I needed some red, white and blue sprinkles to decorate some star sugar cookies for a pack meeting tonight.
Where in the world am I going to find these colors after the Fourth of July??
Harmons.
All you need to do is go up to the gal at the Bakery counter and ask.
"Oh, sure ~ we can do that! Do you want the colors all mixed together or separate?"
Together, please.
"It will be $2.99 for 8 oz. Is that o.k.?"
Sweet!
Harmon's is great for fulfilling special requests.
When my grapes were ripe and I needed 2 quart bottles STAT.... Harmons gladly sent in a special order and I got my bottles right away, at no extra cost.
I needed a prime rib roast in June. The prime rib steaks were on sale and not only did Harmons give us a roast at the steak price, they prepped it for easier cutting AND seasoned it, for no extra charge.
I needed 2 T. of sesame seeds to top some hoagie buns. I couldn't bring myself to pay top dollar for a large bottle of sesame seeds that I wouldn't use, so I asked the sweet gal at the bakery and guess what?
She sold me 2 T. of sesame seeds for twenty-five cents.
Thank you, Harmons, for great customer service and for coming to my rescue!
Those cookies were great and I love that Harmons does things like that.
ReplyDeleteI have to say, those were great cookies! and I never would have thought to ask for 2 Tbsp of oil!
ReplyDeleteWell aren't you a genius. I would never have thought to ask for the sprinkles at Harmon's bakery...or two tablespoons of sesame seeds! However, I have asked Walmart bakery for their empty 5 gallon frosting buckets so that I could store rice, sugar, flour, dry beans, etc. They sold them to me for $1.00 per bucket! I wonder if Harmon's bakery would sell their used buckets?
ReplyDeleteIt doesn't hurt to ask!
DeleteIf you went to the one in Draper on 114, my good friend happens to be the bakery manager there! LOVE THEM! They were the ones who came to the rescue with the custom Dumbo cake for Harper's last birthday!
ReplyDeleteI've loved the hint about using 1/4" paint stirrers to get even thickness on the cookies. It's the only way I do cookies now! Someone else must have had the same idea: http://www.amazon.com/Country-Kitchen-SweetArt-Perfection-Strips/dp/B0006B4H5C/ref=sr_1_1?s=home-garden&ie=UTF8&qid=1342802653&sr=1-1
