Gentle Reader,
For many of many of you, you will recognize this campaign from last year. For our new friends, drop and give me 20 Fancy Pants!
Please note, last year’s efforts exceeded our expectations so this year we have increased our limits and hope you guys welt us up on this one. Here’s the deal…
We at JT’s Confections, with your help, would like to thank the good men and women who are currently serving, or have previously served, in the armed forces of the United States of America. These men and women are asked to perform duties that many of us are either unable or unwilling to perform. These duties ensure our freedom and safety.
To say THANK YOU we are offering the following:
For every one-pound box of mixed pecan caramel clusters and caramels you purchase, for whomever you want, we will provide a second one-pound box free provided that the second box is shipped to a veteran or an active duty member of the armed services. The only caveat is that you pay the shipping. Who’s better than you??
We are working on the honor system here folks. Having said that, names we will NOT be shipping to are:
- Colonel Klink
- Colonel Mustard
- Captain Kirk
- Captain Stubing
- Private Pyle
However, if you can with 100% good conscience provide me with a legitimate Captain Crunch, I will throw in a dozen chocolate covered Oreos® for the good Captain. He or she has endured enough hardship.
Although JT’s Confections is a virtual chocolate powerhouse within a 600 yard radius of our kitchen, we need to limit this to 150 orders (300 boxes) or a March 15th end date, whichever comes first.
To say “Thank you,” just go to JTsConfections.com and click on the American flag. If you’d like to say thank you but don’t know a veteran or active duty member of the military, we can send your box to a veteran or an active duty military person on your behalf.
Each box will contain a note that reads “The Tompkins family of Ithaca, NY, would like to thank you for your service to our country.” Of course if your last name is not Tompkins, and you are not from Ithaca, the note will be changed… dealing with a rough crowd here.
To ensure we hit out goal of 150 orders (300 boxes), PLEASE forward this message to anyone you feel would be appropriate.
As always, it’s been a pleasure.
Your Pal and Guide to a Parallel Universe,
JT
