Ice Cream Dippers flying off the shelves here in the North East Heat Wave!!! :D
 
I think companies are keeping less inventory in an effort to keep costs down. I see it everywhere.
 
Carolyn, I really like your signature but you've left a few important things out of it. Such as: Spiritual Adviser and Mother Confessor to Dave Barton aka RMDave.
 
I say for Ice Cream Scoops - its that time of year! If consultants are doing Coldstone demo's, I'm sure they are selling the dippers like crazy! ANd as listed above...I'd like to live in a tub of ice cream right now with the heat wave in the NE. Pennsylvania is not meant to be 100 degree's!

I didn't forget it. Some things are etched into my brain and I can't rid myself of them no matter how hard I knock my skull into the wall.

I've never done one of these, but they sound like so much fun!

And our ice cream dipper is the absolute best of them all, so I'm not surprised at a temporary supply issue. It's so odd to see people pulling their ice cream out the freezer and letting it soften ahead of time so that they can scoop it out... if they only had one of our dippers, they'd never need to worry about that again!
 
I talked to HO today and they said the ice cream dippers are due back in stock on July 27th! :)
 
Yes it even says that on the website if your customers go to order one!
