  Due in part to a personnel change at the printer, the March/April V-8 TIMES and 2018 Membership Roster will be late.They should mail this week (4/16).

In the bag with the V-8 TIMES and Roster will be your membership card and FREE classified ad coupon. Don't throw anything away!

It will be in your mailbox soon.

Thanks for your patience.
And thanks to Jerry for doing what he does -- a continued great job.

  Got mine in PA several days ago.

  Everyone needs to remember that the V-8 TIMES is mailed 3rd Class.
That means that your friendly postal delivery person does not have to deliver it as fast as 1st Class mail.

That could explain why some are getting it and others have to wait.

Be patient -- 'good things come to those that wait'

  Ok, since I posted this, mine just came today. I guess the U.S. Postal Service just wasn't as fast as I expected.

  Shakespeare had an appropriate line that fits this sextet of threads that appears here annually.


TonyM    -- 05-01-2018 @ 3:46 PM
  Ok, still no V-8 Times for me in the Chicago area. I know it is not club's fault.

The countdown will begin.

  V8 Times arrived in SW Ohio last Friday 04/27/18. Anyone have this same problem, pages 41 thru 48 are missing. Pages 49 thru 63 are inserted twice. Thanks.

  Mine is OK through pg. 40, then has 41-48 twice, skips 49-64, has 65-72 twice, then OK from 73 to end. Looks like the last two layers before the staple and fold got switched.

  Mine came today in New Jersey and all the pages are in the right order. Looking up, the warm weather hit here also.

Also noted that the Classified Ad card this year Shows expired in APRIL 2018 rather than 2019.

  Still waiting for my V-8 Times in the Chicago Metro area.

My father worked for the USPS for 35 years. Irony.

  Tony, tell you mailman to hurry up and finish reading the V-8 Times. I received mine May 1 and I live in the northwest suburbs.

Tom


pinnsky    -- 05-07-2018 @ 2:55 PM
  Still not here in suburban Chicago.


TonyM    -- 05-07-2018 @ 4:16 PM
  I feel your pain.

Still no V-8 Times in the Chicago Metro area.

  I'm on the northwest side of Chicago; got mine May 1st or 2nd. TomO got his May 1st, in a Chicago suburb. Seems we are seeing big discrepancies even within a regional area.

In the past when I experienced a slow delivery I tended to want to blame the shipper, or the carrier's originating facility. But after reading this, I'm going to suspect the delay is at the local level. Could be slow sorting at the local postal station, or maybe even comes down to how conscientious is the route carrier about grabbing every item for his/her route.


TonyM    -- 05-08-2018 @ 7:12 AM
  My letter carrier is pretty good, but when he takes a day off delivery not so good.

Really unfortunate that this issue -- with membership card and classified coupon -- is the one that has gone missing.
