Okay, so I apologize to everyone who I originally accused of being full of sh*t. I wasn't trying to hurt anyone's feelings of course, but when a bunch of people started saying "I get blow pops from WHCC ALL THE TIME!" I was like "yeah right... lol"
Well, I ordered my 4.5x5" flat promo cards from WHCC the other day, and UPS showed up this morning with the box... I opened it and WHOA, there were two pops... a tootsie and a blow pop. Without disturbing any of the box's contents, I took a photo of the just-opened box, not only to prove myself wrong, but to show everyone how FREAKIN great WHCC is!!!
Oh, and the promo cards are cool too. More on those later.

What a pile of crap. I think I'm officially the only person to never get one. I placed an $800+ order not too long ago... got it today... nothing.

HMMMMMMM very interesting!!! It's a conspiracy Melody! Trevor I think you need to show us those cards. What kind of pictures are you printing that are good enough to get treats??????????

June 27 2007, 07:04 PM
well, thats why i thought everyone was full of crap too. i've been with WHCC for over a year now, and never saw a HINT of a blow pop (i mean, not even a wrapper! come on guys!) but sure enough....
oh well.
on a side and completely unrelated note... there are ants all over my desk that i must attend to! talk to y'all soon.

Until today, I thought the blow pops thing was just a weird OSP inside joke to make people jealous. But, for sure, I received two today with my book order (two guestbooks). I was like "WHAT??? It's real???" Sorry I doubted you all.
Or, Melody.... I'm I just part of the conspiracy to trick you? Hmmm....

I have yet to see blowpops from WHCC... But then again, I just joined 3 weeks ago!

Bwahahahah!!
I think it helps if you hit on them in the "special comments" section of your order...
We order a-buncho' from WHCC, (About $17,500 per year) and we only get pops about once or twice a month. My friend who used to process orders there tells me that it just depends on who processes the order. Some write poems, some give lolly pops!

I love it when "Shannon" quality checks my order (psst... because MY name is Shannon too). I'd rather have a Blow Pop.

Don't feel bad Melody.

Maybe we should picket outside of WHCC and demand our pops!

June 28 2007, 09:01 AM
I've decided that I'm now on a mission to get a freaking lollypop. I WILL have one, damnit! I've been with them for almost THREE YEARS. I can't even fathom how much money I've sent them and I HAVE NO SUCKERS!
I am going to do an entire "give me my sucker" session and send it there to be printed. If they don't get the hint from that then I guess I'll never get a sucker.
On the flip side... Carey & I were always so disappointed that we never got suckers that every time I send her something I dump 2-3 bags of suckers in the box as "packaging material". Guess what I get in packages from her? NO SUCKERS.
I'm on the sucker blacklist.

melody -
i only get them with stuff that comes in a box, not the flat packers for prints. i get them with the new press printed books, and i got them in a box with some press printed cards (which are gorgeous!)
they also sent me a lot more cards than i ordered - i ordered 3 sets of 25, and the printed extras of each one. i like this better than suckers.

Melody, you should place a fake order and do a video of the package being delivered, you run to meet the driver, tear it open, !!no suckers!! then destroy the package and contents right in front of the driver. It would be worth the laughs

Maybe someone should just send Melody some suckers before she goes postal and she's on the 10 o'clock news crying "Where's the love White House? Where's the love?"
I'll be getting my new business cards on Tuesday, so I'll keep my fingers crossed. If not I'll run down to the corner store where they are only 10 cents each. Watermelon is my favorite. Yummy! Ok. Now I really want one.

This is just hillarious! Melody is blacklisted for suckers...... hahhaha! See I get them in most of my press orders, but not all of them. I wonder if they realize all the jealousy they have created!!! hahah! I think all of us should get Melody's address and each send her a bag of Blowpops or Tootsie pops or dum-dums. You'd have so many suckers you'd never want one ever again! ahhahaahah

I haven't gotten any suckers either, but I just started using them. Everything I ordered came flat & long, no cute little box.
I want suckers too, but we should all send some to Melody - show her some love.

I'm going to start putting suckers in my client packages, randomly.
No wait, on second thought, I'll put one sucker in every package, no wait, one sucker per family member in the package . . . so nobody feels left out.
And so that people don't start trashing me on some forum somewhere!
