No actually, we aren't sold out, and I really really want to be!!

There are a couple key reasons for wanting to sell out as fast as possible.

  1. it means we can give a big fat check to the MS Society! It doesn't make much sense for us to be sitting on all these mugs.

  2. The way we set this up, I can't recoup my expenses fully until we have sold about 175 of them. I was making sure that for each mug only $15 would go to recoup expenses and $25 would go to the MS Society. It's not like I am taking the first chunk of money to recoup my expenses and then whatever is sold after that goes to charity. We wanted to make sure that if we sold 10 only, the MS Society would make money. At least at this point, I am better than half paid back. But I don't make a lot of money so getting fully paid back (minus my own donation) would be nice!!

Will we eventually sell them all?

I am confident of it!

Mugs this cool won't last, especially limited edition ones!

but they also aren't cheap, which is the key reason they haven't all gone yet.

So please, buy the mug so we can present a nice big check to the MS Society!!
