[CH] LAST CALL!!! Cut-off date in ONLY 2 days. 3rd Annual Red

All,
So far: 47 boxes ordered & 24 paid for.
SPREAD THE WORD! TELL YOUR FRIENDS!
We need 3 more boxes ordered more in the next 2 days to complete the order.
~~~
If this doesn't happen, I'll check with Mary Garcia to
see if she'll have Frank pick later or he'll fill a smaller
than minimum required order.
Remember, Frank's got 40 acres.
That's ~774,400+ pepper plants,
or ~1,000+ tons of Red Savinas & Franciscas.
Our little 500 pound minimum order is only 0.02%
of their business. They're doing us a favor by even
allowing us to buy, when they could much more
easily sell to any of their other buyers, all far bigger.
To put it another way, WalMart, to whom they sell
through a broker, is, most likely, of greater interest
to GNS Spices than is our little pittance.
The trucking company only needs 2 days' advance
notice, so that's no problem.
