Maybe I'm not seeing the point, what is the benefit of this? Especially if you have an Ink card. I'm assuming so you don't have to liquidate cards?

Still VALID???
The fine print says it was valid only until Jan 15th. Are people still able to use it?

less hassle trying to cash out cards...If you buy tons on ink it may raise some flags seeing the same transaction over and over

was in the Dallas area today and stopped by OM.

of course it was completely cleared out.

but, interestingly, while I was there 2 others came in for the exact sam-oo.

i could almost bet they were fellow FT'ers.^

OM I was at, said No it does not.

I did not ask, but someone else did while I was standing there.

LOL. I definitely met FTers and wanted to strike a convo but think they were leaving in a hurry, either that or I need to wear better deo next time. Saw the lady with Ink+ in hand as she grabbed a couple. I was planning on doing multi transactions but she said the checkout is only allowing a pair per person.

Sure wish there were more OM's in close proximity. That was the only one I passed today.

It's funny when we meet someone that's a likely FT'er.

Bought 38 this morning over 4 different CC's. OM employees clueless about the promo and 1 limit. I told them they were giving away money and dude checking me out said "cool" as we did 19 transactions.

Lesson learned. A few of us knew about it a full 36 hours before you opened your mouth. Now the blogs are parroting the info as well.

Some deals are meant to be shared with only friends and other trusted persons, not the masses.

And yes, my local OM is now out of stock too, and yet was reasonably well stocked after my visit yesterday. The poachers are now out hunting en mass...
