There really isn't much good out there in the second hand market especially if you are a guy- men vastly outnumber women and the very few nice women can afford to be really choosy. Most have more baggage than Heathrow Airport left luggage. Try other options.....
ah right, cool, bat for the other side then

Hey Gayle
This shows "effective Sept 1. July and August are not completed yet. So incomplete?
It's probably data showing set for the new Service Year which starts on 1 September each year
Oh wait, it's not Dominica?

A Question
by FedUpJW ini would appreciate knowing from someone in the know if the goofy carts and rain covers are given to the congregation by the org.
or if the congregation has to pay the org for them.
i am sure i read that somewhere here in my lurking days, but am not finding it at present.. if the congregation is billed for it i intend to use that as a reason for my continued refusal to donate anything from now on.. thanks in advance..

Of course they will never budge a finger to actually do any real ministry.
Interesting view - most here, and I stand to be corrected, do not believe the trolley work counts as 'real ministry' - just standing their, 10 feet away, not approaching people - but you obviously disagree with that.
Anyway, the two of them ain't being used think how much money your congregation is saving not having to buy all the posters each month!! Maybe you should suggest that your congregation gets another pair and saves more money not buying the posters each month!!!
But poor SO, that's bad, surprised the CO hasn't done anything about it yet?

Hey neat blue dog
I think it's more along of the lines of when publishers ask how much they are etc
the answer is that the cost is covered by their donations to the worldwide work (rather than a donation to local congregation)
I would have thought even a brief congregation announcement could be in order, if it was felt to be needed.
this would be in contrast to the costs for the printed posters for which publishers may contribute to the local congregation (and not the worldwide work)
And in real life, I think more people ask about who pays for the actual printed posters rather than the cart....
That's all folks!

Yes there are fixed costs for everything (somebody's gotta pay for it, right?) The Lit-carts ® cost $40 a piece and you are required to buy them in pairs for $80. There is also a catalog of all kinds of accessories, which may include covers, etc. Not sure about pricing.
Except now they're provided at no direct charge (see earlier in this thread for post and link to the BoE Letter)
And, anyway just three months at $15-a-month poster is more than the capital costs, as per my earlier post in this thread.
That's all folks!
