2011 UPS Year-End Holiday Schedule

As many of you are probably aware, the Canadian Union of Postal Workers is on strike.  We were told that the strike may last until next week.  As of last Saturday, June 18, 2011, the U.S. Postal Service suspended accepting mail destined to Canada (with the exception of Global Express Guaranteed shipments, which costs about three times more than International Priority Mail).

Due to the above fact, Nu-Scents is currently unable to ship packages to Canada.  We apologize for any inconveniences that this may cause.  We hope for a speedy end to the strike, so that we can continue to serve our customers to the north.

We have had numerous inquiries about the Soap Net and have decided to share the information with everyone.

The soap net is a wonderful handmade product that is fully Made in the USA!  It is a spectacular “green” product that helps exfoliate the skin and improve circulation.  The design of the soap net, when used with soap and a little water, immediately forms an abundance of suds for a good clean wash.

There are many products on the market that are similar to the soap net, but so far none can hold a candle to the soap net’s unique excellence.  Here is a comparison of the Soap Net to most other imitation products:

• MADE IN USA

Soap Net – YES     Other Nets – NO (they are usually made in China or other countries)

• MADE OUT OF RECYCLED MATERIAL

Soap Net – YES     Other Nets – NO (they typically use natural resources and other chemicals)

• HAND MADE

Soap Net – YES     Other Nets – NO (quality is often sacrificed for quantity on big machines that pollute the environment)

• KEEPS MONEY IN USA ECONOMY

Soap Net – YES     Other Nets – NO (money is spent overseas when production is done out of country)

• RINSES CLEAN, DRIES QUICKLY, NO BACTERIA

Soap Net – YES     Other Nets – NO (many have multiple layers or tight netting that never fully dry causing bacteria to grow)

• RECYCLABLE – WON’T SIT IN LANDFILLS

Soap Net – YES     Other Nets – NO (they often cannot be recycled and must be thrown in the trash after use)
