Str8 2 U From Me Dishes & More sells MORE

So I am getting decent sales this week and I am ecstatic! I have had a definite increase, I hope due to my continued work on the site, as well as the additions that have been made in the categories. We are not thru yet. By the end of the summer, I expect to have well over 500 items just in dishware, along with over 100 books! This is in addition to taking wish list requests for certain long ago favorites that people are looking for, or just an in demand book that you may be wanting. I am also branching out my ads and trying to get as much visibility as I can to get the word out about us, so please pass us on if you know someone who is interested or if you think we have cool stuff! Thanks!!

STR8 2 U FROM ME DISHES & MORE HAS MORE!

So it has been a while since I updated about Str8 2 U From Me Dishes & More, but my store is actually doing well and getting a new department! We are now adding the "More" category and it is starting with BOOKS! I have 1000's of books and I have finally started getting them into the store! I have decided to wean myself off the "other" site and devote more time to Str8 2 U From Me Dishes & More. A cool thing we have implemented is pattern identification and the wish list. If you are looking for a pattern and do not know the name of it, simply send us an email with a detailed description of the color and the design and/or include a picture and we will see what we can do to help you name and locate your pattern! We try to have answer to you in 24-48 hours. I have had a few of these emails and the customers have been so grateful for this service! I am so excited about the changes and the new inventory that I have been and am adding.
Here are just some of the things we are offering:

• Discontinued dinnerware patterns (some current ones as well this is Corelle/Corningware/Pfaltzgraff & Pyrex)
• Discontinued replacement pieces (place pieces and accessory pieces)
• Pattern Identification
• Books- Current & Classics in Hardcover & Paperback- all genre's (we are also accepting wish lists for books you maybe looking for!)
• Games- Classic & Current Systems and games (My husband handle's this department and is currently gathering a ton of inventory for this, so stay tuned!)
• Clothing- New & Pre-Owned for the whole family, even formals!

I am so excited about the up and coming changes that we are making and hope you will check out our new endeavor, even if it is to drop us a line and tell us what you think!

Braces X 2!!!

So something I have been dreading for a while now has begun. BOTH of my children are in need of braces. I knew this day was coming, but I didnt want it to happen so fast! I cannot believe how much braces are and how little insurance covers.. After Insurance I am kicking out about 9K!!! Oucha bah-goucha! I can tell by looking that my oldest needs them, and I am thankful that we are starting now so he can be done with them (hopefully) by his senior year. He is not liking the pain so well and knowing what lies ahead, he definitely would opt out if he had a choice (WHICH HE DOES NOT!) He will be having teeth pulled and visits are almost bi-weekly at this stage (we are only at the beginning!) My youngest at first glance, has straight teeth. Well, the Dr. decided to take his impressions and those pesky X-rays, and blew that whole idea out the water. The poor child has teeth turning and his fronts will be a "V" if he doesnt get them now, so of course, he too is in the process of pain. After both children getting spacers, we now have anchors in for the baby and top braces and bands on the oldest, as well as anchors on the bottom for the oldest. Baby boy goes back Wednesday for his actual top & bottom braces so the milkshake train (along with his pudding & jello compartments) will be pulled into the station and hanging around for quite some time. I will keep you posted with pictures to follow. You will be amazed at my oldest sons before and (in a few months and years) after shots. The baby, not so much since they caught his early, but man them x-rays were enough to sell me!! Ok, so off to get my next post ready which is totally devoted to my store.

TTFN!
