It’s calendar time again. Last year we got a nice response, but things have gotten worse like the rest of 2020. After reviewing my printer’s price list and post office shipping costs, I can’t charge $10.00 each for them. I sell these calendars at my cost, and this year they’ll cost me 17.75 to print and ship. To me, that moves them out of the stocking stuffer range, and they’ll be more expensive than picking something up at Costco or Walmart. But, if enough of you find that there is still value in my little calendar, I’m up for producing one.
Because the pandemic kept Queen Anne and me from traveling out of state this year, I’ll pick out a dozen of my best blog shots. The size remains the same—6 ½ inches high (each half—about the size of a sheet of paper folded in half) and 8 ½ inches wide, and they have holidays noted on the dates. They’re printed on card stock—which is part of the expense.
If I can get five or more orders, I’ll put them together and place an order, but I need to know by November 1st to make a go/no-go decision. That gives me enough time to ship them in November before the holidays. If you’d like one, you can leave a comment in this post, use the contact form on my website (https://www.jimwitkowski.com/junk/index.php), or email me directly. Don’t forget to leave your contact information if I don’t already have it.
Until next time — jw
I found a source online that will do the printing and assembly cheaper than I can do in-house. If I can get five or more orders, I can offer them at $10.00 each. So I’m asking if you’d like a 2019 wall calendar with a dozen of this year’s Utah trip photographs on it. They’re 6 ½ inches high (each half—about the size of a sheet of paper folded in half) and 8 ½ inches wide, so they’re a smaller more convenient size than my old ones, and they’d be good stocking stuffers.
