Has anyone tried the Cinnamon tea remedy to induce a period?

Lisa
I never know when my periods are coming up nor do I check them. But when I found out I was going back home to see friends and family,(including my crush) next week on Monday, I checked Glow to make sure aunt flow wasn't trying to ruin my mini vacay. 
Much to my demise, it turns out my period is gonna start on a freaking Saturday!!!!! Son of a bitchhh!!! 
I started freaking out and immediately started looking for things to induce a period(start it early). I found a crap load of remedies on Google and one of those remedies just so happened to be drinking Cinnamon Tea. 
Basically what you do is, you can use either cinnamon sticks or cinnamon powder. I didn't have cinnamon sticks and on top of that cinnamon sticks would have been much more work so I just stuck to the powder. But you take like a coffee mug and add 1 tbl spoon of cinnamon powder(optional: add nutmeg) and then you boil like a small pot of water. Once the water boils add it to the cinnamon and then let it seep for like ten minutes, then enjoy. 
I started drinking it after I made it on Tuesday at around like 2 pm I think. It was so bad I just couldn't drink anymore so I stopped. I had drunk like almost majority of it. At around I think maybe 10 pm I went to use the bathroom and I noticed spotting. When I went again at 12am I noticed more spotting. So I just made another cup and plan on drinking the whole thing this time. But if this works as well as I think it's working then I should have my period by the time I wake up. Hopefully this works!
But until then has anyone ever tried this and had it work for them? I'm extremely curious to know.
