Anyone buy from the MCP store?

Im trying to break away from so much caffeine so i bought an MCITP water bottle.

Perhaps its a little pretentious but now I dont have to buy water in a bottle and I can piss off my coworker that cant pass exams without dumping.

Just wondering if anyone buys stuff from it.

Are you only allowed to buy one if you're an MCITP? That'd be funny.

No, I never buy from them. However, I've seen they occasionally have some good discounts on training materials.

Actually, yes.

There are sections of of stores that open up as you earn a cert.

For instance i am an MCP, MCTS and MCITP, so those sections are open to me.

You would have all of them since you have basically all the cert levels.

That's a shame...I'd probably plunk down money for some of those hats, they were frickin' hysterical!!

I bought an MCP shirt from the store years ago when I passed. It was buried somewhere in the closet. I found it sometime last year, and I debated wearing it into the NOC to see how many dirty looks I could get (I work in a Debian shop).

I ultimately decided that'd be a bad idea, as I don't want them to know I actually know anything about Microsoft products. If I did, they'd start shoving those tickets at me
