    Default Mama Bear's alive and well !!!

    I have read in several threads about Mama Bear's closing down after the first of the years or what ever. I ordered some while I still had a chance and happy about that. Then I started to wonder why she would close down. With all the added stories about how small businesses are being aced out and yada yada what ever. I found the facebook site and dropped Mama Bear a note . Well within minutes I found out she plans on being around for some time now. In other words, life is good for Mama Bear and there are NO plans of closing down anything. So if you haven't tried it you still can. I for 1 am totally happy about this. I may venture off and try other soaps but they will have to be compared to this one which for the money will be hard to beat.

    Mama bear is one of my favorite types of soap- the best part is how many scents he has. You could buy one a week for a year and only own half of what she has to offer, glad to hear shes not closing shop... good stuff!

    Good news indeed, now I can finally pull the trigger

    Still makes me wonder why she posted that she was closing down only to reverse the decision a month later? Maybe a sudden influx of business was enough to keep her afloat lol

    Good news, as Ryan , I was concerned the other day about placing an order, since the closure notice. Now I will order some of the pucks to put in my Pyrex jars.

    Thanks for taking the time, 10Pups

    She had some of the regular business problems a small business has but it all worked out. Good news for me and I am glad I didn't try to corner the market :<0)

    I never saw where she said she was closing down, just that they were closing the web-site after the first of the year, but the business would still be operating. Did she change her mind on this and decide to keep the web-site going?

    Great News! I have many of her soaps and now I can order more. If you haven't tried her soaps you are missing out.

    Well, that worked for me: when I heard that I ordered a couple for myself as well as some for my Dad and Brother-in-law.

    Great to hear she isn't going away after all.

    It was in original condition, faded red, well-worn, but nice.
    This was and still is my favorite combination; beautiful, original, and worn.
