Jelly Beans

When I was in Australia last month I showed my Porsche friend the Pelican Website, he just made his first order and had it shipped to my house because I am sending him some other Porsche stuff and it would work better. I finished packing everything, taped it up and saw the packet of jelly beans Pelican gives out to new customers. I didn't unwrap the package, I ate them. I feel bad but now that I have admitted my sin I feel much better.

I didn't get any Jelly Beans with my first order

The customs agent must have a sweet tooth!

Guys,

You have to request the jelly beans when you place your order !
I always make sure that Glenn puts it on my invoice to add a tin of jelly beans ...

Cheers !

I guess I wasn't that clear, it was his "first order" from Pelican.

I've received them on a couple of occasions - last time even managed to eat them before my daughters got to them.

I'll settle for the fact that the Aussie $ is up 10c (or 10%) on the US $ making all my purchases rather "sweet" at the moment
