The Store.
 
Since my Big Big Big Big Brother win in the Accy Web bookies, my ackers are burning a hole in my pocket, ouch!

I bought myself a shiny red name, but seem unable to spend anymore. The only thing available seems to be the coloured user names, or am I being thick and doing something wrong???

Please help, rich doesn't necessarily = happy.;)

Re: The Store.
 
I'm doing loans at extortionate rates if you can't wait to save up for your coloured name.;)

Re: The Store.
 
Yeah it's Saturday.:(

Sorry you can't make it.

Tell you what, since you said in another thread you are such a good cook, I'll have meals on wheels everyday for a year, and the 2,000 ackers are yours.:)

I know where you live. I'm in church and I dont drive. We also usually eat between 9 and 10 so I reckon that by the time we (me and mo) have finished and I walk up to yours, it might just be a tad cold.

garinda 24-08-2005 02:22

Re: The Store.
 
In that case I can only let you have 1,500 ackers I'm afraid.

Something else I had forgotten. Maureen found out yesterday (23rd) she has type 2 diabeties. So food from now on is very low fat, no sugar, no salt. Does it still sound interesting. I am the other way where I am sodium deficient.(I need salt) I see trouble ahead.:confused:

garinda 24-08-2005 02:29

Re: The Store.
 
Problem solved-

Main course with salt.

Pudding, no salt.

Job's a good un.:)

[Sorry to hear about Maureen, give her my best.]

jpest1 24-08-2005 02:33

Re: The Store.
 
I will Gary. its not at the stage for needles yet just diet and intake.

Your solution still wont work. We dont eat pudding unless its steak but still no salt or sugar for her

garinda 24-08-2005 10:41

Re: The Store.
 
Back to the store.

I notice that the only thing with a buy sign is the coloured user names, next to the recent purchases.

I clicked recent purchases, and shortly after I bought mine Kippax bought his, [I know, I know, I'm a trend setter.]

The thing is, he got his coloured name with a 50% discount. How does that work, and did I miss the sale????:(

grannyclaret 24-08-2005 12:15

Re: The Store.
 
oh i keep looking at you100plus ackers ,and i am getting a real urge to knick them...............

Re: The Store.
 
It will be a long, long time before I earn enough to have a coloured name.......Chewy eats up most of what I earn in posts. Bring back the pre-revolution interest rates

slinky 24-08-2005 12:36

Re: The Store.
 
I am trying to save up at the moment. I have about 1,500 ackers. So it may take a while.
What colours can you get rindy??............I will save......I will save......I will save.......!!!!!!

I keep remembering to deposit my ackers now, as fora couple of weeks I didn't come on here due to family problems and someone (not mentioning any names TINKS) decided to take advantage and nick my ackers along with some other NICE people. I was once the richest member look where that got me.

garinda 24-08-2005 13:11

Re: The Store.
 
Lol, thanks Granny C, the banking I've been doing has become a bit slippy of late, but thanks to you I've made a nice big deposit.;)

Slinks, you type in the colour you would like, then it shows you it before you finally purchase it. I was going to get a pink one, but when I saw it it was a wishy washy windowlene colour, I plumbed for a nice shiny red one instead.:)

:signntme: GO ON BLAME THE WHITE GUY!!! :D


It is my duty to show sloppy bankers the error of the ways :w00t:


Anybody that wants their ackers back that I 'borrowed' may negotiate with me ........ ;)

Oh well, saving up will give me time to decide what colour I want. I'm thinking a nice purple colour but I wll decide when I get there I suppose.:D

garinda 24-08-2005 13:23

Re: The Store.
 
Exactly my ackers were gained through steady posts, banking and wise betting on a dead cert, unlike your sister.

I am like Florence Nightingale, she is like Dick Turpin in as thong!!!

Re: The Store.
 
I used to be a millionnaire under the old system, but it will be a long time before I can afford a shiny new name. I do bank my ackers, but I use them for kennel fees.:)

Re: The Store.
 
I still don't know how I can spend my ackers.:(

Can you only spend them on things that have 'buy' next to them in the store?

Please help as they really are burning a hole in my pocket now, and unless Mick films it for the gallery, it won't be funny.

Re: The Store.
 
Willow's question got a quick response, I know my question was hijacked by chatters, but l still don't know how the store works.:(

Can you only purchase things that say buy next to them? Is it just the colourd name?

Tinkerbelle 06-09-2005 17:05

Re: The Store.
 
I think it's the understanding of your question hun ... if I'm understanding you properly, you can purchase any of the items. It shows you how many ackers the item costs and how many are available for e.g



Quantity: 20 Gifts Send gifts to other forum members... Cost: 1020.00 -


Theres 20 of them (quantity) and to send one costs 1020 ackers


Does this help or not :confused:

No hun, but thank you for trying to answer my question.:)

I bought the coloured name because I had enough ackers for it, and I clicked on buy. I have enough ackers for other priced things now, but the only thing that says 'buy' is still the coloured names, even though it shows there is a quantity of them!!!

It can't just be me being thick, I bet other people would like it explained. I did a search and it came up with no answers.

Dazed and Confused.:(

you already have a coloured username.. it says BUY but it wont let you.. try it..

you have to take your ackers out of the bank and have them in yer pocket for them to be available to buy

BTW theres a reason a lot of stuff is priced so rediculously high :)

Thank you mate.

Told you I was probably being thick.

Now dare I withdraw my ackers to my pocket, before Tinks or Stag try to nick 'em?

Re: The Store.
 
A week before my name went gold, I used my ackers to purchase a red username.

Lovely, it was.

Now I've handed my AW awards in, to be replated before the next awards ceremony, I've gone back to green.

Fair enough, but I'm not even bold green, as I was before.

All very strange.

I hope worrying about this doesn't keep me awake tonight.:D
