Tiki Towel Watch...Monday...

So my pal Sergio at Del Bajio Trucking confirmed with me that the towels had made it through US Customs and were ready for pick up for the Port of LA. He's got a truck on the way. Great! However, my business partner just got off the phone with Big 5. They are very anxious about the towels making it to the stores in time for the L A Times AD the week of 5/18. My partner read them the Purchase Order and assured them we were delivering on time. (which we are). But, they are nervous, so they decided to push the AD. It seems like they will push it to the next week.
What does all that mean?
It means the towels will be hitting the stores, perhaps a week earlier than the ad goes in the paper - (that's when the towels go on sale for 50% off!) So, I'll be sure to keep you posted as to when the towels should be hitting the shelves. However, I can't actually tell exactly, cause I can't go check my local Big 5, BECAUSE.... we don't have a Big 5 on the Big Island! I may have to ask some of the LA TC ohana nicely to go check for me.

Big aloha from the Big Island!
