NEW SUBSCRIBER?: Visit THE COOKIE JAR SPOT. Just in case you've not been to The Cookie Jar Spot on About.com, it's the place to check out. Past articles, resources, fun stuff, dealer listings and lots of polls. In fact, I'd appreciate it if you took the time to vote in the polls.

CLASSIFIEDS: Many people realize that there is a cost of doing Business on the Internet, but in my case it's a case of NOT doing business. To help offset some of the costs of NOT doing business, e.g. this newsletter, article archives and website (The Cookie Jar Net), I've decided to start offering Paid classified ads. The cost is minimal, but should help cover the costs incurred.
For more information >>> Classifieds

TABLES ARE TURNED: On me! The current issue of Collectors Mart has a short article on ME! I was interviewed instead of me doing the interviewing! The issue shuld be available at the newstands any day now.

LINKS: I had a lot of fun playing around on the Internet the other night and came up with all sorts of cookie jar links, some are pretty cool, some are pretty strange -- but most of them are certainly worth a look.

BUSH-MCCOY?: It's a new company to me.... Bush-McCoy! Ruth, the ever-vigilant eBay watcher, spotted this one. If you're new to collecting, please be careful when dealing or shopping on eBay. I've heard too many sad stories of collectors that were "taken". There are numerous sources online-- use them.

KRISPY KREME $1. a Dozen. . . Yes, I know this is completely off topic, but since I KNOW so many of you love Krispy Kreme Donuts, I didn't think it would hurt to mention this here.

There really are Collegiate Bowling Teams and even though Oklahoma University can spends millons of dollars every year on athletics, they will not help out the school team. Well, they did get $40. last year from the school! So, the team is fundraising with Krispy Kreme Donut Cards. Buy a Dozen, Get a Dozen for $1. Find out more about the team and their fundraiser if you are interested in helping out:
