Bearisy Gray: Hi I think you missed the target. That only 1500.
Don't feel bad I did the same sort of thing this past week.

I would invite my 4 best friends and we'd all share the fun!

Well, first I'd invite all my quilting friends to meet me at the LQS and treat them all! Do you think I could slip in a new Bernina as "fabric"????

You mean I couldn't go out and get a Gammill with that? Damn!

Oh yes, I could spend that on fabric... I'd take the first flight out to Bali... and stuff a container full of batiks!

Let me get my mom, we could totally make that happen. Even if we couldn't get a long arm. My DH on the other hand, would probably have a heart attack! :-)

That's only 30 batik kits with backing. No problem.

If I got it in the morning I would drive up to Hancocks of Paducah (3 hour drive) walk in ask for the manager, slap the money on the counter, and tell them if they want the pile of cash they need to make me happy!!!

I would be wheeling and dealing (I know all about gross profit and sales numbers) you guys might get 100 to 125 bolts of fabric but cash is king and I would more than likely walk out with closer to 200 or so bolts. Remember when you buy in bulk you get a hell of a discount!! ;-) ;-)
