Paid my difference!

Bill, are you planning to be around on Saturday for hops pickup?

 

[bmason1623]

Bill, are you planning to be around on Saturday for hops pickup?

Yes, but for a short while. Maybe a couple of hours only.

 

[RacingRam]

Bill, two questions:

(1) How do we get an address/directions? Would you be able to put it in the shared Google doc or on the group buy database?

(2) What is the best way to coordinate pickup times with you? I'm planning on coming down Thursday, but I can adjust my schedule to your convenience.

Thanks!

Bill what is a good time/day for pick-up? No rush, thanks again.

I am available to pick up on Wednesday after 3:00. The rest of the week sucks until Saturday. I may be able to convince my wife to cover kid chauffeur duty on Friday though.

It would be good to know what pickup days/times work best. And location of course.

I work in the ravenswood/Lincoln square area and could probably pick up hops for those northside people who have schedule problems. You'd then pick up from me at work or we could work something else out.

I live just north of ravenswood. If I can't make it there I will definitely take you up on that. And vice versa too.

 

[bmason1623]

Let us separate and package everything then we can figure out the timing of the pick ups. I will keep everyone posted.

I am in the vicinity of Cicero and Grand Aves...

 

[starman]

For trip planning purposes Bill's shop is roughly Cicero & Armitage .

I can ferry for anyone in the NW burbs (rt 53 & rt 14) but it'll be tough for me to be around my house at a decent hour till Saturday. Sunday is also pretty shot due to Q's big one year bash.

OK here is my updated list of folks whose hops I am bringing out to the Naperville area.

Thanks Matt.

Ha, I thought this area sounded familiar. Bill I bought some corny kegs from you off Craigslist in April and came to your shop to get them. Small world!

 

[ghoti]

Here is my current pick up list. Let me know if there are anyone I left off, or should not pick up. If I don't hear anything then your hops will be in Naperville.

Bill-

I noticed that the spreadsheet no longer lists the difference between what I (over)paid and what was owed (ahtanum) got cancelled.

Was the difference returned via paypal, or will you be distributing cash?

Ghoti will be picking up for me, so I wanted to know ahead of time.

Thanks!

[mikescooling]
