Is anyone coming to Bonaire this weekend or next who has room for a couple of pounds (anywhere from one pound to 5 pounds is fine) of Starbucks Coffee? If you will buy it and pay for it, just bring the receipt by the RE/MAX Office and I will reimburse you for the costs, plus your first beer at Paradise Moon is on me.
My favorite "flavors" are Guatemala, Kenya or the new Tribute Blend. I prefer whole bean so I can grind it myself. My office and myself are addicted to Starbucks coffee and you can't buy it here.
Let me know if you are bringing it so I don't end up getting twenty pounds all at once.
Thanks for your help.

Sandy -
Yes i still need it. If you don't mind bringing it, that would be great. I'll happily reimburse you when you bring it by the office, or I can come pick it up.

Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Bob:
We got you covered! Two pounds/Gautemala; Two pounds/Kenya/One pound/Tribute blend.
We arrive on Delta/ this Sat. afternoon.
Staying at Buddy Dive.
Since it is Easter weekend, perhaps, it would be easier for you if you let me know what day you will pick up the coffee and I will leave it at the front desk of Buddy Dive with your name on it.
Are you OK with that?
We leave, early in the morning(friday) for Atlanta, (overnight) then onto Bonaire on Sat. So~~~~if possible, let me know before we leave in the morning what day you will pick up the coffee.

Bob:
We will leave the coffee at the front desk of Buddy Dive on Saturday/should have it up there by no later than 5:00PM/
Cost was $60.00. However; rather than give the money to me, I kindly request that you make a donation, in that amount, to the Donkey Sanctuary.
Thank you.
Sandy

Sandy and Linda and Ralph -

Thanks a lot!!! I'll make that donation to the Donkey Sanctuary next week for sure. It is a very nice gesture.

You've made me, my office and Ruth very happy.

Yes Ruth, I'll even share. We'll let Michael keep all of the Folgers for himself. :-)

This is the kind of thing that makes BT'ers so great.

Did not realize you wanted someone to bring you Folgers Red Pak.

Happy dance happy dance happy dance!

Thanks for sharing Bob, and thanks to the Starbucks "mules" Ralph, Linda & Sandy!

(Michael, just saw lots of Folgers at Warehouse-you've finally trained the island to accommodate you...now work on the Starbucks and/or Dunkin Donut Dark Roast Coffee supply chain!)

It sounds as though Michael has 'trained' enough people on the island to make carrying Folger's Red worthwhile for Warehouse! Now Bob and Ruth need to expand the base for Starbucks and DD. :–)
