Official "end my sales presentation early" TUG uniform (tshirts and hats) for sale!

I do like the "Stay Calm and Buy Resale."
There's also:
"Ask my about my $1 Timeshare"
or
"Ask my about YOUR $1 Timeshare" ;)
or
"Yes, you should rescind! Ask me how."
 
ill have to create a poll this weekend about what phrase/comment folks want on the next run of shirts/towels/bags/dog sweaters/etc!

so post up here what you would like to see and ill add it to the poll when i create it.

"I rescinded my last developer purchase." (or something along the lines of knowing how rescission works).
 
1. "Adopt a pre-owned timeshare... and save thousands!"

2. I recall seeing this somewhere a while back, and I love it... "I don't always buy timeshares, but when I do, I buy resale" (in the style of Dos Equis - The Most Interesting Man In the World)

I like this one.
 
this one?

although i would imagine a full color picture printed would increase the price significantly!

Any movement on latest shirts?

It was funny watching them read the shirt. Salesperson kryptonite .

Well, none of our TS were resale purchases (bought years ago, before the internet was such a good source of information), so that eliminates quite a few of your options above for us, and right now I'd vote for number 14. But actually I most love the one that @SandyPGravel is wearing in the photo above your post, and I would buy that one!
 
no worries, ill make an actual poll at the end of the week folks can vote on. i just want to make sure i get in all the options!

you can buy the keep calm tshirts directly from TUG member @MichaelColey the links are in his profile.
 
I get a kick out of these provocative and humorous tee shirts. As time goes on, I go to fewer and fewer presentations. But perhaps I'll buy one of the next lot of tee shirts.

I thought that all of this was a great idea. So I posted it on Interval Intl. on a string regarding tee shirts that people wear on their TS vacations. Most wore tee shirts promoting a local sports team or college or university. I didn't mention that these are available for purchase because I thought that it might violate one of Interval's rules. It will probably be deleted but maybe not. But perhaps a few people may join Tug or may have their eyes opened in regards to resale timeshares.
 
vs antagonizing the sales reps...I like to think these shirts engage more "bystanders" to strike up a conversation with the TUG member wearing it!
 
These shipped out today. All 6 of the initial orders were different colors!

They are available in over 20 colors of tees and about half a dozen colors in the Football Raglan.

awesome! glad folks are enjoying them enough to buy them!
 
The teeshirt design to cope with timeshare presentations has a limitless horizon as I see a competition for the best non confrontational design whilst passing a message to the presentation person and their 'manager' would sell very well, image with potent repost folks that is the aim.

This is a great idea. Should be standard issue for anyone flying into CUN, PVR, or SJD.
 
sorry, I havent done much of anything for new designs etc.

if Michael wants to offer more sayings, I am all for it!
 
at the current time yes.
 
I just ordered the "latest 2019" shirt from Hip Together, but I also ordered the TUG Island Logo Pocket Print shirt from Amazon, so now I'll have two TUG shirts to choose from! I wish the one from Hip Together had the TUG Island logo on it - would help keep it from being sort of plain. Do we still get a year's membership for buying a shirt? If not, that's fine, just curious!
