Vera Bradley fail

So, Vera Bradley sent me a coupon in the mail for my birthday. It was a good coupon too, 40% off any item. I love Vera, but a coupon makes it even sweeter! I also love a good deal, and I try to get the best deal wherever I go. So, I'm shopping the the VB website, I notice that for that day,(it seems they have different online sales every day) if you buy one sale item, you get another sale item at 50% off, PLUS I can use my 40% off coupon on top of that! So I'm super pumped, I start looking through all the sale items, they have some pretty good choices. I have this weird obsession with luggage/bags, I LOVE them, I don't travel near as often as I wish I did, but every time we go some where, I always *think* I need to buy more luggage...so most of the time I do :) But in my defense, I always look for good deals and buy things on sale or with a coupon. ANYWAYS, so I'm looking at all the luggage on the Vera website, I finally pick out what kind of bag I want, now to pick (only) one of the fabulous prints they have. Now I start to look for the other item I can get half off. Of course all my luggage has to match (totally weird about that also), but with sale patterns, they don't always have every pattern in every style. SO, I find a couple bags and a make up bag that all match with the pattern I like, I have it in my "cart". NOTE: While I am shopping, I am continually adding and subtracting things from my "cart", by doing this, it is giving me all the discounts I will get, and I can find the best deal this way. I can't even tell you how long (too long) I spent looking at this site and every possible scenario of things. I FINALLY make a decision on what I want, I go to my "cart", I notice that all of a sudden it is not giving me the BOGO 50% deal, and that is messing with my total price, and my birthday coupon. I'm like, what in the world is going on?? I try several other scenarios and bags, to see if it was only on certain priced items, and nothing is changing. After thinking about what the problem could be, I realize that is is 11:20 my time (central time)....the VB website is obviously NOT on central time, and wherever they are it must be after midnight, meaning that the deal had EXPIRED!!!!!!!! Oh my word!!!! I had spent all that time deciding and pricing...all for nothing! All I could do was laugh really, just my luck :)   I guess I didn't need that duffle bag anyways....who am I kidding, I wonder what deal they have going on today.... :)
