Just a few clarifications and additional notes:

* Unlike the TeeSpring business model, this will be available ANY TIME. You don't have to wait to see if enough others order, and you don't have to worry about missing a deadline.

* In addition to the Green shirts, we have nine other colors you can choose from -- Black, Purple, Hot Pink, Brown, Indigo (bluish gray), Wine, Red, Turquoise and Royal Blue.

* The 15% off coupon (TUG) is good on anything (including the TUG shirt), but only through 6/21/15.

* Plus sizes (2X to 5X) are available, but they're extra. The blanks cost us more and the shipping costs more, so to keep the prices as low as possible, we have to pass those costs on.

Thanks!

Wow - I like this one too

Maybe a bit more ;) than the one I already have. Both are great, and it is a joy to wear and answer questions about timeshares. I think this t-shirt campaign is a wonderful idea, and I hope it keeps going.

Good work Brian and Michael. Let's spread the TUG information to the world!

Ok, I did not realize this, I'm wearing this shirt for my upcoming timeshare visit. Do I need to take the picture with the name of the resort in the background or can the picture be taken anywhere on the grounds of the resort?

Fitzpatrick's Castle Holiday Homes,
Enchanted Isle.
I was going to take my shirt to Fitzpatrick's Castle, but they are the nicest people in the world. I did not want to hurt their feelings. As far as I know they are not doing timeshare presentations there and I have no regrets owning there. I did buy resale from another Tug member and love the place like my own home!
I will wear it somewhere else where the sales people are pushy!

Nine ordered so far, and they should all be shipped out on Monday.

Large variety of colors ordered:

Kelly Green (pictured) - 3
Wine - 2
Turquoise - 1
Royal Blue - 1
Indigo - 1
Black - 1

Red, Purple, Brown and Hot Pink are the only colors not ordered yet!

Our cutoff for shipping is about 2pm CT each day, so you still have a chance to be one of the first!

Here's the picture:

Just wanted to remind everyone that the coupon ("TUG") for an extra 15% off the TUG "Keep Calm" shirt (and anything else you want to buy) expires on Sunday.

We also have a huge sale going on, with $5 off all 300 of our women's and children's designs, celebrating our 5000th Facebook fan and our 300th design.

The first batch of shirts went out on Monday. If you got yours already, what do you think? Looking forward to seeing pictures. :)

I will try to get a pic of me wearing mine tomorrow. I keep forgetting about it and I do have it with me at our timeshare. I only wish you had women's sizes and not just generic sizes, as the women's sizes fit much better and look much better than ones made for unisex.

We do stock women's cut tees for a few of the colors (Red, Black and Brown), but I initially set the Keep Calm shirt up for Unisex tees just to keep it simple. If there's a demand for the women's cut tees, I'll go ahead and add the options.

I've added the options for women's cut tees.

They really do much better on women. Here is the pic of me- looking very frumpy in mine at our new acquired free resort this past week. I am over weight but believe me the women's cut tee would have been more flattering.
