Today is my anniversary. With eBay that is. 23 years on this account. They mention I bought 2 things this year but nothing about the hundreds of items I sold.

I used those and the 15% off coupons to buy quite a few of my “grails” back in the day pre-covid.
Days are gone now…long gone…

I was just about to write the same thing. Ebay is far too greedy to bring them back.

Remember Vertical Bucks from Mountain Dew?
I think it was early 2000s. I had everyone at work giving me caps…and got so many free t-shirts of Mets, Red Sox and Yankees I was giving them away….

I don’t know about vertical bucks but I got a free goldback the other day. It’s a bill that is infused with gold. Roughly $4 worth of gold in it. Not bad for free.
Actually, vertical bucks were 90s. Pepsi was the one that did the tee shirts.
I watched a docu-series about the guy who sued Pepsi for the fighter jet they advertised you could redeem with points. Fascinating three episodes.

I watched that
I shared that video with my wife and kids. Too funny.
Actually came here to post I hit $10,000 in Mercari profits lifetime.
For all the neigh-sayers, it’s slow but there is money to be made there.

All of it still has to get “approved” from the government… that’s when we can call it a done deal!

How does that even work…”all cash”?
Is someone bring a suitcase to the deal filled with greenbacks? What is the least amount of individual bills that can total up to $108B that’s currently printed? How many armored trucks are showing up to this transaction…!
I don’t consider electronic funds “cash”….cash is cash…physical paper bills…
