Cranky Spanish Valentine’s Day T-shirt

Carrie — Fri, 29 Jan 2010 23:08:41 +0000

Do you think perhaps Flaco is having a tough Valentine’s 2010?

Nah, he’s just funny as all hell and that is why I adore him in a Bossy Big Sister/Baby Brother way.

We’re uploading Valentine’s, love and besitos designs for Chichi&Flaco. You can get free standard shipping on some items now through Feb. 10. Code: FEBSALE.

This tee shirt design strays from our happy happy joy joy kind of attitude at C&F, but hell, we’re willing to veer a little. Anything for a laugh and a sale, you know? (We’ve limited the sale to 10, by the way.)

Please be sure to check out our other new designs. And, we even added a Do You Mofongo? tee for the Puerto Ricans to go with Do you Fufu? design for the Cubans.

So, are you going to have a great San Valentin, or are you buying one of these tees?

Latino Family Holiday Gift Guide

Carrie — Mon, 10 Nov 2008 17:01:00 +0000

The Christmas decorations came out in some local stores before Halloween. Me muero. I truly am no fan of so much red and green and gold and glitter so soon in the season because it obscures my favorite holiday: Thanksgiving.

I love Thanksgiving because it’s about eating and relaxing with people you love, no need for a present just your presence.

That said, the reality is it is time to start thinking about gifts.

We’re all cutting back, for sure, so as you consider how best to spend your dinerito let me introduce you to a list of great goods that celebrates Latino culture and supports small American business (yes, like mine.)

Please visit the Latino Family’s Holiday Gift Guide, which has been created by Monica from Latin Baby. You will find unique and affordable gifts such as ornaments, jewelry, Spanish instruction CDs, dolls and yes, Pollitos.

Happy Shopping and Prospero Ano Nuevo. Emphasis on the Prospero!

Biggest Sale Ever of our Spanish t-shirts

Carrie — Fri, 10 Oct 2008 15:42:00 +0000

There is no denying the children who wear Los Pollitos Dicen t-shirts are the cutest, funniest, most colorful little people on the planeta.

Evidence: Just look at this girl! (And of course, her handsome brothers, who have their own collection of Pollitos.)

So, to help you dress your babies in cool Spanish t-shirts, and to celebrate the last days of Hispanic Heritage Month, we are announcing that all tee shirts in the classic wooden gift box are on sale for $15.99. That’s an $8 reduction from the regular price and the biggest price drop we’ve ever offered.

The sale runs through Oct. 15 or while supplies last. No rain checks.

Watch this space too for an announcement about much-requested additions to our line.

Have a good weekend everybody.

A new widget and a quickie Los Pollitos Dicen sale

Carrie — Tue, 22 Jan 2008 15:56:00 +0000

Let me just say I love Paypal. They’ve introduced a storefront widget that can be published to blogs, Facebook and any site that allows html code. It even has an option that lets other folks post the storefront on their sites. Talk about the networking potential!

I just made a quickie storefront, and in honor of Paypal and my budding techie skills, here’s a little sale to test it out.

Below, you’ll discover Los Pollitos Dicen onesies in newborn sizes at a discounted price — 10 bucks off to be exact. Shipping is included in the price. You can look at the actual tees on our website.

Need a baby gift? Want one? Click and help me test this widget. If it works, that means I will from time to time add secret sales for Bilingual in the Boonies readers…and watch this space for a few more uploads and sales in the next few days.

Pass the word!

New Poll: What kind of t-shirt gets your Latin on?

Carrie — Fri, 02 Nov 2007 00:41:00 +0000

I am looking at T-shirt samples for the upcoming adult line. I’m a little dizzy, to tell the truth. There is so much variety in color, fit, cost, material, origin. But, I love looking at the colors. Like candy, they are.

I know what I want: A bright, fitted, soft cotton, preferably made in the United States. I’m OK with paying more for it if it is going to last. It would be a bonus if it were organic or bamboo, but those are some serious bucks. (Sadly, there’s a huge difference in wholesale cost for organics and bamboo.)

What about you? Tell me about your favorite T-shirt. What does it feel like? Has it shrunk? Faded? Do you care? Is it an inexpensive T? Is it a fabulously luxurious one? What color is it?

Help us give you the best T-shirt possible. Please, take a moment to answer the Poll to the right and give me whatever feedback you like here or via e-mail. (You can select more than one choice in the poll.)

It wasn’t very difficult to pick the Pollito tee manufacturer. Hands-down the best private-label manufacturer we found out there. And, we custom dye the chick tees, so picking colors from a selection — and overloading my brain — isn’t an issue.

By the way, my favorite T-shirt all summer long has been the Tocororo we sold at Cuba Nostalgia this past May. That pajaro tropical is definitely going to be a regular in the new line-up.

Thanks for your help!
