I got one in mail for my dad, it’s a white post card, guess I’ll take it to store and try it, thought this was something I had to mail in first due to return addressed label attached, after looking closer it says for change of address. So I hope all need is this card, would be a nice change getting something instead of having to give something.
who do you contact if u haven’t received yours?
I emailed the claim administrator the vouchers are being mailed out next week. I don’t think that any of those people have received anything yet. That eggshell should not crack before being fully boiled
Received my $25.00. I used it at a washington state burlington to purchase 3 shirts. Cashier asked me for my phone number!! I laughed.
OK then where are the vouchers that can be redeemed for cash?
I received a $25 claim certificate today, and I never purchased a thing in California. I live 2,000 miles from there. How did I get one?
IDK how you got one but I wouldnt look a gift horse in the mouth lol.
If you don’t want it then I will be glad to take it
ill take it!
. My question is does the gift certificates deducted from the total which include the taxes. Or should it be deducted before the taxes is added? Thanks
taxes are included in the 25.00 purchase yes..
you can use someone else’s they don’t I’d and it says transferable on it so happy shopping if someone get one they don’t want I’ll take it
I got my $25 voucher and tried to use it today. Cashier claimed it had already been redeemed?!?! WT#=@? This has to be a SCAM! Now they my info twice and wasted my time!! :-(
My friend gave me her $25 certificate, can I able to use it? And do I need her or my I’.D. , because in back of the certificate it has her name on it..
When I used mine the other day they didnt even ask for ID.
Yes you can use it. I used the one that had my wife’s name on it. No question.
It looks phony to me people. I got one of those $25 cards without nay explanation, instructions or anything. Its a scam on part of lawyers, court, judge, etc. So, you take your card to the store if you can find it. And they give you a $25 credit on a $200 bathing suit. BFD, Thats the deal. Throw it away. It cost you $175 for a marked up $5 item.
Its not a scam, I got mine yesterday and I used it since I live about 4 blocks from the store. Its real…dont throw it away or give it to me lol…
P.S. Since when does Burlington sell 200.00 bathing suits?
its actally a real 25 dolar certificate,shoot ill take yours! lol
