"...And, I do not think it is good taste to say what you got for bonus plants. Back when I was selling, I had certain customers who always bought from me every time I had a list out. Some bought hundreds of dollars worth of plants every time. I gave them generous bonuses. If someone was a repeat customer, but they only bought one or two $10 plants every year or two... they are not going to get the bonus that the other customer would. So - if you got fantastic bonuses, and someone else didn't who bought from the same grower, they are going to feel slighted. When I was at the end of my selling as I was clearing out my sales garden, I sold with a list that very clearly said "NO BONUSES".... even though I stated that I was not going to send a bonus because I had very few plants left. Instead, I discounted the plants heavily and I paid shipping. I got complaints from a couple people that I did not send a bonus. ..

I totally agree with you.
