"automatically" correct? Anatomically perhaps? Love Skullie! Where did you find that Gene? Would be a great decoration for Halloween to scare the kiddies!!!

I have not heard a number that attended the show. I do know the skeleton got us on several T.V. Stations.. Our booth stayed packed. The only thing I could do was stay at the podium and collect money. We lost some sales due to us getting too busy at times. I saw some put product back because the line to pay was too long. Most of our itimes Retailed less than 10.00 Just on the Square we did 375.57 Here is squares report this morning. All sales according to Square was new customers no returning one
Gross Sales $351.00 Discounts $0.00 Tax $24.57 Tip $0.00 Total Collected $375.57
Hourly Sales

Scott (by private e-mail) Pointed out the fact to me that orders like this are why I maintain a minimum of 200 on each product. This is normal orders for first time ordering. Plus my regular customers are ordering each week. This is why I do only Production runs. Had I not have such huge inventory I could not go back to back shows and still be able to meet my customers orders.
