The buttons and bumper stickers are all gone - need to reorder

[swag]

Prior to this week, I would be able to unload maybe a couple of Kerry or Kerry/Edwards buttons per week to people who would remark on mine (wait-staff, barristas, people on the street who would shout "Go Kerry!" as they saw me pass, etc.). I always kept a few in my pocket or briefcase for such occasions.

And I had mistakenly thought that my last order of 100 from kerrygear.com would last through the fall. Boy that was stupid. The pace of remarks and requests really picked up this week through the end of the DNC. Yesterday, I gave away 5 buttons, mostly to folks on the downtown streets, and I didn't even get outside for lunch, just worked straight through.

So it's time to get some more from the store.

People are so fucking jazzed when they admire your button (as the register operator did at Starbucks this morning) and you reach into your pocket to give them one.

1. handing out buttons

Yes, I do that all the time, but I buy mine from the meetup group, which makes lots of unique local buttons. You've made a "friend" for Kerry when you give away a button someone remarks on.
