Hi Guys... just checking in... I haven't been around much since I opened an eCrater store AND a Blujay store and I just got done listing all of my inventory.
Any advertising ideas would be great!!
Please visit and tell me what you think...

http://blujay.com/fabulous-for-less (Fashions, handbags, jewelry)
I'm thinking of closing my eBay store so your marketing ideas would really help me decide if I should do that...
SWEET!! So glad your back and feeling OK... get better soon!!!
