Subject: Trifold Shovel

I stopped at the Barre Army Navy Store to check on the folding shovel.  They didn’t have any in stock, but they showed me their catalogue. Here is the link to a trifold shovel.  It doesn’t give weight.  I’m going to call them tomorrow to find out.

I stopped in Friday to check on your folding shovels.  You had none, but one of your clerks showed me your website and the 839 delux trifold shovels looked interesting.  Later I went to your website to check on their weight.  That’s important for us to know since we will be taking them with us to Africa this summer.  There was no information on weight that I could find.

Please let me know how much they weigh.

Thanks, Carl

This shovel is 2.11 pounds, we called the manufacturer and they let us know. If you have any other questions, please feel free to give us a call.

Not too heavy.  Should we order any, and if so, how many?  Four, Six, Eight?

I think 6 would be enough but if others think more or less it is fine.
 
Can you bring extra wall o' waters so I can bring some to work to sell.  10 or 20 packages.  I am talking them up to my coworkers. (I am a saleswoman all the way).  Just put me on a street corner and they will be all gone.   I will get them from church as soon as I can get over there.  Maybe Wednesday.

Order and give the receipt to me and I will reimburse you through Missions Mobilization

Great! 

Now for the stunning news:  They are already ordered (6) and I got a call today they are in!  Now, I never ordered them, I just inquired about them; and especially, I never mentioned 6.  So it would seem somehow that this thing has been engineered by “outside” forces.  ;-)~
