Another Favorite Thing…and a Christmas Present Solution!

December 22, 2007 by Auntie Kate of Too Good to be Threw

Hey Spouses of Resalers across the world… I bet you haven’t come up with a Christmas present that will make your honey happier EVERY day of the year yet, have you?

And you’re running out of time. Well, here’s a gift that will save your umm, rear end, just in time!

A gel mat might save your relationship. It’s not cheap but believe me…it’s worth every penny. Your sweetie’s back and legs are KILLING her/him, every day. Imagine how much NICER your partner would be with tootsies and legs pampered by this mat behind the sales or take-in counter.

Why, she/he might even feel so tip-top when she/he gets home, she/he might cook you a lovely dinner complete with all the fixin’s. (It’s a known fact that families of resalers don’t get home-cooked meals near enough.)

And just think: this gel mat COULD save you the bill for a knee or hip replacement which  might be needed a few decades from now, from all that standing making a fortune in the shop!

(Resalers: print out this page and wrap it around the remote control this evening…then don’t be surprised if he/she says, tomorrow morning, “Uh, honey, I have an errand to run…”)

    Now wouldn’t that be nice right at the register, where I spend more time than at the stove! That’s by choice though. Very cool. Is this on your list Kate or do you have one?
