Just One More Coat
Its been raining here the last few days and the newspaper has arrived each morning wet. Its in a plastic bag with a rubber band so tell me how this thing is getting wet. I've called the paper and they of course bring me a new one. By that time its half way threw the day.

Yet I still don't get how a newspaper can get wet in a plastic bag :ticked

OK thanks for listening
 
LOL

no just bored with trying to read a wet paper!

You ever try and read/hold a wet newspaper?

Its close to impossible :ticked
 
Or the bag is getting torn when he throws it on your driveway? :dunno The bags they use here are really thin & just the abrasion of it skidding up the concrete driveway is enough to perforate it and allow water to penetrate.

On a side note, I found a great use for those bags this weekend. I always ended up with black hands and forearms after dressing the tires & wheelwells, so I slipped one of those over my hand & up my arm & I could still handle the applicator & when I was done, no black mess to clean up!:)
 
Good Idea Norah ...
Dave, I would mention it to the paper delivery person (when I was younger they were called paperboys) If it doesn't fix the problem and if you tip them at Christmas time.
I would just make sure the tip is soaking wet and in a plastic bag when you give it to them. :lmfao

I like your idea better!!!:rofl
 
paperboy / papergirl they both have a nice ring to them :drunk

However ours is a guy that blows by the house and wings the paper out of the window like a baseball pitcher throwing a fastball.


I did call the newspaper today and asked what they could do about it. Of course customer service said we will double bag yours, now I'm sure the paper guy is going to really love me.

See if the sun was out I'd be working on a car and not have time to worry/read the paper anyway.
 
Kim, no problem, actually it was kind of funny cuz WAY back then, paper delivery was pretty much an exclusively male field & my customers just didn't know what to call me!!:) But I sure cleaned up at "tip time"!:lol

I love your idea of the water soluble ink/cheque!!! :bigups

:lol He can sell it with the newspaper still in it and call it a Tire & Windows Detailing Kit. ;)
 
So, Dave, what did he say? :dunno
When do we get our first royalty cheque? :lol
I've already spent mine on other PB products!!! :bigscream
 
That looks great!! - I've got one of those too, so now we have an inventory of 2!! That should be easy to count at year end :lol
 
Here is the proto type that I started with. You can see that this could be big!! :rolling :rolling :rolling
 
Yes, but I like the "festive" holiday design!! Yes, it is "time-limited" in its appeal, but I think it really adds to the package. Maybe we could make some special ones for President's Day or Valentine's, then Easter, 4th of July etc.?:dunno

Still waiting for that first royalty cheque :eek

Uh-oh - you don't think Steve wrote IT with water-soluble ink, do you? :bigscream
