Help Wanted for the 2008 Season
It’s that time of year again: We’re hiring. Specifically we’re looking for a local person — located in the south-eastern part of New Hampshire — looking for part time employment, between 24-32 hours per week from April to September. We want a person who is dependable, responsible, and detail-oriented. This position could become a full-time spot for the right person. If you’re interested, keep reading…

Reusing Foam Boxes, Bubblewrap, and Ice Packs
Recycling is a really terrific pro-environment practice: metals like steel and aluminum, plus glass, plastics, and other wastes, are all recyclable. This is good since the practice saves us a lot in terms of natural resource consumption and the subsequent pollution resulting from manufacturing. Recycling doesn’t eliminate resource consumption or the pollution, but it helps. Recycling is often not the best course of action, though. There’s one better: Reuse.

2008 Pricing Updated
Since our 2008 catalog is out there, it was time to update the pricing on this web site to match. Both are done. And in general, on average, our pricing has dropped significantly. Some items stayed the same, and some went up, but these are in response to rising costs or abnormal handling charges (we have to pay). Everything else went down. Some items enough to notice.

Our 2008 Catalog’s Available
On schedule, on time, and ready for the new year, our 2008 catalog is now available and ready to be sent to you upon your request.

We’d send it free to others as well, but most countries cannot buy from us without a permit, and postage costs are outrageous. Thus we have a limit.
Please note: If you’re an existing customer and you ordered from us within the past couple years, we have sent you a copy automatically. Some of you, in fact, may have it already.

Our 2007-2008 Holiday Schedule
The holidays are upon us. We’re a small outfit and we shut down for a week. Even though we communicate this in our catalog and on this site, we do like to remind you of this fact. We know it’s a bit of an inconvenience for some of our customers, and we’re really sorry about that, but we know many are like us and just need to shut down for a few days at least. In our case, shipping of bugs would be impossible anyway, so there’s little incentive to be open.

Thanksgiving 2007 Heads-Up
Are you ready for a meal so big that your only option following it will be to take a big nap? Yep, us too. That’s the Thanksgiving trend in America, and part of the fun of it. But over-eating isn’t the only trend. Taking the day after off is as well. Makes sense, it takes a lot of napping to burn it all off. All this eating, sleeping, and skipping work the next day requires some scheduling changes. And that’s the reason behind this quick post.
