Bay Area Pricescopers are getting together on Saturday, November 8th for lunch and color stone shopping. Lunch will be at 1:00 pm in a restaurant near San Francisco airport and shopping will be in San Francisco. Harriet will be in the Bay Area that weekend, and she will be joining us. I have announced this GTG earlier to the Bay Area email list. Those of you who have responded that you are coming would have received another email from me with details. If you are not on the email list, and you are interested in joining this GTG, please reply to this post. We hope to see more of you and your latest collection.

Movie Zombie: Flopkins sent me your email. I'll add you to the Bay Area email list. Hope you can make the next GTG as I want to see your spess too.

Star Sparkle: I would love to add you to the Bay Area email list, but I'm not sure how. Does any one who is on the list have your email address? Otherwise, you will have to come to a future GTG and give us your email in person.

Dutch Flowers,

Does any Bay Area Pricescopers have your email? You are welcomed to join us. Lunch will be at 1:00 pm at the big Chinese restaurant on Millbrae Ave in Millbrae. Do you know which one I am referring to? If not, I will post the details later. We will go shopping in San Francisco afterwards. Please let us know by tomorrow morning if you can make it. If you are coming, can you tell us how we can recognize you?

Hi Art Nouveau,

Count me in!

Hmmm.  I don't think anyone on PS has my personal email.  I'm sure I can figure out what restaurant you are talking about.  My hubby grew up in Millbrae and knows the local haunts. 
Me - I'm about 5'6" and have short blond hair.  My first name is April.
Should I ask for a particular name at the front desk?


See you soon!

I'm going to try to make it assuming it's not raining cats and dogs (I'll be driving in from Sacto)  I have a lot of colored stones from my pre-PS days, but...  not a lot worth showing off! Still, I'd love to be there to meet you all, and I'll contribute what I can to the bling-fest.

Movie Zombie,

Thanks for the info about the show in Menlo Park.  I'm afraid we won't be able to include this one on our GTG on Saturday, as we do not have time to be in both San Francisco and Menlo Park in one afternoon.

Wow...I didn't even see this until VRBeauty let me know about it!  Dang it, I have a wedding to go to in Livermore and am going with a friend...we have to leave Sacramento by 3 and I just can't see making it to both.  I would have loved to have met you all!  Please keep me in mind if you do another GTG...I thought I saw a mention of one after the holidays?

dutchflowers and VRBeauty:

The GTG lunch is at 1:00 pm. The reservation at the restaurant is made under Frances/Pricescope. I asked for a big round table on the main floor. VR Beauty, I do not have your email. Do you know where we are meeting? I'll post here if you don't.

So sad I won't be able to come and meet you all tomorrow, and yes, dear Linda, next time maybe we can go together!

AN...VRBeauty has my name and email address...I would like her to pass these along to you so that maybe you can include me in future emails for GTG's if that's all right?

I hope you ladies have a fantastic time...can't wait to hear all about it!
