Tales of the Cocktail LogoTales of the Cocktail is quickly approaching and I find myself in a bit of a quandary – extra tickets to some sold out seminars and others are in my possession.  If you’re in need I have them in exchange for the purchase price.  Tales of the Cocktail makes it easy to transfer the tickets online.  PayPal makes it easy to purchase online.  Tickets are $47 each ($40 ticket price, $3 Conv. Fee, and tax) and available on a first come, first serve basis.  Two Friday day passes are also available as soon as the logistics have been worked out.  Email me with the seminars you want to purchase to get the ball rolling: str8upcocktails@gmail.com  

And yes…I will still be attending Tales of the Cocktail sitting in some of these very seminars taking notes!
