Ready to save money?

Well, the 2009 season is approaching quickly and the time to save money for then is NOW. That's right, now.

You should consider asking your retail packaging sales representatives for quotes for the 2009 season now based on your 2008 usage. You ask, Why?

Well its common knowledge that prices always go up as of the first of the year, right? If you get your pricing now and commit to your orders now, in most cases, you get the 2008 pricing and you can request the product to be shipped in 2009.

Example,

Last year, a very good plastic bag user of mine asked for a quote in September. He uses three sizes of plastic bags. To manufacturer plastic bags the minimums can be high but the lower costs per piece make in worth your wild to purchase in bulk. We was required to purchase a total of 9,000 bags. After providing him with two options for delivery and pricing we accepted one being manufactured in China. We placed the order in November and we asked for a May 2008 delivery date. My customer received his bags the first week of May and received a summer dating invoice program so he isn't paying for bags until next week, September 8th!


Savings are available on all types of packaging products. An example is my customers that use gift boxes place their Christmas gift box orders in August or September and include enough inventory to get them through the first quarter. All types of stock products can be purchased in advance as well. Gift Box Corporation, Bags and Bows, Nashville Wraps and others all produce a new catalog at the start of each year. With new catalogs come new prices. Order your product prior to the new catalogs and get last year pricing. Don't forget to ask for a ship date that works for you.

So savings are available this year for next! Call your sales representative today and ask for quotes. Gift Box Corporation has sales representatives through out the US, Puerto Rico, the Carribean and Europe. Of course I am partial to them since I work for them but I also purchased their product for years. I know first hand the quality and service they provide. Their number is 800-443-8269.

Call today to save for next year.
