    You are most heartily welcome, Kerri, and I am sure Why We Buy will get you thinking, plotting, and planning!

    Folks, if you didn’t win on THIS Wacky Wednesday, stay tuned…I have a couple more copies to give away, and a couple more books as well… every Wednesday, all you have to do is share a tidbit that you’re doing on that day’s subject, and you could win!

    Thanks Kate!!! I just got the book in the mail. I’ve looked for this book at my 2 local used bookstores a number of times, and they never have it, so I’m very happy to get it!!! Thanks!
