, April 10th PLUS 3rd class mail equals (at best) a late April arrival date. (sigh....)

Thanks for the updates guys. I'm another "between Xmas and New Years" mailer that now knows it's not worth the effort to call and ask where my certificates are.

THANKS Tolax12 for the up to minute update on Healthy Choice and the mileage certificates..." Saved me the call".. I will be patient and see what appears in the mailbox..

Regards,

Mike Mahoney

I believe Tami is the Healthy Choice rep as I mailed my DL certs to her attention in Omaha, NB. After mailing, I received my AA certs within 2 weeks and two free product coupons! That was in January.

I'm still waiting for my late December mailing of AA certs! Haven't received a postcard or anything!

Regarding the postcards:

Tammee/Tami/Tammy said that "they"(Gage/HC??)have just begun the postcard process and I may yet receive one. Y'know,at the risk of seeming impatient, after nearly 20 weeks of waiting, I'd definitely prefer the certs.

snackyx,

Back in November, HC offered (through stores or by mail) a free 2000 calendar for proofs of purchase. In it are time-stamped coupons plus offers for stuff (health club coupon, event ticket discounts, etc.) which are free when you send in more UPCs (PLUS RECEIPTS, MIKE MAHONEY). I only plan to redeem for the Casio handheld color TV in November (80 UPCs), so if anyone is interested in taking an order form for something else, please e-mail me, and I'll let you know which ones I still have that haven't expired.

Hey guys...I just wanted to say hi. I have done some silly things to get free miles but the pudding scam is so funny. My friend sent me an email about this pudding scam and I had to come say I thought that was great!

By the way...am I the only girl on this page? How funny!

Have fun guys!
