Hello all,
What seems like forever has finally come to an end... I received the jugs on Friday.
It took a while to get everyone's colors, but more importantly they ran into some manufacturing issues with the caps. They ended up breaking some dies, which put production behind, or at least that's what they told me. Either way, they're finally here.
For those of you who ordered the Ripper Cap, those are shipping to me this coming week. The good news is your jugs already have the Auto Stop hose installed, so you'll end up with both nozzles. Once the Ripper Caps arrive, we'll make arrangements to get those to you.
The original plan was to have everything before Father's Day. Several of you were going to be at Cam's Acres, and I was planning to bring them there, but unfortunately that didn't happen.
Now we just need to come up with a plan to get everyone their jugs. I live in Fort Smith, but I'd like to pick a meeting spot somewhere in Northwest Arkansas so I can hand them out. I'd prefer to do it after work during the week or sometime on the weekend.
If enough of you want to pick them up today, I can make a trip up around 6:00–7:00 PM. Otherwise, we can plan for the same time one evening this week. I'd just like to make as few trips as possible.
Final cost:
• 5 Gallon: $39
• 2.5 Gallon: $32
Let me know what works best for everyone.
