BANNED FOR NOT MAILING PRODUCTS PURCHASED | Is it just me? Question for store owners and buyers? With the way all the prices has gone up for gas, groceries and everyday living, it seems that all the YT sales have gone down? Is it just me or is others feel this way? |

Donating YT 500 Club Member | You're right, I've noticed too. Normally things listed in the For Sale section here sell very quickly....sometimes you had to be really fast with your buying or you would lose out. With gas and everything else getting more expensive people just don't have the extra $$ for things that aren't necessary. Hey Vee - I do need to order new labels, so you won't be idle for long!

| Missy, thank you for this thread. I thought it was just me! I sincerely hope that our economy improves -- we are all hurting. |

Part of why I do the labels and cards is for the extra $$ but the bigger part is because I really love doing them ...I feel lost when I have nothing pending but on the upside - I realize they aren't exactly hot sellers compared to clothes LOL | |

Donating YT 500 Club Member | Well....if the economy is slowing down, my DH would be the first to tell you - It's not MY fault! As I'm certainly doing my part to stimulate the economy GW would be proud of me.....and I'm mean GW Bush - not GW Little, although they are pleased with me too

| Sales have definitely slacked off. Its taking a lot longer for things to sale. Outside of food for myself and the dogs I haven't spent any money in the last month. Without a job, I'm barely getting by. Hopefully I'lll have a job soon, but I'm not even getting called for interviews for the jobs I've applied for. So many companies have had to downsize, that for those that do have open jobs they have the choice of more experience, older workers who have been let go from the companies having to downsize.

| You have to think too, some of the people may be saving their money right now for the big Yorkie meet-up this weekend. Things will probably look up after that too although the economy is the main reason! Just an idea.

| i think most items on yorkie talk are priced fairly. I also feel wth business down for most people it would be a bad time to increase prices. Many people are cutting out luxury items because gas and food are getting to be so expensive.
