Mugs?

Dave do you want any prepaid orders yet?

No, we don't need to do that. We have money in the bank to finance the upfront ordering cost.

For those curious, the cost is $1,619.32 for 288 mugs (about $5.62 each). Considering breakages, mis-shipped stuff, replacements and so forth, I'm figuring we'll break even which I'm perfectly fine with.

- your gracious attitude is what makes DG such a wonderful place :)

I totally agree!

Do you send them an image file to be printed on it, or is that done by snail mail? Just curious how they do the printing.

Did you get the website on there Dave? I would love to see the web addy on our T-Shirts to advertise for you.
Hope you have the mugs by RU in April ....yea!!!!

I email them a high resolution image of our logo and they use that to make the screens.

dave

No website on the mug - just the logo. I guess the website address always makes me think of a corporate thing... There was enought clammering that the next run of shirts will have the website, however.

dave

Any idea when the next shirt order might be? And will there be more of the larger sizes ordered?

mg wants a shirt! And a mug! And a keyboard protector and a keychain and a hat and a ummm...

Well, there are still shirts in stock. See the Extras page for ordering info.

dave

Any new news, Dave? *tip toeing out*

dave, do you plan to bring some to the TX RU? Would save some of us on shipping cost. Jo

No news yet.

Yes, Jo- assuming all goes well, we'll be bringing both shirts and mugs to the RU.

Trish

I got the artwork proof by email today. As soon as I approve it, we should have the mugs in hand 2 weeks later.

And yes, I'll have plenty of shirts and mugs at the roundup. :-)

Here's the proof.

dave

Cool, they will look so nice! Can't wait to get one.

Kelly

They look great. Hope you order lots of them :-))

Hot diggity dog!!!!!

So now you all need to come to the round up so you can get one sooner!! We'd love to see you!! April 29th at the Southwood Pavilion in College Station, TX. See http://davesgarden.com/forums/t/573122/ for details!

Well, I sure would if I could but that's just a wee bit toooo far for me! LOL I sure am excited about the mugs, though. Thanks Dave!! :)

Elaine, if you should suddenly be visited by your fairy Godmother with her wand to grant your travel wish - pick me up on the way by!!!
ginni

I can't wait for MY hand to be holding one of those cool mugs. Thanks for doing this.

Those look really cool, Dave! Will be fun to have a couple of them. :-D

Will do, ginni! :) And just where is Elizabeth Montgomery when you need her? LOL

I'll take SIX of them!

Gotta have the "second edition" DG mug!

Shoe.

I'll take 2 also, I didn't get the 1st edition. :o(

Well, I've *got* to have 2 also!! One for drinking and one for my collection. Let's see ... I think that will make around 66? Dono for sure. LOL

Well, they changed the price on me (for reasons of colors) and so it looks like I'll have to offer the mugs at $9 instead of $8.

dave

That's okay by me. I still want 2. :)

still 2 for me!

Fine by me as well.. I was 2 as well :)

Thanks

Char

Not a problem, still want two. Thanks for all your work on this Dave.

Hey Shoe why do you need 6? There has to be a story in there somewhere.

Still 2 for me also!

I want 2, but I'll be sure and order when the day comes.
'Shoe, you particularly clumsy or what?

Thanks for all the stuff you take on for us, Dave.

"'Shoe, you particularly clumsy or what? "

Hehehe...welp, I have a mighty weird enterprise going on here. Ya see, it's like this...Being a former clown I decided to support DG by walking the streets all dressed up and balancing a DG mug on my head (with a bouquet of cut flowers in it!), wearing my DG T-shirt, pockets stuffed with DG literature, and juggling DG mugs, three of which will have superballs glued to the bottoms of them! In an effort to really get attention I'll "accidentally" drop a couple, the people will *GASP aloud, only to be surprised that the mugs bounce back into my hands!

The "Bouncing DG Mug Trick" will be symbolic of Dave's Garden, emphasizing that DG not only has garden and homelife info but also offers entertainment, surprises, smiles and, no matter what, will always bounce back to be there for ya!

(How's that for a story, Mystic?) :>) ô¿ô

I don't juggle and I've never been a clown, so I'll just want one, please.

Knew there'd be a story 'Shoe, thanks for the enlightenment. Pictures when you get them? ~Blooms

LOL Shoe, I'll take 2 Dave.....one for each hand....Lauri

I'l take 3 for when they get dirty and I forgot to turn the dishwasher on the night before. lol

You can't get anything less than $20 worth having nowadays, so that is a bargain.
Now I can see real terra cotta planters with Dave's logo on them. They would make cute planters for African Violet collectors.
Is there a company that makes decals that are personalized to apply to various gardening related things in our homes? LOL
