Maybe one general hardware (company-based, like Jules' HG) co-op at a time plus "item" or "sale" specific co-ops approved by Jules?
I have to agree.....One Co-op at a time.
I was so confused yesterday, I posted things from Health Cabin to Jules Heaven Gifts Coop......
So...i think this is for the best.
One Co-op at a time.
Great idea JulesNow....ive got my iron skillet ready..if you need me to whop someone with it < evil grin>
Please oh Pluehseeeeeeeee let me whop someone
haha..
Jules if it's causing you that much frustration then I would say put an end to the co-ops within the group.
However if you still want to do them I don't see any reason why the HG co-op can't stay as a regular thing for the group. Since you already went to the trouble of getting the extra discount for everyone and doing the first one I don't see a reason for anyone else to run an HG co-op within the group.
As for other co-ops I don't think it is a bad thing for people to run them by you before starting them up that way the group can be kept more organized and there will be less confusion.
I would suggest one exception to the "1 at a time" rule though and that would be for instances such as ones like the EM one georgia just did where there was a really good sale that we won't see again. Still no reason it can't be mentioned to you before being posted though.
I would definitely say that all co-ops should only be done while dealing with companies with a proven track record though.

Or what if Jules continued to do the HG co-ops, but had the order sent to someone else. That way, she could still get the discount but someone else could do the hard part for her, making it easier on her. Or would that just be a PITA and too confusing? I guess you'd have to send the person who is recieving the order the shipping/supplies money huh.. hmm. Nevermind lol.
Yummmmmmmmm ! I made some strawberry freezer jam last week.
I can't wait for Okra to be ready...Love me some fried okra !
Along with.....Chicken N Dumplins.....
< definately a southern cook here >
See, that's the main thing I had against Trueman and I didn't keep quiet about it either. It is not a prove4n company and we have members of PIF that have had problems with them.
It would take a couple extra days to get it from you to someone else, but I wouldn't think that people would mind if it made it easier on you. You wouldn't have to sit on the floor and be in pain, or wait for someone else to help. You could just print the list of what everyone ordered and stick it in the package like you said, then the person that got it could seperate and ship on out. If you seriously want to do that and no one else wants to do it, I'd love to. As long as the supplies and shipping costs would be covered as I don't have any money to take that on. I also don't have/use paypal so that would be a PITA also. But I have OCD so everything would be done nicely LOL. People just might not want to pay for the extra fees of the shipping and supplies. I dunno, it's just a thought![]()
Yeah but dumplings are hit and miss ( no offense have no idea how yours are ). But when they are done right, tough to beat. Oh I bet the strawberry jam is goooooood. Apple butter, almost any preserves, yuuuuuum.
Yeah. No offense meant to anyone who does order from them, I hope it works out okay. But personally I would never order from a company who sends out more spam than the damn ....../...... spammers. Also from the couple things I bothered to look at on their site I could get the same things from US based ECF vendors for the same price.
Jules, are you sure you can't have the shipping address different from the payees address when you order? Most companies let you do that. Or do you just feel better with it coming to you first?
Sorry to change the subject....
But has anyone received the bottles from that co-op ?
I really need those bottles...
