They advertise on FB all the time.

Good to see a corporation using money to promote speech.

"Impeach! De-Fund Fox! Save America!

—Last week it was announced that Penzeys was second in Facebook Impeachment ads spending to only the president himself."

(I wonder if Bill is a DU member...)

Reading it again, the offer is good today and tomorrow. I’m busy filling up my shopping cart.

Thank you!

Been buying from them for at least 10 years

And the double vanilla.

Gonna need to load up my shopping cart.

They need a Christmas gift for? Ordering from here will make it sweeter.

I have a nephew in that category.

. . . Would be ordering a a gift of manure from Oxfam in Trump's name. (The manure is sent to farmers in struggling communities.)

All of which will require a variety of spices.

Thanks for the nudge! I’m in!

...so glad you reminded me! I think I'll be fully stocked soon!

I just bought $60 worth of spices to give the the Cons in my family at Christmas. No message about them or anything, just some cool spices they might never know what the company is pushing.

The products are great, in case you wondered.

With a grain of salt

as Penzeys offers: Grey Sea Salt, Kosher-Style Flake, or Pacific Sea... I've used their spices for years. Great recipes and they're really pro Teachers! I highly recommend their 'Chili 6000' if you like Chili.

I just ordered!

even before I got the email about their donating 100% of the $$$ from new customer purchases towards their ads (am not a "new customer" but they wanted the regulars to up their purchases too in order to make up for the difference and I had already happily obliged ).

I bought from them the first time because of their stand against Trump.

I've stayed a customer because of the quality of their products.

The assorted gift sets are very handy gifts in a variety of price ranges... I highly recommend them

that they eventually moved downtown a few years ago so they could operate out of a larger space and at a location with HUGE foot traffic (the Independence Hall area, not far from where I worked before retiring)... But when I could go to it, I loved just walking around in there and seeing all the variety of spices!!!!! I always walked out with a bag full of something (they used little paper shopping bags with handles for purchases).

But their website is very well done.

Easy to navigate attractive photos and a smooth checkout.

I highly recommend thir cinnamon vanilla savory leaves and extra hot red pepper flake.

I've never had a bad product from them but those 4 items are exceptionally delicious.

And the savory leaves especially. They are head and shoulders above powdered savory for chicken soups and turkey gravy.

And please allow me to compliment your stunning use of commas to seperate nouns in a list of 3 or more, as well as phrases related to but seperate from the main thrust of the sentence.

I know there has been a debate on DU regarding the use of a comma before an "and" at the end of a list. I was taught to include one there too but apparently some were not and it's considered blasphemy if one is there.

They make nice gifts in many price ranges.

Find myself short of pink salt(sodium nitrate).

Rather than ordering from my butcher I think Penzeys may be getting my business.

As for impeachment, support will come from evidence, not advertising.

that half of all people are below average.

Tom Steyer wasted millions on Impeachment advertising that had no appreciable effect, and could have been better spent on actual political campaigns in 2018.

like the one that features heretofore woefully anonymous individual Tom Steyer, suddenly identifiable as "the impeachment guy" in the early stages of the Democratic contest?

I'll argue his intended effect was quite appreciable.

What else was he to do? Pitch a reality show?

Is all that money spent on advertising wasted?

In the instant case, ads about impeachment get people to think about it when they otherwise might not have. Impeachment and removal from office requires public (voter) support. If the public is not informed, Representatives and Senators have only their consciences to guide them. Informing the public is a way to cause voters to express their opinions to their representatives in Congress.

Advertising is effective in boosting sales, else it would not be a multi-billion dollar a year business.

are fresh and good quality.

I enjoy buying there because of the way Bill Penzey interacts with the world. Honest, decent, and socially conscious.

Decency is hard to come by these days.

I am on my own now and cooking for 1 can be tough, and also I am lazy, so a lot of time I will just season a chicken breast and bake it for dinner. Penzeys has a lot of seasoning mixes that are great and fun. I bought some of the new ones to try. They are a great company.

I just ordered spices.

Their products are excellent! They seem expensive, but they're not really that much more than what you get in the grocery store, and they're far superior. I highly recommend them.

Time has really flown by!

I've only been thinking about.

so if you are already a Penzey's customer (I have been for over 20 years now), be sure to get your friends and family that are not current customers to place orders to help support this!

If you make home baked goods - once you try their Mexican vanilla you will never go back to regular ol vanilla. Great in coffee too.

I relocated from GA to FL. I miss not having a Penzey's locally. There's a store in ATL. I was planning to go there when I visit my parents for Thanksgiving. Given what they are doing, I will make my order online to support them.

How on earth do you decide - for a gift?
