Also, today is the LAST DAY to get my 10% off discount on co-op advertising for spring!  Our members have given the co-op rave reviews! Here are a few things people have said:

“I’ve had a lot of traffic, new people signing up for my email list and quite a few sales from the holiday promo, so thanks! Co-op advertising has been successful for me.”
