i think most of you know i am opening up a b&m british & american shop with foods and english language books (mostly kid books)... weeeellllll, i am supposed to open on THIS saturday morning and wouldnt you know it? my 2 big deliveries were delayed and didnt arrive until mon & tuesday. i have to price and put german-translation labels on ALL food products. umm, i had a total of around 5,600 individual items delivered needless to say i am in prioritize mode and only doing the things i will have on the shelves at the moment and not back stock
soooooo
monday's delivery of 3 full pallets -- not all of it fit in the picture, but here is a sample shot:
then tuesday i got another 2 full pallets, again, just an idea:
i have worked my tail off the last 2.5 days and am now at this point. not quite done, still have to add as many labels as possible tomorrow, but getting there

Oh my Michi! That is a lot to do...get your kiddos on the payroll! I'm sure they're a big help already though.
Good luck with your opening...maybe you'll make it through the first couple of days with just the shelved product. _________________ Alicia

joyce, i have a friend who was living in or around dripping springs helping me
kate, no little debbie, sorry! the best before date has to be at least 6 months and honestly, i am not sure if my distributor even carries them, lol.
thanks everyone. looking at another 12 hour day today getting things moved around and getting as many labels attached as possible. i am so tired and ready to collapse, but will save that fun for sunday  _________________ my name is bond, my name is bond. james bond, james bond
