Gypsy update: I linked all my cartridges! It takes less than 30 seconds to link each one, so it didn't take me too long. Now, to see if my cartridges still work...........LOL - they better!!!

The Gypsy!!!

I can hardly believe it, but...I got a Gypsy! September 24 was the launch of the Gypsy on HSN. So, at 10:00, I watched a UStream show with the 3 girls from the Christmas with the Cricut blog. After that, I headed over to HSN and ordered my Gypsy! I opted for the flex pay plan, which is cool. The HSN package included a sleeve for the device, USB cable, cartridge sync cable, the cord that connects the Gypsy to my Cricut, a cool carrying case (black with hot pink piping), a car charger and the Don Juan cartridge!!! The cartridge was HSN's bonus. I love it!

I have not actually plugged it in to my Cricut yet, but I do have an exciting tip to pass on to you. How do 700 Reward Points sound?? Well, when you sync the G with your computer, the first thing it does is ask you to register it. I'm not sure if it was my computer that was the problem, but it didn't say "thank you for registering" right away. What I saw next (a few hours later) was a message asking me to confirm the serial number, which is on the bottom of the Gypsy under the bar code. Once I did that, it was probably a full day before they sent me an email giving me the codes. One is for 200 points (100 points for each of the pre-loaded cartridges) and the other is for 500 points (for the Gypsy).

I hope to have more to report after this weekend! Oh, and check out my Etsy shop! Finally got it up and running! I don't have a lot of items listed yet because it's recommended that you space your listings out. Let me know what you think!
