BTW thanks for having me! :) I enjoyed giving back and it was a lot of fun. Here is my feedback if it helps any.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Benefits of scanning</div><div class="">- Inventory control</div><div class="">- Double dipping prevention</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Cons of scanning</div><div class="">- Time consuming</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Benefits of using a coupon</div><div class="">- Provides faster tee pickup</div><div class="">- Decreased wait time</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Cons of using a coupon</div><div class="">- No Inventory control</div><div class="">- No double dipping prevention ( people can just say I lost it )</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">An alternative to both: Just marking a big black X on the back of the badge with a sharpie. It’s fast, they can’t say they lost the coupon. Con: No inventory control, an alternative would need to be implemented.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">List of my observations. The following led to increased tee shirt selection delay.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">- Unable to decide on a size by the time the attendees approached the table.</div><div class="">- Unable to easily view the size while standing in line. (tees were flat on the table) Attendees had to wait till it was their turn to get a good look.</div><div class="">- No mirrors for the ladies. Most would never buy a dress without seeing what it looks like. Same applies to tees for some women. </div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Proposed possible solutions to decrease wait time:</div><div class="">- Tack the tees on the wall kinda like a teeshirt shop. That way people can see the sizes from a far and have an idea of what size they need by the time they get to the table.</div><div class="">- Small mirror for those like like to see the fit.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Additional comments:</div><div class="">I saw somewhere down below someone commented on the material. I washed & dried it. I agree that softness is everything. The scale tee was (Gildan Heavy Cotton 100% cotton) The orange endless (Gildan Softstyle Ring Spun) was a lot softer I liked it better.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Nadia</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><div><blockquote type="cite" class=""><div class="">On Mar 7, 2017, at 11:35 PM, Mx Siltanen <<a href="mailto:mrsiltanen@gmail.com" class="">mrsiltanen@gmail.com</a>> wrote:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><div class=""><div dir="ltr" class=""><br class=""><div class="">"<span style="font-size:12.8px" class="">Did anyone actually find the badge scanning to be slow?"</span></div><div class=""><span style="font-size:12.8px" class=""><br class=""></span></div><div class=""><span style="font-size:12.8px" class="">Went well when I went with a friend. </span></div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br class=""><div class="gmail_quote">On Tue, Mar 7, 2017 at 10:44 PM, Lei Zhang <span dir="ltr" class=""><<a href="mailto:leiz@socallinuxexpo.org" target="_blank" class="">leiz@socallinuxexpo.org</a>></span> wrote:<br class=""><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">We had 4 people there when the crowd came.
