I've been lurking on the board from time to time and decided it's time to introduce myself. I am located in the Pacific Northwest and have been shopping for 2 months. I had previously shopped about 6 years ago (very briefly), but enjoyed it. I'm finding the experience to be a good way to have a free or discounted date night to places I may not otherwise visit. So far, it has been a real learning experience with regard to each company's standards and reporting styles. All in all, mostly enjoying the experience with the assumption I'll get reimbursed for the shops!
Take care,
M
