“I was thrilled to find these Watkins cups on The Salvation Army e-Thrift store website (Prince George) recently. Wasn’t sure how I was going to get them but I knew I just had to have them as I have been searching the web for several years for this set. I called the phone number for their site and Sharon, their co-ordinator, was so helpful and such a pleasant person to deal with. She facilitated my getting these beautiful cups in my mailbox a week later. I was absolutely thrilled when I opened the parcel to see that such care was taken in wrapping the cups to make sure they arrived safe and they were in perfect condition just like Sharon had said they were. Thank you so much, I am enjoying my morning book and coffee in my Watkins mug. Each morning I smile to myself as I say “Which one should I choose today?”

Sharon, I just want you to know I received the Gomer Pyle thermos to go along with my lunch box which I have had for many years where it mainly sits on a shelf for display – except for the times I use it for my money box when I hold a yard sale!  For as long as I’ve had the lunch box I’ve been looking for the thermos, but ones I’ve seen were out of my price range or were too “perfect” for my “loved” lunch box.  Imagine then my surprise when my grown son (who also is a collector) texted me one day with a picture of your thermos and on sale to boot.  The only hindrance to me was you were in Canada and I didn’t see how I could possibly acquire it. That’s where you entered the picture!! I emailed you if you would consider shipping to of all places Texas and you said you would look into it and get back with me. Well, after A few emails and a couple of phone calls you made it work!! It may seem like a small thing but your politeness meant so much to me I just wanted to thank you once again. I haven’t dealt with anyone so friendly and nice in a long time-you really went above and beyond.  I wished we lived closer and I could regularly visit your store!!

” I was thrilled with my soapstone purchase. I enjoy the online shopping and it is  even better knowing that my purchase helps The Salvation Army do their amazing work throughout the year.”
