you did a PM? How did you feel about it? Was it what you expected or over rated? Did you feel good after or cheap? Did you enjoy it or do you regret it?

My pricematching viriginity/dignity is still intact. :cry:
However, I did invoke price protection starting at 25, so I've beaten around the bush a little, so to speak. :lol:

I took the manager's merchandise for nothing and then shagged his daughter.

Never. I tried once with a laptop Staples has on their shelf listed a few hundred higher than a competitor but when the sales guy went to give me the price match he said it was reduced in the computer system to the same price I was trying to price match with.
Oh well, maybe next time.

I was 40-something. It felt weird but I really did want to buy the item and would have gone to FS or wherever it was cheaper and bought it. It was before Staples came out with their official competitor list.
After I had bought it (Logitech wingman cordless gamepad) it felt good knowing I had saved like $20.

Still a virgin. I fear that once I experience it for the first time, I might have to do it over and over again. :lol:

too many people desire it and jump into it without knowing how to do it or handle it. they need to realize the person across them has feelings tooand they need to attend to them too..
for those who are planning on taking the big step.. please come prepared and know the basics you needto a successful first time experience

I was 21..it was 3 years ago, and I remember it like yesterday. I got addicted to it right away. Eventually, I had to quit for health reasons (to maintain my sanity) and for financial reasons (to protect my wallet). It was tough to quit, and every now and then, I still crave a good ol' fashioned pm.

I assume you mean in public. I was 7 and on my way home from seeing the Leafs. I had to go really bad. So dad took me to a local resturant and I went by myself. I was pretty scared as the place wasn't nice like at school. There was a urinal and a stall. I went in the stall and it was gross. But I had to go really bad. So slipped off my pants, hopped up on the seat and let it rip. It was really stinky, but I felt much better. Washed my hands and all was good.
How did I feel? Well, anxious at first, but relieved afterwards.
Over rated? Ummm... I'd never talked to anyone before my first one.
Cheap? Ummm, well, it's not like I slipped under the door.
But, overall, yeah, I enjoyed it.

Pricematched Futureshop against Futureshop ;) They had a customer appreciation sale with 15% off toner. The price online was 15% off, so I pricematched that in store and got another 15% off for the sale. It wasn't until later that night that I realised what had happened, after I figured out that the price online was exactly 15% off the regular price!

Regret it cause I didn't use PROTECTION.
Warning for everyone.
I was innocent and unaware.
STAPLES gave me a STD.
