Well then. Welcome to freedom club :)

The truth will set you free is an adage we have heard often but practice little. Maybe hard to swallow the truth at times but with acceptance one learns to stop playing the victim and accept responsibility for your own choices that led you down this path. It's always easy to blame some one but if the problem is outside your control then so is the solution. In truth the problem is self created and the solution lies in changing your attitude in how you approach it.

That will be $200 for the psychoanalysis session please. I accept GIGL gift cards as well :)

Why do you always come off with guns blazing.....lol. Bet you like those old westerns :)

Good stats except for the shareholders meetings of which there have been two so far and I know you were in both of them :)

What makes you feel I was not open to your answer? I simply gave you my feedback and my own opinions. It appears to me perhaps you are not open enough to my POV instead.

One also does not get different results by re-hashing things over and over again. Everyone loves a scapegoat but making Joey one is an effort in futility and achieves nothing. It is our own shortcomings we should address about how we all got into this position. Looking back I wish I had not risked so much. I have only myself to blame over this fiasco. Blaming Joey changes nothing and is completely counter productive to any existing or future investors. In truth we all know this is an amazing concept but poorly executed. One can only hope for a better future or check out if no hope is left.

The simple answer is that I want this to succeed because a) I have a lot invested in it already b) it is a great concept that is worthy of succeeding regardless of management flaws

The number on the top is the one that matters($3040 last for GIGL <5000 for it to be searchable) even though it differs from the one at the bottom. Not sure what the difference is but seems to be common to have the top one be less than bottom figure.

Here is one example
https://wefunder.com/the.speakeasy

It makes a difference to the early reservation period and people who invest during that period. The thinking is too allow friends, family and shareholders to invest during that period. I don't mind the thought but the execution could have been better. After a while it's like crying wolf and no one will care coz you have lost credibility.

The start date for WeFunder has changed again to Dec 3rd I presume due to the Wildfires still being an issue. Sure is disappointing to see this happen yet again *sigh*

Found out the reason. A campaign needs to have at least $5000 raised to show up on their listings. GIGL is currently at $3040.

WeFunder FAQ

Giggles n Hugs is currently not searchable on WeFunder.com and does not show up in their search results or listings. No one can get to it unless they have a direct link to the page it seems. Wonder why it is not in showing up?

Glad to hear it. I see the winds changing for GIGL.

A great start! Go go GIGL!!

It will if wefunder takes off

No one knows anything but a good question to ask at the next shareholder conference call to lay to rest the doubts and find out why the management would make a poor decision like this. They should know that it undermines investor confidence so hopefully they have a good reason.

Agreed. Good things ahead for GIGL!

Yes this is an amazing concept and I think they will do very well as people will line up for this.

Go GIGL!

Thinking of investing more in GIGL. Should I put the money into Wefunder or should I buy more stocks? What makes the most sense at this point?
Any advice would be welcome.

Ah didn't realize they had a maximum of a million. Oh well let's hope for that then. Thanks for clarifying.

Anyone want to guess how much wefunder will raise for GIGL?

We only need about a million to open as new location.

I am betting we will raise atleast two million! *fingers crossed*

Let's place our bets and see who wins! Who's in??!

Save the questions for the next call. Wefunder is a great opportunity for GIGL. Why lose hope now when we could be on the threshold of the break we have been waiting for. We are both in the same boat, lets not put holes in it when it is trying to sail. Instead let's put some wind in it's sail and wish it a smooth journey and calm waters ahead ~~~~

What information are you looking to get that was not tackled in the last call? They said they would do a fund raiser and they held true to their word. I am sure once they finish the fund raiser they will do another call to update.

True. We need to remain positive here. Wefunder is a great opportunity for current and new investors and the concept is still a gold mine waiting to be discovered. Let's give this our 100% support.

Glad to see some positive sentiment from investors on this board. Go GIGL!

Agreed. I believe they were being straight forward and honest in their answers and I am holding my shares for the long term as well.

Great job on the questions and keeping your cool this time around LTG *thumbs up*

Looking forward to this. Thanks for sharing.

Happy to see some positive speculation and good advise! Well said!

LOL classic LTG..haha ! :)

P.S. For any kids reading this....Don't Do Drugs!! LTG was only kidding....I think... :D

Just noticed this tweet that is also on their twitter feed. Did they just start selling toys? Sounds like a good move given Toys R US is defunct.

Sure he has to earn our trust. After the shareholder call there has been no news and no bloated PR's from them. One hopes he has learnt the lesson and will make wiser choices moving forward. I look forward to the next shareholder call to see how things have shifted.

LOL!! That just made my day....haha! :D

I like our puns LTG ..... How about we do funny (but gentle) roasts to get our point across next time....I think you would be great at that...lol

I'll start with one....
Phil and Joey sitting on a tree...G I G L I N G! :)

HC have you been spying on me! How did you know!!?

Are you advocating doing the things we have said he shouldn't be doing which is putting out bloated PR's and 'pumping' just to raise the price which is illegal btw.

I for one am happy he did not go down that path. There are better ways to raise capital than just the rights offering and hopefully they are looking at those avenues as we speak.

Yes his email was likely cookie cutter and appears to be bloated. This was before the rights offering so he was hinging his rhetoric on that likely.

Their fault lies in being not able to raise the needed capital and for not having the foresight to see how things will play out. I cant fault them for trying. The rights offering did not go as planned but did raise some capital that will help in some way so was that completely a disaster? They did admit on the call that capital is what they need to grow so let's see how they secure it with their next steps. Game isn't over until it's over.

Might not want to Tango but how about a simple Waltz to warm up first :)

I have about 1.3 million shares worth 50K and currently losing around 37K. I would say thats enough skin in the game given I am not a millionaire by any standards. I prefer not to put money over morality. Every heard of the timeless story of Mr. Ebenezer Scrooge?

Thanks hopeok. I like your name...gives me hope :)
