Still unavailable from my work. I keep getting timeouts and 500 error messages. Which sucks, because I wanted to order something online thats not available in my local stores.

Yeah.. I don't get it.. why did they choose a completely different color scheme for their webpage.. one would think they would stick with the colors the store uses so everyone can recognize it better.

Why were you guys all commenting on the purple "theme"? If you dug into it more, they used all colors. It just so happened that the purple was on the first page.

I don't know about fugly but the navigation is horrible. Pages expire when you use the back button.
