I need HELP form anyone in Rockford, Illinois! |
|
I need pizza from Lino's pizza in Rockford, Il.
Not just a pizza but about 2 dozen of them. We had some shipped to us several months ago and we were'nt satisfied with shipping over night, we got soggy pizza. But same day delivery should be beter.
So what we are offering is...
I will pick you up from the airport, you can stay at our beach side home for a couple of days and I will take you back to the airport. Plus I will feed you while you are here and show you around. Santa Barbara, CA.
We have 2 cats and a dog, so if you have allergies, come prepared.
You will have to go to Lino's and pick up pizzas and pack them for air travel. They will be frozen solid when you pick them up. They will be bulky, so you must be physically able to handle them.
Any serious proposals will be considered.

10. You keep me in mind if you feel like doing a little travelling. |
|
It looks like quite a drive from where you are to rockford. :hi: I am trying to do this as easy for everyone as possible. But if you have the time and energy, you may be my guest. I know you have a family to consider as well.

Are you buying an airline ticket for the pizzas or will they be going into the cargo section of the airplane? What does the pizza taste like?

11. I imagine some of the pizza will go as cargo and |
|
some as carry on baggage. As for the taste of the pizza, I just don't have the words to describe. Other than "worth it".

14. what, no dry ice in Rockford ? |
|
Get the type containers that they ship frozen meat in and have someone pick up the pizzas and pack them in dry ice and ship them overnight. They should arrive still stiff as, well quite frozen.

my husband is a information systems architect, and our home network is always in need of work. He has created a wood shop in our shed and has taken to building stuff out there. Oh, what he would do for that 20+ year old oak. :) So until we get to meet, we can just chat here.

16. It cost us alot of money to overnite 5 small pizzas. |

Edited on Sun Jul-24-05 11:33 PM by Lilyhoney
There are restrictions on using dry ice. And it is the weight of it and how much we would need. It will cost the same price as a plane ticket. We are looking for a frozen foods shipping service. But have'nt found what we need yet. Thank you for your suggestion. If you know of someplace specific please let me know, I'll save you a piece of pie.
On edit to form coherent sentence.
