The crappy thing is, that "I" don't think I bought enough for it, but my husband got me 8 sets for Christmas, and my parents got me 2 sets...plus the 7 or so that I bought myself. I feel like "technically" I do deserve to have the free set, but don't think I will get it. I wonder if they will look and see that between what I and my DH ordered, ALL went to the same address. The 2 my parents ordered went to their house.

Erin , why not send an email to Papertrey Ink and explain the 2 orders from you and your husband, those two total enough for the free anniversary set, as long as they were purchase between Feb '08 and Feb '09. I don't think your parents sets would count at all.

Live in the moment and make it so beautiful it's worth remembering.

I'm almost positive that as long as they go to the same address they count towards the anniversary set. Your parents won't count because they went to their house and not yours. I would do as others have suggested and email PTI and ask them. They are very helpful. Good luck.
PTI was really on the ball this month. My anniversary sets showed up in my regular order! Be on the lookout for yours!
Mine came as well!!!! I was so excited to see it in my order. I was also happy that they saved some money on shipping by just adding it to your order from this month's release. It is even more impressive in person I just put it in the case and hope my daughter will give me a few minutes to play when she take her quiet time.

I ordered at 5am on Sunday morning and still haven't gotten a shipping notice from PTI, which is VERY unusual for me. But I qualified for the anniversary set, so maybe I just won't get a shipping notice this month...and just be surprised!

Please email customer service to address this issue - they'll get it straightened out for you.
No, there are no plans to offer the Anniversary Set for sale. This is an incentive set to thank PTI customers, our special way of thanking people who support our company.
I know many people earned multiple sets this year, so I would expect there to be lots of giveaways, and for better or worse, some on Ebay.

I got my entire order this afternoon, including my Anniversary set. - :( UPS apparently got it caught in the belts and my stamp sets are damaged. My husband yelled at me that the UPS man was coming up the walk and I looked out to see the box sitting on out chair. I yelled out at him asking what happened to the box (He is a SUPER guy) and he explained that it was probably stuck on the belts and since I was home had me open it up. It snowed little plastic pieces. I haven't checked each little stamp piece, but I know that some were scratched and damaged. He logged it into the delivery and told me to contact Customer Service. I know that they sold out of some sets and I hate to have to set everything back - I have projects that I have waited for because of these sets - I fell in love with this months fantastic sets - plus the Anniversary set has lots to play with. Hopefully I will hear from CS soon as to what I should do. My driver said that UPS should take care of the damages with PTI - it's just how long till it's taken care of, plus they don't have all of them now.
So...I emailed them, and got an automated response that said something like "we try to answer emails in 3 days but if your email is about one of the following issues, THIS IS THE ONLY email you will get"
The first issue was qualifying for the anniversary set, there was a link to click...I clicked it and entered my email address, it said I made 8 qualifying purchases, then I checked my husbands email address and it said he made 6 that qualified. So all tolled "I" do qualify...There was more info that said that they analyze all the info carefully such as email address and real addresses to see who qualifies so try not to worry if you used different names etc.
So I guess I have no choice but try not to fret, and hope I get my free set...I sure wish I knew for sure though.

Can you post the link that you used to check with your email? I'd like to check mine even though I know I bought 12. LOL~ I didn't buy PTI until the fall and I had 12 sets as of end of January. So they all had to be bought last year, right? ;)
The page I look at(the one that comes up after you enter your email address) only says something about 6 sets? I'm confused about who gets the anniversary set.

You get the set if you order 12 or more in one year from Feb 15 to Feb 14.
If you order 24 sets, you get 2 free anniversary sets; 36=3; etc.
I've ordered 7 sets so far this year, so I think I'm well on my way to 2 anniversary sets next Feb. :rolleyes:

Ooh goodie! I was pretty sure I'd get it....I ordered 17 sets! :-) I hope that my order has shipped already and I just didn't get a shipping notification. I don't know why they wouldn't have shipped it right out like they always do!
I'm not sure if I really want to see the set, cause it would be really fun to open the package without having any idea! But just in case I change my mind, is there a picture of the this set anywhere?
Also has anyone who did not place an order this month received their set? Or, are they sending out those with orders first? I'm just trying to gauge when I might get mine, last year it seemed like it was months later.
I know last year they did take into account people whose email had changed and did send anniversary sets to people who had at least 12 sets go to the same address, or to the same name (in the case of people who had moved during the year). I vaguely remember some people had to tell them they qualified since their search was imperfect, but I can't remember anyone complaining that they didn't get what they deserved from PTI.
I knew I qualified this year, but had no idea I'd ordered 17 sets. WOW!:eek:

If you explained in your email that your DH ordered sets for you (and they were sent to your home address), they will likely fix it for you. Last year, my 12th set was ordered with my DH's paypal account and it wasn't credited to me. They looked into it after I contacted them and I got my anniversary set. I'm sure they will do the same for you!
As for this year, I haven't gotten my set yet, but didn't order this month either. Hopefully soon!
Last year I made the mistake of having my mom buy sets for me for Christmas and such. Of course, I then did not qualify for the anniversary set! So, this year I bought the sets, and had my husband and mom order ribbons and papaer and such for me.
I can see how it would be an absolute nightmare for PTI to keep track of.
I got confirmation on Monday that my set was sent, but it is still not here yet and I am not patient.
Papertrey anniversary set is here!
