In KK's case we have found that the U.S. Manufacturers and Raw Material Manufacturers have raised prices sufficiently in the last year that have equaled the price that should have been adjusted. Not to mention gas + freight costs.
Nightrider is right.
Buy in bulk from the U.S. and $ave. Only one big obstacle. Carpet cleaners do not use sufficient chemicals to require buying in bulk. It would go bad before you use it. Now, if a few cleaners could get together and buy this as a group there would be big savings. But as you can see by reading posts here it would be difficult getting carpet cleaners together to benefit from this kind of deal because there is far too much decision and arguing.  ------------- Kleen Kuip Supply Mart Inc. http://www.kleenkuip.com - New & Used Professional Carpet Cleaning Machines, Restoration Equipment, Training, Service and Supplies |

| If Ted were greedy for money, he would have got into a different business than this one. This is NOT a get rich quick occupation I can tell you! Good thing I am not in it for the money either, or I would have got out a long time ago. lol |
