The time is flying by as we are building a new shopping experience. We are weeks away from seeing the site come together. It's like giving birth. By the time you reach the ninth month, you are so excited to meet the child that has been developing. (Ok - you moms know what I'm talking about). Gettington is another baby that I will have the opportunity to watch grow and I can't wait to see it live.
There are so many things to share, but first you need to meet the Gettington that I already know. The best (but long) way is to share the Gettington story. This is envisioned to be the About Us page on the site. Please provide feedback. I would love to get your thoughts. BTW, my friends on Twitter helped with the signoff. Thank you @lisafischer, @brenda_haines, @jfernandez and @MohitGarg_.
About Us
More great brands, more ways to pay… and a bag full of surprises!
We are family.
Yes, that’s a Sister Sledge song from 1979 and definitely shows my age, but Gettington is all about the family and we are family just like you. We are mothers, fathers, sisters, brothers, husbands, wives, aunts, uncles and we juggle life the same ways you do. We work hard and manage our family budget best we can. We figure out how to get our kids to soccer, baseball and dance, and we nurse them back to health when they’re sick. We treasure our friends, plan vacations, try to save for rainy days…and never have enough time!
Our family at Gettington has designed this shopping experience with your family in mind. We want to provide a little help along the way, save you some time and hassles, and maybe even simplify life a little. And that starts by providing you the choices you need, from the great brands that we carry to a huge assortment of products, over 20,000 and growing.
We understand that managing your budget is very important. Every product at Gettington is offered with three ways to pay so you can decide what works best for your budget. You can pay in full using your own credit card. Or you can pay over just four months with our FAST Option. Or give yourself more time with low monthly payments by using our EASY Option. Every page of the website has a control panel that displays your product selections along with your payment options of Pay Now, Fast Option (4-pay) or EASY Option (extended pay).
We created these options so you can have choices in how to pay. But unlike typical credit card companies, you won’t find us in the nickel and dime game or trying to create “perma-debt”. In fact, our options help you pay off your balance much faster than typical credit cards. We believe that transparency and honesty is the path to great decisions. At any time you can view the total payment cost from your control panel.
We also believe that random acts of kindness make the world a better place. We make random acts of kindness part of our everyday life through the Gettington Goodie Bag. When you create your account online you will automatically receive a virtual goodie bag. At any time there will be special items placed in your goodie bag – from secret sales, limited-edition merchandise, special discounts, and even freebies. Check your Gettington Goodie Bag often, as the goodies do expire.
That’s it, from our family to yours. Hope to see you back often.
Live well-Live great,
Paula Drum
General Manager, Gettington
PS – We want to hear from you. Please let us know what you liked and what you don’t like so we can provide the best service for you.
Paula: This sounds interesting. The payment options and Goodie Bag are different for sure. I'm wondering though, beyond those elements how Gettington will differ from Alice.com. Are you concerned about creating a new Yahoo vs. Google with the both Gettington and Alice.com being launched around the same time? I admire you for joining such a new and different venture.

I don't have any opinion about what Sue Lowden said there, but I get the impression she has this stupid imperial air about her when answering questions and dealing with people. I get the impression she's used to snapping her fingers, pointing and casino workers just leap into action
Our store offers you all kinds of favourite products like Adidas World Cup 2010 Shoes

Great post, Chuck. Had to get four so far and counting. Those asking for multiple user accounts, this device is as personal as an iPod or iPhone...ultimately everyone in a hosuehold is going to want one of their own...given that it costs far less than a well-equipped desktop or laptop, that's relatively feasible. Of course, costs will continue to come down.

"My dream is to travel across the U.S.A. and dance in a new place every night!"
Agh! That sounds so cool! If you ever do that (even a mini version), let us know. Meetup could be a great way for you to find dances to attend! =)
In the mean time, I spotted this Meetup Group in your area that might be perfect:

Everyday I'm honored by having two wonderful children. Mind you - they are a handful. Alexandra is three and a half and Hudson is almost two. They tackle me as soon seks seyretas I get home. I mean physically tackle me. There are so many wonderful things that they do everyday as they piece together our world. Just last night Alexandra stumped me on one of our social norm
