    Well, the UPS man brought me a package today. A little beat up, but
    for UPS that's to be expected.

    The inner box (surrounded by styrofoam peanuts) looked much better.
    Inside, there were 12 jars in perfect condition.

    "It tastes best, hands down, on hot, buttered toast made from my own
    homemade white bread."
    (a quote from the jar label, next to a picture of *our* Jam Lady!)

    I wouldn't know about that. One jar is empty. No bread (homemade or
    not) was in the house. No, I didn't eat it all (she said that she had
    a taste) (her "taste" couldn't have been much more than a tablespoon).

    Thanks, Barb, and thanks to Gedney and My Brands Inc. for making this
    possible.

    $4.83 each for 16.5 ounces delivered to my door is a great price for
    extra great preserves. Shoot, I've paid more than that for cheep-o
    store brands.

    BOB
    what to do with the next jar???

    Oh, oh, oh!!! Which one of Barb's is it? I now order her Cherry Berry
    by the dozen and really do hope there will be plenty again next season
    so I can order at least three dozen more.

    Ta muchly, Nancy. I take it that the only ones of Barb's are the cherry
    preserves and the peach raspberry. I can just make out her pic on the jar.
    I'd know those <ahem> cheeks anywhere :-)

    TammyM, wondering what the Gedney folks think of the explosion of orders for
    Schaller's jammies?

    12 jars Peach Raspberry $47.30
    Shipping 9.38
    Handling 1.25

    Total $57.93
    divided by 12 jars
    Equals 4.8275 rounded
    up to
    $ 4.83 per jar

    The 16.5 ounces is the 'Net Weight' of the contents. The jars make
    the total weight more.

    I'm happy with the price and I'm happy with the preserves (if I can
    keep the spoon out of the jars unless there is something else to go
    with the preserves).

    Peach Raspberry. After this, I'm sure a case of the Cherry Berry will
    be heading to Florida (soon!).

    This won't be the last order heading down to the Swamps. Maybe

    Heh heh. Yeah, mix it with *something*! I licked the spoon too many
    times. How many dessert spoonfuls are in one jar? Yep, that's about
    how many times I licked the spoon!

    Pach Raspberry Chipotle sauce for some smoked or BBQed meat this
    weekend sounds like a plan. I have a version of raspberry chipotle
    that can only be made better (IMO) with the peach raspberry...

    Kee-rect, the only Gedney products I have are the my two jams. AFA what

    forwarding the notes posted here about the availability and access.

    It's www.gedneypickle.com, Toots. Lower left, there's a link to order
    that will take you to mybrandsinc.com

    http://gedneypickle.com/; then link to
    http://www.mybrandsinc.com/ShopOnline/Catalog.asp?t=6&s=G&ss=GED; then
    to the middle column near the bottom,
    http://www.mybrandsinc.com/ShopOnline/Catalog.asp?t=6&s=G&ss=GED&p=3360
    for the Cherry; and right below the Cherry is the Peach Raspberry.
    http://www.mybrandsinc.com/ShopOnline/Catalog.asp?t=6&s=G&ss=GED&p=3353
    for the Peach Raspberry. Harumpph! The Peach Raspberry doesn't show
    the jar.

    Thanks for your patronage. I can't get rich without your help.

    Only if you buy it from me, Luv. That one's my homemade stuff. And I
    can't make it as cheaply as the commercial producers do, so be

    The royalty won't buy a stick of gum, much less the Disney Cinderella
    Palace or whatever in heck I've been "advised" about. I've just mailed
    the Gedney folks asking for info about how many jars have been ordered
    by my r.f.c. acquaintances. Must say I'm stunned by the interest --
    even though they ARE wonderful products! And when I think about it, $5
    or less for a jar (if you buy 12, I think) is a reasonable price for a
    pint jar. I sell my homemades for nearly or twice that, in a smaller
    jar, besides. :-/

    Hey, thinking about the costs of ready made - I was at a US grocery
    store over our Thanksgiving weekend. Mind you I'm used to canning my
    own & Canadian prices. They wanted $5.99 for a 500 ml jar of dilly
    beans! I could not believe it. I grow my own beans so a jar that size
    likely costs be about 5 cents to can, maybe a little more but you know
    what I mean.

    I'm just assuming that the run on the stuff is because of my mention
    (and subsequent others'😉 here. AFAIK, they haven't announced its online
    availability anywhere -- I think the new website is still under
    construction. I stumbled on it -- they didn't even tell us. . . . <rolls
