Thursday Evening Edition
What's Going On.
Precruise Going On's
IMPORTANT...
To make sure we get our pins in time for the cruise, I will need to get the payment to Susan by 3/14 the latest. Ideally, we should have the order cut off on 2/14, which would give everyone 3 weeks to get the payment to me. We can extend that by a week, as I am padding this to leave no room for errors. I figure I need the payment by 3/7. Susan says she needs the payment by 3/14, and will order by 4/1, so we will have our pins by 4/29 (this leaves only a 2 week window for error) Once we cut off the orders, I will contact Susan with our total, and then she will get the pricing. I will PM everyone as well as post the price. Initially, I was going to just purchase them, and collect when I pass them out. But we have so many orders, which will amount to $900 or so, and I guess you can figure out why it will be pay first
Recap: Order cut off by 2/14 - 2/21
Payment to me by 3/7
Payment to Susan by 3/14
Susan will order and pay by 4/1
Pins delivered to me by 4/29
Please let me know if you have any suggestions or comments!
