FRENZY details!

hi all!
well, it's official!
we're having ourselves a Trading FRENZY!!!!

what is a Frenzy, you ask? it's the same as a trade and stay, except it's only limited to a short, limited time!!!! hence... the trading will be even faster and more frenzied!

here are the details:

where: in the Promotions forum - raevyn will start the thread and send the location to everyone via ning.when: sunday, october 25th, 2009

time: 12 noon to midnight EST

how can you get on the start list? CONVO - and only convo - muffintopdesigns with "frenzy" in the subject line. indicate your shop(s) url and what you sell. (i.e. http://muffintopdesigns.etsy.com - jewelry ) that way it will be easier to keep us organized! i'll be taking the first TEN shops only!!!!

are you ready? you only have 2 1/2 days to stock up your shop!!!! :) if you have any questions, let me or raevyn77 know!!! yay for the FRENZY!!!!

Anyone Up for a FRENZY?


yeah, we're addicted. we were chatting on the forum thread today and the idea of a trade frenzy before the next TnS came up.

go vote on the sidebar for the day that works best for you - i think we might only go 12 hours this time... just to make it a little more interesting!!!!!!!
whoot whoot!!!!!!! GO VOTE!

Bye Bye Google Emails!

how far we've come since our early days as newbie tradeaholics! we are now fabulously organized, thanks to raevyn, over on our ning site! plus, there are almost 100 people who haven't confirmed their google membership, so it's pretty obvious that ning is the way to go!

this means that i'll be closing down our google group, where our mailing list was. any group messages will now be sent through ning, so make sure that your email address is accurate over there. i've sent notifications via ning and google, so hopefully everyone will be informed. i apologize in advance to anyone who uses the google emails to keep in touch, but this is going to be way easier for raevyn and myself.

anyhoo... thanks again for putting up with us while we try to make things easier and more streamlined for everyone! :)
