Can’t get away from the Democrats http://notanumbergifts.com/2014/10/cant-get-away-from-the-democrats/ Tue, 14 Oct 2014 06:47:49 +0000 http://notanumbergifts.com/?p=1001 We, like many of you, are currently being bombarded by emails from the Democrats. Some of us have even tried to get off the list. This is an actual amail sent to get off list, after first using the unsubcribe link. This email address continues to get emails from the Democrats.

——————

* this EXACTLY what i said when i tried to unsub 8/28 stupid DCC.ORG – final unsub, and why: “i’ve had it. have tried to get you, numerous times, to send less email. every damn day, and now from other Dems, and it’s too much. you Dems come off as whinier & whinier; if you would just take a pg from the Rs’ playbook you would get people like me (NOT a Dem) to rally behind you. i added “dccorg” to my last name so i’d know if you gave my address to others; yes you have. the straw that broke the camel’s back was today attempt at guilt-inducing. if you Dems spent a fraction of the time you spend whining & bugging for $$, on actual intelligent fighting for what’s right AND fighting back…. our govt would NOT be so screwed up, and MANY more would vote. C’mon, you idiots!! now GO AWAY.” “UNSUBSCRIBE CONFIRMATION The email address xxxxx@notanumberinc.com has been removed from all future mailings” RIIIIIIIIGHT.

Since WA State has strong anti-spam laws, we’re considering some kind of legal action just to rattle their cage, as enough is enough!

Many apologies to some of the people that we’ve dealt with on a consignment basis!

If you are one of those, and believe we still have some of your stuff, or owe you money, please contact us.

So long and thanks for all the fish!! http://notanumbergifts.com/2013/11/so-long-and-thanks-for-all-the-fish/ Fri, 29 Nov 2013 19:08:37 +0000 http://notanumbergifts.com/?p=858 Greetings all! We post after being offline for WAY TOO LONG!!! Our apologies to all of our faithful longtime customers and friends who have dropped by our lonely unopened store over the last year. As many of you read in our notes, we had been caregiving for the Head Cheese’s (HC) grandmother in Colorado. She was the sweetest soul on the planet! She passed away in April and the HC and I were left to tend to many of the affairs of the estate – what a pain! Anyway, we returned to Seattle in September looking towards what to to with the store (re-open?); however we took some time off to go to Burning Man (what a blast), and while we were coming back the HC slipped and broke her leg.

So to make a long story shorter, we are closing the store with a whimper, not a bang. Any of you who want to drop by today or tomorrow, we will be loading up stuff/packing etc. We’d love to see any/all of you. We will pop up again – the HC wants to do mobile retailing?! We also will be FINALLY getting some of our stuff online, and many of our books will be listed on Amazon. EVERYTHING IS ON SALE, including the fixtures and displays (PLEASE takes some of these off our hands!!)

We do really want to thank all of you for your patronage over the years!!!
