Seems like this is the LAST week to fix up all costume related business; if you know you are selling or have sold your costume get the information to TRIBE by Friday please or else give the person who is buying your costume the authorization letter and copy of ID so they can collect the costume. All those paying by credit card note that it can only be done at the mas camp by Friday as well. Yes, I had to translate for you because I know someone will ask me this very same information in the coming week!
Carnival is almost here people, can you feel it?!!!!

I'm getting a little tooooo excited...
But I cyar wait!!!
masquerade they probably don't have your correct email address...or have it with some sort of typo. My friend never used to get them either and it was because they spelt it wrong.
Sauce, I bet the email did not say 'Dear Saucy'....LOL
:D Jamette you know it said "Dear Saucy" lol (j/k)
Am I feeling it??? Yes, yes, and more YES!!!!
But I didn't get that email from TRIBE yet.Seeing that I got the "Xmas Blast" one, I should get it eventually.
ELEVEN MORE DAYS!!!! (before I fly down!)
YES YES YES...I CAN'T WAIT!!!
BUT first I have to finish decorating my boots...LOL. There I was last night putting more decorations on my boots and checking my carnival list once, twice, three times...
Personally I think that fancy sailor is the first section b c that is how the girls were dressed at the launch...
OH gosh....everybody. We READY!
Snowed again lastnight....tiptoed across a block of ice this morning.
Even if I buss mi tail on snow, I WILL BE THERE!
jamett dey have the right one i got me costume confirmations and all the costume bookings i did came thru fine so i dunno
Hmmm well den i doh know nah. Like quirky said up there, email them. They are good at responding.
ahymm buh saucy you CANNOT pay with credit cards at the Mas camp or at Cascadia. Payment with Credit cards is ONLY via SENVIA which is an internet online service only.And again the deadline to use credit cards+SENVIA is Fri 2nd. Linx and cash only at the mascamp and Cascadia.
Doh think I eh try already with my superswipin self.
De trini here.....just ah question if anyone can answer.....if I pay for my FIREMAN costume with my credit card on Servia...is it regarded as a cash transaction or a purchase? Anybody know????
Diva I had a blonde moment there :S
Last year you paid via credit card at the mas camp with no senvia b/s. steups
De Trini I cannot confirm but there is a fee for Senvia.
De trini here again......forget to say thanks saucy for helping us who on the outside, this site has been very entertaining and informative, if only the bosses knew how much time I spend here lol loss wuk right dey. Would like to know when the bloggers lime is and if i could invite mehself LOL LOL
I think its registered as purchase on senvia, not sure but definitely with a surcharge. Saucy you sure about that credit card thing in the camp last year? I doh think you could ever have used credit cards at the camp. It was an online system with some other company. I distinctly remember when it crashed last year that I had to run to the atm and get cash and run to the mas camp to fork it over for that said reason that they could not take credit cards. The took linx. I have been to other business places that have a linx machine and can't take credit card, supposedly there is an added merchant use fee for the option.
Whey so in 10days. Whey I juss cyar wait.
De Trini, Senvia does in fact incur a fee. From the US it's $20 and from Canada it is $13.
PS. Jumbie! Jumbie dem...Outta Body, backtuhyuhself now! :D:D:D:D
Well to be honest I never used credit card, cash only! When the system crashed all them people with credit card and linx had to line up and wait. I cooly went to the back and handed over my cash to Monique :D
Saucy - I havent gotten my email yet..but hell I dont even need to..you outlined the whole thing fuh me. I've already decided that Carnival Thursday (the day after I arrive) will be costume today. I will trek all the way to Cascadia, pay, pick up, and then get all the bits and pieces I need - earrings, glitter, hot shorts...West Mall here I come!!
It sure beats spending $550 at Beach House...lol
Dragon Princess - Just an FYI for u so u don't waste your time- Tribe will be sending out an email regarding which sections will be distributed on certain days. You can't just decide that you will go on carnival Thurs to pick up your costume. It doesn't work that way. Tribe will designate which days are for specific sections. If you miss the designated day because you are not in the country yet, then you must wait til carnival fri or sat which are the designated days for foreigners to pick up their costumes. From what I remember last year Tribe will not even be @ Cascadia on carnival Thurs because they will be busy preparing for their fete that night at the Oval.
Ahmm so I gone to pay my balance in TRIBE right...and their LINX down!! Cash only, they giving only manual receipts. When it coming back up...nobody knows!!
