Ya' hooked me, Mary - 6 pounds of Tangelo's on the way!
BB, if you have any problems with the fruit from the three I listed they will replace, there are times that it gets mishandled in shipping. Honeybells are a great hybrid of a mild grapefruit and the tangerine...easy to peel, larger than the tangerines and sweeter, you will not regret that choice. They are my second choice in flavor for oranges, behind the Pineapple oranges, which are getting more difficult to find, as they are not as popular due to the seed content. A seedless citrus has less than six seeds, and they never managed to get the pineapple to go 'seedless' so they are primarly used in juice.

Enjoy them!

FYI, they also had Temple Oranges in season with free shipping, but I took a pass this time. If the Tangelos go over well I may have to hurry more into the pipeline.

I called down to Cushman's to order today and the very nice lady said that there had been some ads put into magazines with codes in the ads but she couldn't give any shipping discount without the codes. Does that sound right, Mary? Anyone got one of the free shipping codes handy?

The nice lady I talked to looked and found the free shipping special for me. If you just mention Mary's name you get a 50% discount, that had me a little concerned :lol:

Maybe some of the photos Mary developed in a former life?

Jason,
I have the flyer for Cushman's at home, will post it later this evening, still dealing with a boss that is trying to push me into quality manger...after F*******it up for the last 1.5 years. Wants me to come in and correct it in 6 days before an audit.

Cushman's is about two hours south of me...so any photos from my former employment are not involved here...

Just noticed a banner ad at the bottom of the Clubhouse for Honeybells from Al's family farms! Google is on the job today!

Cushman's flyer is free shipping until the 26th...sorry I thought it was the 31st but the offer code is SSFB9.
They are a company that has picked up a lot of the shipping for the smaller family owned groves, and are based out of West Palm. They do at least replace bad fruit, sometimes isn't bad going out but gets caught in a frozen area for a while.

And Bob259....even the Department Director when he was saying that he is intending to put me in charge of quality stated that despite my bluntness in calling the shots, so far I have ended up calling them correctly. So go ahead, blackmail attempt away, I've had three floods on the property, don't even want to think about what photos I've lost, and of course I can't remember much, you know I'm getting older.

Thanks, Mary. It took that code but it didn't take the shipping off. It looks like it needed a key code or catalog code or something, too. I think I might be better off to try to calling again to see if I can be as charming as Bob was. :)

Jason,
You are perfectly capable of being at least as charming as both the Bob's..Blue Balls and 259 so try again and if they give you any problem call me.
