Dates!!!

[Rawbin]

I'm ordering a bunch of dates from The Date People:
http://www.datepeople.net/Updatecolor2006_sm.pdf

If you look at their site online you'll find an old brochure but the prices have gone up in the past 3 years. For the first 10 pounds it costs $14 shipping
and there's a $4 discount on each additional box.
If you like Medjool dates, they recommend the Barti date. It's low glycemic, making it better for you than the medjool. I've read that it's the sweetest, softest, bestest date ever.

I've ordered a total of 35 pounds in 3 boxes and I'd be happy to share the cost with others.
$47 barhi 10# premium wet dates separated in fiber baskets
$24 barhi 10# "broken" (scratch & dents)
$28 assorted 15# seconds (bulk mixed batch some dry some moist)

Please let me know what you'd like me to share with you. I like all dates and I'm sure I won't be disappointed.

OMG I have been talking about Barhi dates since we went to Florida, Rawbin! Those that Jeff shared with us in DC were AMAZING!!

We're really crunched with our budget right now (after taking a vacation that wasn't exactly in the budet! LOL), so I can't go in on the order with you. However, please let me know if you order them again in the future. I may go in on it with you at that time!

Enjoy!!

So to be specific, it will be a dollar a pound for shipping. Let me know how much you want of what?

So for instance, here's an example of what I'd charge per pound for the dates:
Barhi premium-$5.70/lb
Barhi broken- $3.40/lb
Assorted- $3.80/lb

Hey Rawbin!! I'd do 5 of the barhi broken! Thanks!

Hi Rawbin,
I'd love some of the dates. Let me know what you can spare. I could either kind.

[Wysteria]

You already know I'm in ;)

Hi Rawbin,
I'd definitely like to share in this with you. I would like to try the Barhi premium cuz I like to stuff whole dates with almond butter. So the "bits & pieces" wouldn't work!
So, is there a minimum amount I could order? It's just little ole me eating them. Would they keep if I ordered, say, 2-3 lbs?
Thanks for doing this!
HUGS!

[Rawbin]

They should be arriving around February 25th. I keep them in a jar in a dark closet. I don't know if light makes a difference, but I've never had a problem with them going bad.

[Meredith]

Okay, Rawbin....so count me in for 3 lbs of the Barhi premium. I'll call your number that you posted above to find out how to get payment to you and how I'll get my dates! Hey, maybe a little date meetup for everyone participating in this!
I have a wicked cold right now and a very raspy voice, so I'll call after I'm not sounding like a frog!
Thanks so much! HUGS!

Hi Rawbin,
What are Barhi dates...the ones I see in the store are in the cooler section and are so hard that I am not interested. How much is one pound including shipping? Is it too late to order one? Thanks...Peace...Pat

[Rawbin]

I'll charge per pound for the dates including shipping:
Barhi premium-$5.70/lb
Barhi broken- $3.40/lb
Assorted- $3.80/lb

deglets are those hard little dates. Barhi are more like the medjool. Sweet, almost like caramel, very creamy and soft.
