Only 2 shipping weeks until Christmas!

The commercialization of Christmas forces the season to start earlier each year – the dreaded Christmas creep. We tend to become rather numb to it all, tuning out a lot of it. Then, before you know it, Christmas is just around the corner! Rather than add to the deafening din and barrage you with messages, we’re sending this one to remind you that there are only 2 weeks of shipping left… You should order very soon. (Don’t forget to review the ordering deadlines for your area to avoid expensive expedited shipping.)

We’ve heard from some of you about the absence of a Black Friday/Small Business Saturday/Cyber Monday sale this year. Our philosophy on sales has been that we don’t like inflating our prices to gain the ability to create fake discounts. The discounts we offer have a legitimate basis. This works against us in many ways and there is significant pressure to succumb to discount marketing, but it’s not how we prefer to operate.
Here are a few other things worth noting:
  • Quantity discounts are always available – the more you get in each shipment, the higher the percentage discount.
  • A special Gift-Giver Bundle is always available at a significant discount.
  • This season there is a limited supply. You may have caught mention that our founder and key employee, John Sr., was in the hospital for 3 weeks this fall. Although his symptoms are mostly alleviated and he’s back to work (thanks for all the prayers), his underlying illness remains largely unimproved (your continued prayers are appreciated). This set us back on our production schedule and we simply won’t be able to make as many Bubba Rolls this season.
  • Our costs – ingredients (especially walnuts), materials, labor, insurance, taxes, etc. – all continue to rise. Rather than increase prices, we opted not to have a sale.
We hope you can escape the numbness brought about by Christmas creep and find a way to cherish what matters this holiday season. Maybe taking the time for a cup of coffee/tea and a slice (or two!) of
Bubba Roll with someone special can help you – or someone you know – do just that.

Wishing you and yours a very Merry Christmas!
