Hello,

:)

I'm not sure this is the right place to post this suggestion. If not I'll remove it and repost where told to.

I know that VIPs get a VIP Card. Do you guys also get a lapel pin though or some such thing? Seems to me that would be a handy way for all of you to easily stand out in the crowd at the Blue Marlin and Key Largo. Don'cha think?

:P

Jelb,

After all of the money you spent in CR why not spend a few bucks to become VIP? I am still awaiting my first trip to CR but I spent a few bucks early on to become VIP because of the information, and second the discounts.

Your posts? Are they real? Or are you an aspiring writer? I find it hard to believe you could make the same money spending mistake day, after day while in CR. You complain about your expenditures on day 1, but you do it over and over again. You also mentioned one night of blown money was equal to 2 weeks take home pay. Blew 2 weeks take home pay X 4,,,,and you are planning another trip. Something is fishy here, and not as in the red snapper.

You certainly do have a great ability to become a fiction writer, or a great B.S.er.

I think a lapel pin or pocket pendant of some type to represent CRT would be a great idea. Many of us wander and wonder around the DR and ask sometimes, in embarrasment, if someone is a CRT member. When a person is not a member, then we have to go into a dissertation of what CRT is.

I just throw on my CRT t-shirt when meeting up with fellow members. You could also get a CRT hat, thong, sweatshirt, boxer shorts or a baby monger bib!

I just sit with "Vegas Bob" during happy hour...that way everybody knows. By the way Vegas...have you cloned yourself? If I go online here.. you"re here, if I walk into DR...you're there, if I go to sports book...you're there and the same with the casinos. Having said all that, how is it that you missed the fat gringa tour the other day?

Herbf,

:?:

It's very likely I'll become a member - though I do intend to check out the benefits again before doing so.

My posts are real but not as bad as you make them out to be. Day one's expenditures weren't as high as I'd originally calculated and once I did the conversion correctly I didn't regret one colone I spent that night.

The night in Quepos was pricey - mainly due to the $125 sexo completo. It was also one of the three most satisfying expenditures.

As far as blowing two weeks take home goes... that happened once over a period of two nights not four times. If it had been four times I wouldn't be able to return in March or maybe even May.

I hope you're joking here. I know how text can be inadequate in cases like this. If you're not though, well, I'm not a fiction writer nor a B.S.er.

A lapel pin is a great idea, and to be honest I have already layed out the design which is a CR Flag on one side a US flag on the other and a CRT VIP MEMBER text in the small center box.

I would have to order an very large amount to make it worth wild and you can imagine good quality pins of this nature are not cheap. Just trying to justify the expense as to whether they would be purchased or just up the membership a couple bucks next year and send them out with the VIP Cards.

Your feedback is always appreciated.

Again, I think it is a good idea.

I only wear my T shirt once at the DR. I don't wash my clothes when visiting. I can't stand the absorbed cigar/cigarette smoke stink so don't wear it again.

A pin will go on any new shirt. Will the pin cost more than a polo shirt with the logo? Is $30 too much/too little? Don't know much about this product.

Including it with a new membership card is a good idea too except some of us would want it sooner.

Just a thought here.

You can already buy pins with the USA and CR flags together. Do we really need anything specific to CRT on it? It's not like there are a bunch of guys already wearing these at the BM.

It would be nice to add a CRT touch but you could buy them without one in bulk a whole lot cheaper and get them immediately.

And you wouldn't have to explain it to anyone.

Let's see
Hands-Solo will need CR and Oh Cana-duh flags, and Latinoheat will need CR and Polish flags... :P

On second thought rainbow flags would be appropriate for these two...

Not sure a lapel pin is really very practical. A lot of guys do not wear shirts with a collar at the BM and most likely do not want to put a pin hole in their shirt.

As to the design, as has been mentioned, we have members who are not from the US and the thought of wearing a US flag pin is not appealing to them.
