DELIVERY OF 2006
WE HAVE CHANGED THE WAY FUTURE DELl
LIVERIES WILL BE HANDLED. Orders Must Now Pre-
Paid.
Please use the ORDER FORM for submitting your
order to your group representative for fruit and freezer
jam instead of this brochure. We will use your order form
to fill your order when the truck arrives at your location.
The drivers will no longer collect payments at the truck,
and each order when submitted must be accompanied by a
check or your credit card information If using a credit
ca~rd, please note that the V-CODE entry refers to the last
three numbers on the reverse of your card. Besides your
personal check or money order, we accept Visa, Mastercard,
American Express, and Discover. To assure delivery all
orders should be received by us during the June ordering
period. Please return the order form and your form of
payment to your representative as soon as you determine
what you want to order. Please note the deadline date for
orders to be turned in is in the top portion of this adver-
tisement.

You no longer have to wait in two lines to pick up your
order. The driver will already have your prepaid order
form. This should greatly reduce waiting time.
There will be far less shortages at the end of the deliv-
ery. No sales at the truck mean less chance of inventory
errors.
You can now use your credit card prior to delivery.
