Saving Pennies for XMTS Custom Hose: Who's with me?

[Panache]

On another thread I wondered if anyone had diced or argyll hose to match the XMTS tartan.

In the midst of this discussion came an offer from the Josh (NorCalPiper):

Hey guys-
I have worked out a deal. There are some strings though. The order has to include at least 5. THEY CAN BE DICED OR ARGYLL-Discount is 10$ plus forum members get free shipping anyways, so thats 18$ off. 105.$(Diced) & 130.$(Argyll). THIS IS FOR XMTS TARTAN ONLY-NO OTHERS. There is no time limit on this, so you can start saving your pennies. If there are any questions, you have to PM me for any further info. -Josh

Looking at what he wrote again today I thought I would put his idea into practice.

Which idea?

... so you can start saving your pennies.

Why not? I'm sure I'm not the only one a bit hesitant to spend over $100 on...socks!

Let's make it easy on ourselves

So since Josh didn't set a time limit I have decided to save through the summer and hopefully order my hose at it's end.

Counting up my change in the wooden bowl on my dresser I came to a grand total of $34.34

So right off the bat I'm just about 1/3 of the way to a pair of diced hose and better than 1/4 of the way to argyll ones.

(By the by , I think we should get colors that go well with both the P/V and wool runs of the XMTS tartan.)

Any other X Markers want to join in with me to save their change for a few months to get something special to go with our XMTS tartan?

We can post our updated total at the end of each month and see how close we are getting.

So who is in?

Cheers
