customers asked him if he would do a vanilla sale as her daughter's cat had just knocked a full bottle of vanilla off the counter. So Bill agreed. His email today includes pictures of customers' cats and dogs wearing their Penzeys' "Choose Love" pet bandanas.

Many of us here at DU are dedicated Penzeys' customers (as I have been for almost 30 years)The orange creature hates them. He had a coronary (alas, not fatal) when Kamala visited one of their stores (google to watch that lovely video!)

If you subscribe to his email list (free!), you will find out about all their sales, almost always tied to current events, and Bill's commentary. For example, this past weekend was roughly the fourth anniversary of Bill's "About Republicans" letter. In honour of that, almost everything was 44% off. My order (so hard not to go crazy ordering!), will be arriving shortly. I love knowing that I am getting excellent products, and supporting an excellent business.
