Harry & David great products, but a very disappointing experience

Yeah, like the Totino ones, only better. We're still not totally happy with the sauce, but this is what we have so far. You...

Might have been them but she doesn't know for sure... this often happens when an oder is placed on line and you forget to un-check that little box that grants permission to add your name to receive other offers, and often that box appears more than once during the check out process, so you need to keep an eye out for it on each page... once you set this feature in motion it's nearly impossible to stop, because the mail order company rep you speak to by phone has no way to access that information, because as soon as you click to complete your order your name and mailing address is instantly batch emailed to a zillion other mail order companys. And it matters not they don't have your correct name, obviously all they need is your correct mailing address, and obviously if you're receiveing the catalogs they do. And btw, this can also occur because most of the major carriers (other than the USPS) also harvest addies to sell to marketing companys, and often they're not actually sold directly, it's a reciprical accomodation for using that particular carrier, of course at discount.

Sunnyside up eggs question 7760
You'll probably find that many cannot agree on what is a sunny side up egg- purists might say the white needs to be runny near and above the yolk others might say basted...

Anyway, I think Harry & David suck (probably both figuratively and literally). I can buy just as good produce (if not better) at the local market at about 1-10 the price... I often receive their products as gifts. My dentist sends all his customers a box of their pears every Christmas, those pears are very ordinary, not even ripe, they're hard as rocks, gotta let em ripen same as any others... and I kinda feel uncomfortable eating pears what cost $36-doz + shipping.

I make a lot of mail order purchases. I know they pbutt my name to other mail order companys, even though they claim they don't. But I really don't give a rat's B-hind. Some of the catalogs I'd otherwise not receive I find interesting. What I do to stop those catalogs I don't want from continuing is to wait until a few weeks past Christmas and then call the individual catalog companys and ask that they remove my name, they always do. I don't try to figure out who set the ball in motion, they can't do anything anyway... gotta call the company direct whose catalog you need to stop.

Milk stays colder in glbutt bottles
There are a lot of effects going on here. The basic, most significant effect is that, if they've both sat in the refrigerator (kept at a constant temperature) long enough, they'll...

In fact when I moved I needed to do the same thing in reverse, I made up a list of all catalogs I wanted and then called them all to give them my new address... actually I simply created a file to place the center insert with all the contact info from each catalog.

Btw, whenever you discard a catalog make sure to shred the portion with your name and address, including that center insert... today's catalogs often contain a customer number too... a word to the wise.
