Crap!
That was my reaction to learning that I had spent enough money at Best Buy to qualify for their Premier Silver status on their Reward Zone program. Crap.
I have never even been close to hitting the Premier Silver program before. This made me feel horrible. I started obsessing over the money I WASTED at Best Buy. Pulling out my check book, I thought about how the bottom line could be fatter had I not spent enough money at Best Buy to qualify for their stupid, poopy-headed reward zone program! (yes, the insults became 2nd grade)
Sitting down at my laptop, I… realized I bought this laptop AT Best Buy. A MacBook Pro purchased in their little Apple Store kiosk.
I didn’t buy a bunch of crap (well, I did) that put me into the Silver tier – I bought this laptop that put me into the Silver tier!
This gave me a whole new perspective! I didn’t waste a ton of money – I Ninja’d my way into a better deal by purchasing my laptop there! For the whole rest of the year, I’ll get $10 certificates faster cuz every new crap thing I buy gets me more points! I also get access to free shit, special offers and support.
I have totally spoofed their system! I’m on top! I win!
(I totally didn’t. I’m really not. I haven’t, not really, cuz I did still buy a ton of CRAP from them…)
Woo hoo!
(Crap!)
