New Year, New Items and of course New Shipping Rates

Welcome to the new year, Yea!!! We have lots of plans to add new items and categories to meet your needs. First of all though is the changes that need to be made because of USPS. Like past years we are seeing an increase in postage costs across the board that went into effect January 26th.

One of the big changes actually happened last year but I absorbed most of it. First class mail was changed, to go along with other postage, to zoned rates instead of a flat rate. Most of the sales here are decals which we ship first class in order to provide you with tracking and other benefits, instead of throwing in an envelope with a stamp.

I could go to calculated shipping for the decals but this would cause you to pay for shipping for every decal and I like, and im sure you do as well, offering all the decals you want for a flat rate. So yes I am going to continue that practice but need to find a rate that is in the middle for all zones rather than increasing prices on decals and making up the cost that way. For now I am going to try $3.35 flat rate on decals and see how that holds up but may have to increase this in the near future.

I am looking in to other options that may decrease shipping rates on all items and if one is found to be viable I will offer it as an option.

As always I appreciate each and every one of you that chooses to purchase from my shop

Thanks

New Shipping Choices! Holiday Schedule and Gift Certificates.

New Shipping OptionsHoliday season is upon us and its time to get shopping.

So along those lines we have been working on the site to make it easier to find what you want and get it to you when you need it. For all Vinyl Decals and Water Bottles that are done in house we have added Priority USPS shipping option along with the regular First Class. For all other products that we have printed elsewhere we have added a new shipping calculator so the shipping is based on the items weight and your location instead of a flat rate (saving you money). Along with calculate shipping we have added more options such as FedEx, Priority USPS and FedEx Overnight. All these options should come in handy for you last min shoppers.

But don’t wait to long. All items in ours shop are created on demand when ordered and with the Christmas season demand goes up so lead times get longer. If you check our Holiday Schedule page we try to keep it updated to what the lead time is for products. We also have USPS and FedEx’s shipping deadlines for all shipping methods. So please keep both in mind when you order for Christmas.

Don’t know exactly what that someone special wants? We will soon have our gift certificate program up where you can purchase a gift certificate in any amount to put under the tree and avoid all the shipping rush.

Newsletter Giveaways

Hey everybody! We have had newsletter sign ups for awhile but never used it until now. Sent the first out today just warning everyone on the list that we will be sending them out now and giving everyone a chance to unsubscribe, although we hope you don’t. In fact we hope if you haven’t signed up yet that you will. Here are some of the benefits of subscribing.

New Products, We don’t want to spam you every time a new product is added (we try to put new items up daily) So we are going to try a weekly digest newsletter letting you know the new products posted during the week. This will only be once a week and only a particular day (haven’t decided yet)

Specials and Sales, Occasionally we will put a category of products, or even the whole site, on sale. In the past I have done that with no notification except a banner at the top of the site. So now I may occasionally send out a quick email letting you know a sale is happening! We do from time to time also have a give away for a particular product where we ask you to Facebook, tweet or share another way to enter and we of course also would like you to know about those.

Speaking of which we do have a giveaway going on here that expires midnight April 16th

Monthly Giveaway, We will be also having a monthly give away (starting May 1st) for a  $20 coupon good towards anything on the site. This is only for subscribers of our newsletter and you don’t have to do anything but be on the list to enter. Once a month we will draw a random subscriber and send them the coupon. Thats it!

So if you haven’t seen the pop up to subscribe yet (wait 15 seconds) then you can sign up here



New Server, Faster and More Secure!

Secure and Fast Vinyl Decal ShoppingThis past month I took some steps to make improvements to the site. One of the big changes was to move the site to a new server. This server is set up just for eCommerce sites like this using WordPress and is on all SSD drives. This should mean an increase in speed, so I hope you can breeze through your searches for the vinyl decal you wish.

The other improvement, which the site move help with tremendously, was to get a SSL certificate to secure the site. This means all the pages of the site serve up now on a HTTPS and are encrypted. So when you are browsing now you should see the little lock next to the address depending on how your browser is set up. Your surfing and information are now safe 🙂

I will be continuing to find ways to improve your shopping experience anyway I can
