I eat 3x a day (ok, 4x). So do my customers. I don't want them customers
buying my produce because it's a special event. I can't live off special.
My goal is to sell them all they need for 3-4 days of whatever it is I'm
selling. That can be done, conveniently for them, & for me, without me
being set-up to sell 7 days a week, all day. It can be done without
peddlers.
