Hmmm ... good thoughts.
This is what I have decided:
* If I get 11 orders by Saturday, April 11 I will do a drawing.
* One person gets 10 percent off their order
* One person gets 10 percent off one item.
* One person gets a prize (a past season's season's best)
* And the grand prize winer gets an item for 40 percent off.
Since it is kit enhancement month I can order it that way and not lose money ... or I can just toss it on a host's order and eat the other 20 percent so I still get commission on it.
