I just spoke to the local JW Peppers store in Hopkins. They do not carry the model 901 folder but can have it shipped to them for pickup with no extra cost for shipping. The price is $11.95 plus tax of about $0.82 each. Does anyone still need to get their folder that would like to order with me?

I have ordered the folders for the following list of people:
Bob Johnson, Whitney Taylor, Jill Albano, Chuck, Mark, Marcus Darrington, Stacy, Joe Roshar, Donnetta Ostergren, Jill (post above) and myself. They expect to have them in by Thursday or Friday of next week. The price is $13 (saving everyone about $4-$5 each on shipping).
