For a limited time (aka: I haven’t decided yet), all orders from the TodaysHomemaker.com Store will qualify for $2.50 shipping…no matter how much you order. This could either be very good for me (more orders!) or very bad (geez, shipping is crazy outrageous right now). We shall see.
My last order from my supplier cost me $35 in shipping. Surprised? You bet I was. In fact, that is what inspired the idea to slash my shipping charges until I can no longer afford to do so–call it retaliation, call it an effort to feel like I’m in control, call it whatever you like.
This reminds me of one of the acts on this week’s Last Comic Standing. I’ll try not to butcher the joke too much. This is my very loose recollection of what was said:
I hate it when politicians try to justify the price of gas. The other day, I heard some guy rambling on about how gas is one of the cheapest liquids available. He argued that a gallon of orange juice costs $4.50, while gas is only $2.50 or so.
Yeah, that’s great. Except I don’t have to buy 20 gallons of orange juice every six days.
If anyone is going to be in Downtown Portsmouth tomorrow, I’m going to be participating in a show there, so come check it out. I’ll also be sampling some of the products in our store, so…you know…yum.
