  1. When I got started I had a HP deskjet and printing so many labels it died a horrific death from overuse. I went to CompUSA and a salesman showed me an Epson deskjet that uses Durabrite ink. 3 printers later it's still an Epson with Durabrite ink. This ink will NOT come off in water, not a bit. I clean my tester jars in hot soapy water and have to scrub the labels off with a brillo pad and the ink is the same as the day I printed it. Now the Epson photo printers do not use the Durabrite ink, I had to buy a printer in Dec. and the salesman there was pushing the photo printers. So, I dipped the print page from a photo printer in the water jug they had on the floor showing how Durabrite ink will not run. It was a mess. I bought the CX4200 that is a copier, printer and scanner for $89. Just look for the Durabrite label on the printer, it is worth it!
  2. Seems that it would be taking a extremely high risk to use any type of candle as a therapy. Has the FDA approved using these types of candles on people? The amount of FO for a candle is way over the amount used in lotion, another risk to sensitive skin there, especially children's skin. Burning the wick, leaves contaminates in the wax, and if any UV or dye is added to the candle, those probably aren't good for the skin too. Do you want to take that risk? I sure the heck wouldn't. It's a gimmick that I pray gets stopped before long when people stop to think what they are putting on their skin. Use massage oil or buy skin products.
  3. To Wildangel112: We were at the same show you were and we did very well there that day too. Untruths are not becoming to you.
  4. Sounds like the same run around I got from both stores. And the managers I talked to didn't have the "time" to even take notice of my orders or displeasure. I am like you and will not rely on Walmart for jars in mass amounts. :rolleyes2
  5. I tried for 2 months to get 100 cases of 1/2 pints wide mouths from my local Walmart. The order was canceled several times by different managers or the buyers for the region since it was a off season item to them. This was even after the housewares manager kept putting on the order it was a special order...She then told me to go the Walmart in another local town as it was the distributing store in the area and the biggest. So off I went to that store and placed the order in early September, which then was canceled by the managers, buyers, etc. Finally the cases came in on Dec. 18..after all my major shows had passed. I was desperate for them before that date. :rolleyes2 I wouldn't depend on Walmart order jars in for you, unless you have another source and can wait for them. I got square mason jars out of state and for much cheaper.
