Report Card: The Radio Shopping Show

When I posted about The Radio Shopping Show here, I was anxious to give it a try and see what it was like.  After listening for awhile to see how it works and signing up for a "key tag" I thought I should give it a whirl. 

I was very interested in Legoland (Schaumburg, IL) tickets since we were planning a trip there with some friends very soon.  I found these tickets on The Radio Shopping Show for $8.00 each - the normal admission price to get in is $19.95.  I called up during the show and had them added to my bin.  Since they were having a Road Show very soon nearby I thought I would save myself the $2.00 service fee for a credit card mail order (CCMO) and pick them up. 

When I went to pick up my tickets I had decided that I also wanted to get tickets to Anderson Japanese Gardens (Rockford, IL).  Regular admission price to get in is $7.00 for an adult but on The Radio Shopping Show I was able to get these tickets discounted for the price of $3.50 each. 

It just so happened that the day I choose to pick up my purchases there was a special running.  Each shopper that purchased $30 or more and picked up their order on Friday or Saturday got a "Mystery Envelope" which could contain a dining certificate, Radio Shopping Show CASH or even a hotel getaway including a three night Florida Vacation package.  I ended up with a $10 certificate for a restaurant. 

Picking up the tickets was really easy, once I found where I was supposed to go.  They were hidden a bit among all the other activities in the area where they were.  There were no signs directing listeners where to go, and since this was my first time I had no idea what to look for.  After I finally found them, the transaction went smoothly and was very quick. 

I am very happy with my purchases, after all I got $103.80 in tickets & dining certificates for only $39.00!  What a deal!  I give The Radio Shopping Show an A+!  Head on over and check it out!
