Looks like calendar orders are slowing down. I hope we don't dry up at 42. I need at least a hundred to make it a good thing to do.

Not sure what the problem was, on the first screen I ordered 3, then on the next screen it showed 1 but the total was $144. I backed out at that point and thought I'd ask. I was wanting to order 3 and send a total of $75 just to sweeten the pie a bit. What did I do wrong? OK, figured out what I did wrong. My plan was to send a total of $75 so that's what I indicated on the first screen. My dense gray matter finally figured out the bottom of that screen is not for the total, but for the amount of extra $$ included in the order. Although it would be well worth it, I hadn't planned to send $75 extra. It now should show 3 calendars and an extra $10. And here I thought I'd go a full year without making a mistake.  |

I probably shouldn't have spoken publicly of the difference in shipping. Normally we order the calendars in bulk and then I ship them out as the orders come in. I have taken to having the out-of-the-U.S. orders shipped directly from the printer as they have sites in Europe and Canada. It does cost a little more but it relieves the complexity and expense of shipping internationally. The printer's price is rather fluid. This time of year they run sales of various sales of differing percentage reductions for a few days each. This year I had some multiple calendar orders shipped within the U.S. when the sale price was agressively less than we paid for the bulk order. I haven't yet received the bulk order but have been notified that it's on the way. As soon as it comes to me I will mail out the orders. It should take no more than a week from that time. |

Can you do me a favour, Willow? I have the calendar on my Christmas wish list, but don't know if one will be ordered for me (If I get the 2019 Corvette on my list, they might think a calendar as well would be over-the-top). Can you set one aside for me to purchase after Christmas? If you happen to get an order to be sent to a Calgary address with "Pine..." in the street name, feel free to send my reserved calendar. |

In your case (Canada) I would have it sent straight from the printer. They will print them as needed. |

The bulk shipment of calendars arrived at my house this afternoon. They look good. It's the first time I've seen them in paper. As of this evening every calendar that has been ordered is on it's way. I still have some available. |
