I use my email from work because I monitor it by far
more frequently than any of my other emails. I try
to minimize any caches reliant on email for these sort
of problems though.
Mike, I did get your email this weekend, but unfortunately
I am traveling and didn't regain internet access until
today; ordinarily I will usually respond much more quickly.
If you still need some direction, let me know.
Maybe Jeremy should put in a profile field for cell phone numbers?
This could be another "for members only!"?
(just injecting a little levity)

I want to say, I think I got lucky on this one, but respect to the cache
owners, I do not wish to give any clues. This
is rated a 3.5 for difficulty, they have tried to raise the bar and
challenge our minds, similar to what Wyle E did with
some of his infamous caches. I think we all get use to the easy caches and
if they were all supposed to be easy, then
they all be rated 1's.

frustration!!!
I have personally checked out 4 grocery stores, 2 office product stores, 2
variety stores, and one drug store chain. With only a close product match
I'm running out of stores. Finding a cache item should not take many hours
and miles.
Just my opinion.
