ok, I have been mulling this over and have to open this up to you guys.

as most of you know, I bought a house at Thanksgiving, and my financial situation is a little off kilter right now.

what does this mean? I'm not sure I can afford to do the nats.
I think I will probably manage about half the cash I need between recent donations and other planned income, but I need to have enough cash to get home again, as well as to buy hot dogs for the meet and greet...

Normally, I'm putting away money every month to cover all of this, but this year, all that money is going into savings to buy firewood so I can stay warm next winter! Firewood has to be paid for by June/July. next year this shouldn't be an issue, as I will have more time to save.

there are so many reasons I really SHOULD go, but the almighty $$$ is a powerful reason under the "shouldn't go" column. (the only reason)

I have stickers to sell still! and am adding a page for shirts! (as soon as I figure out the whole inventory and shipping thing in PayPal!)

If you want to see a virtual nats happen, or hot dogs and beer at the meet and greet, I need your help!

my van is pretty full usually when I head to the nats... so unless I can find a small person with minimal gear that wants to follow my travel schedule...

ShirtS - Tell me which one and what size, I tell you how much and you can send a check or paypal... trying to set up a paypal shopping cart for this is a PITA!

shirts are 12.50 for S-XL
2X and 3X are $15.00

shipping for a single S-XL shirt is $6.00 - I can fit them in a flat rate envelope!

Larger sizes or multiple shirts, Shipping is $12.00 for up to 3 shirts, if you want to buy more than three, let me know, I have to see how many I can fit in a box!

I'f I can manage to successfully get larger shirts folded in a way they will fit int he flat rate envelope, I'll update the shipping.

  • Black #1 Limited quantities, M and 2XL are sold out

I know the feeling...I'll be missing my first nats this year other than the first one! What really sucks is it is only 75 miles from home. The 1500 a week pay cut and gas prices have completely kicked me everywhere you can imagine that really hurts! Wish I could help ya, but am selling stuff to avoid homelessness...
