      Amex card promo will give you a credit for $60 spend at costco (same as membership cost).
      Or you can return your membership for a refund.

        Is it ok if I use it to buy something and refund it? They will not ask me to return the item?

        im gonna pay them, even if i was a girl i would be of the high standard, not gonna use myself to get free stuff.
        on a serious note i would pay up to $20 to whoever that would buy and deliver this to me. + the $30 of course!

    Ok so here is the deal…
    I have now had a few PM's from people wanting me to go grab these for them

    I am considering going on Saturday or Sunday and making a special trip to do so.
    I drive a 4WD so thankfully i can fit a few in my car.

    They are $30 each and i am based in Burwood.

    The suggestion was made that $20 additional could be paid to cover my transport charges etc.. i think this is pretty fair if you are located on my side of town.
    i am willing to Half this for those wanting to collect the item. (so $40 total if u collect)

    I don't really want to spend my Saturday driving all over Melbourne so please be sure to let me know where you are when u message me.
    I reserve the right to say no when you tell me where u live.

    There are two options
    A dark brown Bear or a light brown/cream dog (as pictured)

    I may not have much of a choice on the day i will grab what i can and will try and get preference. You will however need to be willing to accept what i can get, i dont want to go there and have people going.. oh i wanted the bear.. not the dog etc etc.. i will try and get what u ask for but if not you MUST be willing to accept what i can get for you regardless.

    I am forking out the money for these items up front so please do not tell me you want one if you plan to change your mind.
    Due to their size, i would like to delver them/have them collected ASAP , i work daytimes so evenings would suit.

    Please PM me the following if you want me to get you one.

    Name:
    Mobile ph number (i will text u)
    Preference
    Pick Up or Delivery
    Your Suburb

    I will chek the PM's around midday or Saturday and decide if its worth making a special trip for this purpose.
    Otherwise those i have already spoken too i will go when i have a chance.

    Cheers and Thanks
