I ordered a Tracy Anderson Cardio Dance from eBay and received a Goodfellas DVD instead. Never got the Tracy DVD

I've never found anything strange inside a workout DVD case. But when I purchased Stephanie Huckabee's Power Fit Harmony on eBay, it arrived with a jar of jalapeño jam.

There was even a note included that said "Enjoy the jalapeño jam!" I ended up giving it to my mom who glazed a ham with it.

I've ordered "The Firm: Total Body Workout Abs, Hips & Thigh", and I got a "Soul Celebration" DVD, I complained and got my money back. I ordered again from another seller, and guess what? I got the exact same Soul Celebration DVD

Sand, that was a so sweet of them to do that.

I ordered Kettlebell Kickboxing 7 Day Lean from eBay. When it arrived I heard a disc rattling around and sighed about packaging. When I opened the case all the 7 Day Lean discs were where they were supposed to be and secure. The disc rattling around was KCM’s Abs and Core disc. My sigh turned to a squeal of delight as I didn’t have that disc. It was on the side of the case that doesn’t have a spot to secure a disc so Abs and Core wasn’t even that damaged. I always wondered if it was someone here who donated it by accident. I’m happy to have it in any event.

These stories are so fun! Love the cookie and paper towel.

Years ago I was part of a group of women on the old WW message boards who encouraged each other to work out. When I bought the Yoga Booty Ballet program, Beach Body sent an extra VHS copy of the original workout. I loaned it out to one of the women in the group, and it ended up going round robin to all of us. When it got back to me it had a note in it that all the other ladies signed with cute messages about the workout.

Years ago, I ordered 10ms fitness ball workout. Got, popped it in the DVD player and Crunch Belly, butt, & thighs started playing instead.

The DVD said 10ms fitness ball workout on it, so I'm not really sure what happened there.


More recently, I got QF cardio mix and there was a stretchie band inside. I only bought it because I was on a kickboxing, well kick, and I don't think it's used in any of the workouts.

That's quite a nice bonus to receive with the DVD! I love hearing stories of people doing nice, unexpected things!

I keep the notes from trades if any come with them. Makes me happy.

I got the Pastor Doug DVD, and that's the most unusual thing I've encountered. Nothing against him, but I would rather have gotten a cookie! I love that!
