oh very smart... not

I've been waiting for this to happen for some time now. A stupid company has set their web pages up to advertise their wares, but they are so totally into control that when cookies are blocked their web page won't load. Idiots.

I've seen a lot of sites that need cookies in order to remember your preferences, so functionality is hampered without cookies. But at most of those sites you can still choose to enable them or not. This site I found today just won't load without cookies. There is no way I would enable cookies for such a site.

Wow. Dumbest e-commerce strategy EVER!

It is.

I'm hoping it's just a mistake.
Maybe I should unblock cookies so I can find out their email address and ask them. I'm getting curious.
