Opened my great mail and the SWISS COLONY catalog -also website - tells me my account is now open! FYI - no I did not apply for a Swiss Colony account! It says: Pay NO MONEY DOWN! Make your first payment in Feb, 2002 (This benefit is only for PREFERRED CUSTOMERS...like you!) Monthly payments can be as low as $15 a month. You can charge up to $600 and pay only $30 a month. Enjoy the convenience of your CHOOSE 'N CHARGE credit plan, and quality gifts from The Swiss Colony. Your account # xxxx xxxx xx. I flipped over the cardletter , no terms included other than they had pulled me in advance from a credit agency. I guess the terms come with the catalog. Well, I wish this one was from Centurion Bank or Citibank - but the trending is definite - I am getting more and more of these things. TU is best - I am not sure what they pull. You can buy a LOT of cheese baskets for $600. But I cannot make this decision right now - but I do have an urge for a swiss cheese sandwich. Hmmmm... later - yodelaydeewhooo arf - dogman
Figi's is kind of like Swiss Colony. They have these torte desserts, candy, sausage, and other food stuff.
I have been dealing with swiss colony now for about 5 years and they do NOT report..However i send about 60% of people on my list this and pay in febuary.,So it still works out good..My limit is at 2500
WOW!!! I think I received a fruitcake from Swiss Colony as a Christmas bonus years ago-1991 (the women received a fruitcake; the men received a bottle of scotch). It's probably in the still in the local landfill completely intact. (What is the half-life of fruitcake?) Just think, you could use your new Swiss Colony credit line to send fruitcakes to all your friends this holiday season!
Dogman.. I died laughing when I reading through the post.. !! All I could think was...NO HE DIDN'T JUST POST THIS.........LOL...!!! Your are sooooo crazy...LOL...!!!!!
Figis Huh? We could put our accounts together and have an eating frenzy - and we don't pay til later LOL! dogman
Ridng the trail.... completely - but the fact that you were a hooter girl in college tells me you probably have a great pair of ...... hooters! Just to amuse you, even though I am single, good-looking, humorous AND live in San Francisco, I still can't make a FIRM commitment to only ride the trail one way! arooooo! hehehe arf - dogman
A Couple of comments.... OK - I have to - "But I don't have a large enough credit line to serve all the fruitcakes in this town...." Curiouser - very nice "landfill comment!" We should dig them up and send to to Bin Laden! Screw anthrax - you're talking about a FOOD ITEM that stops people's digestive systems after one slice! paw paw scratch grin - dogman
Hi MG---- I can be pretty amusing after a pop or two or whatever! I never know whether to hooter and holler, or eat fruitcake..... thank you, thank you - doggin dogman
They are free with certain orders - I see it on their website. Merry Christ-mouse - geez how much more cuteness can one take? grrrr - arf - dogman
Marci, I actually did sue the law firm I worked for (not for the fruitcake, should have though--"intentional infliction of gastric distress" isn't that a cause of action?). The judgment paid for grad school. The clue for why I sued is in my previous post in this thread.
I like Johnny Carson's theory - that there is really only one fruitcake, and it gets passed around all over the earth.
