Barb~ I knew you would know the answer to that question & I'm not surprised that there is a fee for this, working on a small margin as they do...
Does anyone remember Priceline grocery shopping? I used to submit bids, print the prices accepted and go to the store. I saved a ton of money shopping with them and I really miss the service. Too bad that went away!
An interesting note~ The President of Priceline started building a palacial estate in the town next to ours a few years ago & stopped when they started to have problems along with many of the .coms. It's nice to see they survived their woes & seem to be doing better now. It was a big deal in the local papers as the home was so big - 10K+ sq. ft. that so many trees were being taken down, in an area that is virtually a wild life preserve. This town has 2+ acre zoning, is very "eco" conscience & is very concerned about the impact of building. They had pictures of the site in the local paper- just a lonely, abandoned huge foundation & cut down trees in the midst of the forest. Looked so sad... They made it sound like he had clear cut the rainforest... I haven't heard whether construction resumed, or was completed...
