AsktheBuilder.com News - December 31, 2019
Dear ,
Are you a new subscriber in the past several days? This is NOT a normal newsletter. I rarely publish a newsletter the week between Christmas and New Year's Day. Hang in there for a regular issue.
Have you been around the block with me a time or two or two hundred? You know that I'm about to save you some sweet moola AND get your stuff squeaky clean!
Happy New Year!
The new year has already rung in for my friends Down Under like Phil and Russell. It's so much fun to have electron pals and I'm grateful to you if you communicate with me on a somewhat regular basis.
Are you old enough to remember having a real pen pal? You know, one where you write a real letter with a pen using cursive script? I've just started to revive this practice with my kids and it's fun! I sent each one a special Christmas letter last week.
I'd to give you an idea of how much pleasure I get creating this newsletter for you. I often share one tiny morsel of my past with no expectation of what might happen when you read it.
Sometimes it creates a tsunami of replies that I savor much like getting a SKOR candy bar from a friend! Yes, I'm a sucker for SKOR bars.
It happened last week.
The story about the Christmas tree my Dad loved allowed you to relive a childhood moment! Can you believe I had a tree like that?
I'm serious when I say that your responses are each a special prize. It's very fulfilling knowing I rekindled a fond memory that brightened your day.
Tony, who lives just 40 miles south of me in Manchester NH, sent me a link to a fascinating history story of these iconic aluminum Christmas trees. Thanks, Tony!
FLASH Stain Solver SALE
I'm sure you've seen advertisements saying:
Inventory Reduction SALE
That headline is accurate. The business owner is desperately trying to reduce the amount of her/his inventory of a product(s)!
I'm trying to do the same in the next five days as we have WAY TOO MANY two-pound containers of Stain Solver at the fulfillment center.
First, what is Stain Solver?
