Black Tuesday 2013

Almost a full 2 hours later...my order was finally received. Thank god my boss is a Reserve member and understands my pain.

 

i'm not mad.....just really laughing.....at myself.....for sitting here for 2 hours trying to buy 3 stinkin bottles of beer. what the fuck am i doing?!?!

 

Open Chrome's settings, type 'password' into the 'search' box on the settings page, then click on 'manage saved passwords'. You can reveal them there.

 

They say 30 minutes of exercise every day, I wonder if 120 minutes of an exercise in futility counts?

 

Yeah! Cuz Black Friday shopping is way more chaotic than the Black Tuesday stock market crash was!

 

For those still trying, I think it's best if you open one tab and focus on just trying to get in with that one. I am on Chrome and it worked fine for me.

 

After having it time out twice and getting all the way to the last step on the third attempt (confirming credit card) it now says out of stock. Fuck.

EDIT. For those of you that got to the last step and then had nothing/cart clear. Check your account page, as I didn't receive confirmation, but the order is showing as completed there.

 

I used Chrome on my shitty internet connection and was able to secure 3 bottles. Printed my confirmation and everything. It was such a pain in the ass; had to refresh every page several times throughout the process. Credit Card page was by far the worst because you had to re-enter the info every time.

 

Use firefox. I got through pretty quickly after like 10 min.

 

I still haven't got a working 'add to cart' button

 

I failed at CC auth Screen. Should I refresh?

 

As of 14 minutes ago, the Bruery has tweeted that there is "plenty more still." I got the same error message a couple times, but still got my bottles in the end.

 

this is worst than standing in line at HF with freezing weather

 

That's what copy/paste is for.

 

I just edited my post above. My order went through but didn't have any confirmation. After checking my orders page, it looks like it was filled.

 

i think i'm most upset that I've wasted 2 hrs of my life now trying to give bruery $110 and have come up unsuccessful. kind of sad.

 

Thanks for the Firefox heads up. After losing my initial cart, I jumped on Firefox and was able to score my bottles. Took about 15-20 minutes.

 

My cart will timeout a 2nd time

 

I'm almost ashamed to admit how much satisfaction I'm getting from the order received message on my screen. What an ordeal. Two hours, but it was two hours for a small victory in beerdom. Take everyone's advice. FireFox is the way to go. Not even close. Thanks for all the tips folks. You're truly beeradvocates!

 

I didn't get a confirmation email, but it's confirmed in my account.
