Hey, all!

I'm putting this here just because there's no 2010 Conference area yet.

I just finished a new button for us to identify each other at conference this year. Previous buttons had a large white area in the chef's hat for writing on usernames. This year's looks like a name badge, with an even larger area so that those with long usernames have more space.

You can order a single button, a pack of 10 (cluster-size pack!), or a single LARGE button.

It is available at this CafePress shop. Please note that I only set up the products in the shops. I do not control printing, shipping, or quality issues. I will not be ordering an inventory of buttons, so if you want one, you should use the link above and order directly from CafePress.

Other styles are still available:
The original "hat on cream" style is at this shop, along with shirts and other goodies.
A cranberry-colored version is at this shop.
And a red Director Chef Success version is at this shop.
 
Thanks Ann! I may get a new one so I can put my "name" on it then just pin the other one to my tote!
 
I hear one has been sold already!

LOL, KG! Maybe I'll write that on one and we can pass it around. :)

Since there seems to be some confusion, there's a link in the top post of this thread to the online shop.
 
Like the new button, Ann. I'm ordering one now. I'll wear both--probably with the new one on my shirt and the original on my bag. I'll copy from Jane this time. ;)

KG, you crack me up.

Thanks!Moronica called - she says, "Hi!"
 
I ordered mine. I am so exicted about this and look forward to meeting you all at NC.
 
What size is everyone buying? The 3.5 is a good size for writing your name, but pretty big, so I'd feel silly if I was the only one wearing it. The 2.25, though, is small enough to get lost among the badge and other stuff. Since it's only a $0.75 difference in price, the cost isn't a factor in the decision making - I just want to stand out, without standing out, you know?
 
I got the new 3.5, which is what I'll be wearing. I still have the old 2.25, and will probably put it on my NC bag.
 
I have the new 3.5 and love the idea of using the label maker to add my name. Added that to my to do list for this weekend
 
I just ordered my button - the 3.5". With standard shipping it's $5.00. If you give me your e-mail, I can have Cafepress send you a coupon for $5.00 off, which means you'll get the button free (and PC Consultants love FREE!). However, I don't know if there's a minimum order before the coupon can be used.

Thanks bunches!
 
I'm sorry, I just saw these posts. Once I closed that window, I wasn't able to get back to the page. If someone else places an order, maybe they can enter your e-mail addys.

Or, maybe I should buy something else - like the DCB thong at Sheila's store!

Yeah, I'm still wondering exactly how you would use that for marketing - and, what, exactly, your customers would think they were buying! (and, me in a thong is NOT a pretty thought)
 
I just ordered my button...see everyone on Monday!
 
How long did it take y'all to get your button. I just ordered mine (i'm late i know) and I'm hoping it gets here quick!

I ordered my button on 6/28 and it arrived last Friday, 7/2--not long at all.
