My Sticker Arrived!
Thursday, September 13, 2007
My sticker finally came in! Yay! It was hiding in the mailbox this afternoon and my husband retrieved it on his way home. So here are a few pictures.. and I must say, the sticker looks FABULOUS. Even if you aren't looking to buy a Kimi's Kustoms Bumper Sticker, definitely look into getting a sticker from CafePress of some sort (especially from me..lol). It looks great!
Here is the package before I opened it (sorry y'all..I know you want badly to stalk me, but I edited out our address).

Of course my husband had to be annoying, take the camera and snap a picture of me opening it. Bleh.

Here is the sticker itself!!!

And here is the sticker again, Sorry it's on our living room floor. The sticker is slightly glossy to protect the print (it's a bumper sticker after all). So, it's a little hard to take a picture of.

Still Waiting On My Sticker
Wednesday, September 12, 2007
I have to say that I'm a bit disappointed in both UPS and USPS. My bumper sticker was shipped out on Saturday, September 8th and I have yet to receive it. I realize that mail doesn't run on Sunday, but my sticker has been sitting in Atlanta, GA for two days now - according to the package tracking anyways. Atlanta is literally 2 hours from here. I could have driven there and picked up the sticker myself by now - and at least used it on the car and gained a bit of "publicity" on the way home.
Since the tracking claimed the sticker was in Atlanta on September 10th, I half expected it to arrive yesterday afternoon. When it did not, I assumed yet again that it would surely come today. Nope. Here I sit... bumper stickerless.
It's in no way CafePress' fault. I realize once it's out of their hands..then it's out of their hands. But the shipping set up they have, to be frank...blows. I'm not sure if this works for all packaging from them, but they hand the package to UPS who in turn, hands it to USPS. I'm not sure why that is, as UPS delivers directly to my home - has been in the year and a half I've lived here.
I had really hoped to update y'all with pictures of the packaging, and to report a better experience...but so much for that. This isn't necessarily a negative experience..I was just hoping for something a little better. Oh well - ya can't win them all. Tomorrow I will hopefully give an update!

Bumper Sticker
I'm always looking for another way to advertise my store. There seem to be only so many ways to do so without spamming. Another shopkeeper on the CafePress forums, suggested a bumper sticker. I mean, that's what they are for right? My husband isn't real into the idea. I don't think he wants my website URL all over his car. Well, tough noogies. lol
I made a bumper sticker tonight - finally. I like it, and am anxious to get it in the mail. I've yet to order anything from myself, so this will be a learning experience for me. If it looks as good in print as it does on my computer, I'm thinking of buying a few for family members and seeing if I can convince them to stick it on their cars. Heehee
Anywhoooo if anyone reading this is interested, the bumper sticker can be found
Here!
