FP - How die YAGS (Yet Another Great Sale) make top 10?
auggie24 -- 2/21/2008 6:02:25 AM


I have no idea either auggie. That is just a failure one. Also, why are the top 10 "best" all about sales or stores or stuff? Why not something INTERESTING and CATCHY? Pretty disappointed with the results (mine was better).
Stexe -- 2/21/2008 6:51:43 AM


Here are my votes: Best -> Your Ultimate Gear (drop Shop) Worse -> (They're all bad and undeserving of acknowledgment) I might add a possible alternate, too - YUG = Your Undeserved Gift
dhillinmkewi -- 2/21/2008 6:52:11 AM


yikes, u'r gas stinks
waltband -- 2/21/2008 7:03:12 AM

A sound often muttered while sitting on the throne, one hand squeezing the roll of toilet paper, the other grasping the half-empty bottle of Metamucil LOL.. Where's the iPhone while you're on that throne?

Yours Until Gone
UnkleZed -- 2/21/2008 9:45:23 AM


Mine wasn't on there? I can't believe it! Your Ultimate Geek Store is the best! Judy
judybloom -- 2/21/2008 9:47:28 AM


Your Until Gone is the best! Your Underwear's Got Stains is the worst and Yiddish Ukulele Gangsta' Society is the funniest.
mbazzoni -- 2/21/2008 9:48:40 AM


I like--"your ultimate gadget store"
Delilahdt -- 2/21/2008 10:23:19 AM


judybloom - that was a good one -- our eyes were playing tricks on us after going through about 500+ of these....
MasterYug -- 2/21/2008 10:36:06 AM


I can't resist: Question: "FP - How die YAGS (Yet Another Great Sale) make top 10?" Answer: via a typo, such as, "FP - How die..."

Best: Your Unbelievably Great Steals; Funniest: You Usually Get Something; Worst: Yellow Undercutting Gunslinging Supersellers
bipwop -- 2/21/2008 12:27:24 PM


"crushed" lytrob's shameless self-promotion (entered twice no less) should be ruthlessly removed rapidly - rather ridiculous, right?
bipwop -- 2/21/2008 12:34:11 PM


Yet Unother great sale ---included with the typo was the intention (and yes i know its spelled wrong)
egoatlast -- 2/21/2008 12:37:05 PM


I agree with delilahdt. "Your Ultimat Gadget Store" And not just because it's mine.
dbailey569 -- 2/21/2008 1:25:53 PM


You guys/gals must have a ball - got any job openings?
Jim33 -- 2/21/2008 1:48:48 PM


If only they would replace any of the suffixes that actually covered the "S" in YUGS, even those that didn't and add/change to "Site" as this is a web"site" I think they would be more befitting to the acronym. Otherwise, "Yours Until Gone (Site)" in my weak opinion is the Best, if you think about it, it could be the intelligently Funniest as well since there is some stuff put up for sale that is surprising that your don't have to just give it away and reap the tax benefit of charity as your best profit. I still prefer you folks to that E*** site and you've saved me a few times when I need a gift or idea for the difficult person.
ddavidt -- 2/21/2008 2:38:03 PM


Yikes! My entry is listed neither in the funniest nor worst categories! I can only assume that my wife neglected to put sufficient postage on the e-mail.
tyanny -- 2/21/2008 4:18:50 PM


I have to agree with ddavidt with his site comment. I like Yours until Gone and also Your Ultimate Gadget Source
chicofreedom -- 2/21/2008 4:37:21 PM

Your Ultimate Gadget Source
chuckiechan -- 2/21/2008 4:47:03 PM


Just a note, if I remember correctly, the survey did not ask for an acronym of YUG or YUGS but simply what the meaning was. Therefore the entries weren't required to follow the "acronym." Although it seems that's how many read the prompt.
smileyborg -- 2/21/2008 5:25:19 PM


Being from Texas I might have added "Y'alls Ultra Giftshop Stop"
QueenYugga -- 2/21/2008 5:39:01 PM


Ye Ultimate Gadget/Gift Store ????? None of these really just ring my bell! They are okay, but if I had a margarita or two...or some of you had a margarita or two, it might help.
QueenYugga -- 2/21/2008 5:45:44 PM


maybe this contest should run a while longer

yaakov -- 2/21/2008 9:58:08 PM


I like Yielding Unusual Goods (YUG), or if you prefer, Yielding Unusually Good Sales (or Stuff) (YUGS).
robbit73 -- 2/22/2008 8:46:42 AM


Or even Yielding Unusually Great Sales (or Stuff).
robbit73 -- 2/22/2008 8:48:45 AM

"judybloom - that was a good one -- our eyes were playing tricks on us after going through about 500+ of these.... MasterYug -- 2/21/2008 10:36:06 AM" So...add it to the list! I don't mind! Oh Puleeeeeaaaaase......
judybloom -- 2/25/2008 5:36:48 PM


probably best one, which is in line with keeping it simple - "Yours Until Gone", or "You Usually Get Something"
BobbyB1 -- 2/27/2008 7:44:34 AM


BEST: Yours Until Gone; FUNNIEST: Yesterday's Unpurchased Goods; WORST: All of them (plus a few from the FUNNIEST category!)
F4vrefly -- 2/27/2008 11:43:05 AM


I want some YUG Gear to wear! I think a t-shirt or tank top with a Yugster logo would be pretty cool. Say in red! What does everyone think?
