SmartBargains.com or Smart Scammers
I’ve ordered some things from SmartBargains in the past. I even joined their SmartBargains member club or whatever it was for $7.95 so I could save money on shipping. But, I think that I have to put them on my scammers list after this week. On Monday, my wife emailed me a rug she liked … Read more
