Tumi sale alert

Their annual sale begins today. 20% off everything and half the proceeds go to charity. Seems like I always come in the week after it ends needing a new piece

No doubt he’s been camped out at his local Tumi retailer to ensure his position in line for the sale.

Paul has been away for some time. Hope all is well with him and his family.

Just purchased my 1st Tumi product today - I blame, or credit TRF.
Enablers!

Been a while since we’ve heard from you Paul - hope you & your Mom are getting on as well as can be expected after the passing of your Dad.
Take Care!

He's probably been camped out at Tumi all this time.

I do hope all is well, though.

FYI...
Paul made a post in a different thread back in January stating his father passed away on Christmas. I have not reached out to him personally since I don’t know him well. Was hoping he might read this thread...his absence has been felt on TRF.

Thanks Janet.
I had no idea and I’m very sorry to hear this. Hope he sees this thread too and yes, he is sorely missed here.
