Sales were bleak during October and the first week of November, but since November 6 (the election) business has been booming. At the rate we are currently going November may be our biggest month ever. At least some people aren't paying attention to the gloom and doom of the news media (and our elected representatives.)
I hear you Jeff. The day after the election people started coming back in the store and the phone was ringing again. I think we're through the worst of it for now. My suppliers say they have begun to pick back up again as well. Hopefully the trend will continue....

Duane, I'm really glad to hear that you and Simplyjeff are rebounding in this slow economic atmosphere. Sure would be nice for our country to feel hopeful again!
Still hard to say for sure, at least on my end. Lots more store traffic, and inquires, but folks are more gathering knowledge rather than actually purchasing. Still a good sign overall, but not out of the woods yet.
