high volume today and its up!!!!!!!!!!!1
whats going on? do we see news soon?
bid .039 ask .075 that is sick!!!!!!!!
looks like the hoopla is over for now untill we get some more news.
what kind of following does stockgoodies have? how many people do u think this interview reached? how do u think it will effect the stock tomorrow?
hows the interview going any new news
PFSD has a product to help with the oil spill check out the video
here is the video
Click here: YouTube - Pacific Sands Tests New Gulf Oil Spill Cleanup Product on Racine Mayor John Dickert
is this your guess on what they will say.
video on ecogeeks about pfsd new product to help out on the oil spill trajedy. video look good and the products works really well. now all we need is for obama to give the ok to use it and this stock will take off like a rocket.
well we got the 1 mill+ volume day most were looking for and it was a down day. i guess some short term holds flipping for a quick buck.
i think we go higher. maybe to .12 but the thing is can we hold it. if we get news we can go higher and of course depends how good the news is. if we get some news i then say .14 if the news is really good then maybe we can break .20
i believed in mick. i also have added to my position over the years and now i own a boat load and am very happy.
i believe in mick. i knew one day he would make this company come to life and get known.
i have been in pfsd waiting to make the big score and looks like the wait may be over. its been a long wait 11 years but its going to be worth it.
i own a boat load also im long and strong. im waiting for at least $1.00 or more easy
if we get some 2-3 mill share days i think we go into the $1.00 range
NEWS could be huge for PFSD. if they develope a product for the oil spill and it gets used it could mean alot of $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ for all of us.what price target are u guys looking for? im long and strong. long term looking for $2.00+
short term.50. post what u guys think short term and long term al
here is an interesting thought. tell me what u all think of it.
it is hard enough for a small company with cash flow problems to get 2 product lines off and running successful. i know for a fact that the spa products is one of the best out there. so lets say mick makes pitches to the other big companies that make spa chemicals to go in partners with them. this will bring in a steadt stream of cash. then he can go full speed ahead with the natuaral choices side of the business because he will have the steady stream of cash. what do all you think of this idea.
NATURAL CHOICES products are AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i got a cheese sauce stain on my car seat about 2 weeks ago. i was to lazy to getit out then as it was it was to cold. i know very lazy of me. well today it was 70 degrees i thought i would give it a try , but didnt really expect much since it was there for 2 weeks. i used NATURAL CHOICES all purpose cleaner and it came out. the seats look like new i was amazed. PFSD products are nothing less then amazing. all we need is mick to get the word out and get some real exposure for these great products. al
over 200k now wow whaz up!!!! i like it
looks like another big volume day already 120k in volume
looks like another big volume day. 120k volume already
r u saying that the ecoOne line has run its course.
r u saying the ecoono spa line has run its course
what we really need is for the public to know our products and how well they work, or we r going nowhere. this year or next year i think we have some nice sum payouts to make so they need to ramp up sales fast so they can pay them.

Natural Choices Refillables is the newest product available from Racine's Pacific Sands Inc.
"Where's Curacao?" Mick Wynhoff yells to a couple of employees on the Pacific Sands' manufacturing floor in the former Hamilton Beach building on Rapids Drive in Racine.
They both shrug. A third employee jumps in and says it's an island off the coast of Venezuela in the Caribbean Sea.
Wynhoff (right) is interested in the quick geography lesson because Pacific Sands is the leading supplier of cleaning supplies to the island nation. It's not a major market - Curacao's population is about 140,000, just barely larger than eastern Racine County - but it's a sign of Pacific Sands' international reach.
The growing Racine company, which is publicly traded on the NASDAQ stock exchange under the symbol PFSD, has clients in the U.S., Europe and South America. (The name Pacific Sands is a carryover from a small West Coast company Wynhoff purchased and moved to Racine. The company was traded publicly when Wynhoff purchased it.)
Pacific Sands specializes in manufacturing eco-friendly household cleaning supplies. The company's top seller is its Eco-One spa treatment system, which reduces the overall chemical load of consumer hot tubs and spas. It also produces chlorine and phosphate free laundry, dishwasher and general cleaning solutions.
Manufacturing equipment at Pacific Sands' plant in the former Hamilton Beach building
at 1509 Rapids Drive in Racine.
The company runs on a relatively small staff, but still manages to develop, test, manufacture and sell its products. Pacific Sands employs two chemists, including a former chemist at SC Johnson, and runs a small lab dedicated to removing chemicals from commonly used products.
Wynhoff, who is passionate about banishing complex compounds from home and work environments, said most of their work is common sense.
"This stuff isn't brain surgery," he said. "It just takes more thought."
Pacific Sands' latest product is an example of a "green" company converting its eco-concerns into intelligent business. Pacific Sands recently released a line of chemical-free cleaners this month called "Natural Choices Refillables."
The glass, bathroom, degreaser and multi-surface cleaning products are sold as a concentrate that consumers mix with water in a spray bottle. Wynhoff laid out a number of advantages for consumers and for Pacific Sands:
* Bottles of concentrate contain enough product to fill four spray bottles (see right). In other words, consumers are getting four bottles for the price of one. (Labels developed on the concentrate bottles show how much of the liquid to mix with water in the spray bottles.)
* The concentrate is free of harsh chemicals and chlorine, which makes for a safer environment. (Wynhoff pointed out the irony of cleaning with toxic chemicals.)
* The concentrated cleaning supplies weigh less to ship. One truckload of Pacific Sands' concentrates is equal to 32 truckloads of ready-to-use products. The reduced weight will save thousands of gallons of diesel fuel, and save Pacific Sands thousands of dollars in shipping costs.
Wynhoff said he's hopeful the product takes off as an environmentally responsible way to replace traditional cleaning supplies. If all goes well, the Natural Choices Refillables will allow Pacific Sands to continue its growth into national and international markets.
Along with helping the company expand, Wynhoff said he truly believes in the importance of removing chemicals from our everyday environments. He's thought about these issues since growing up as a Boy Scout and using bio-degradable soaps on camping trips. Mixed with Depression-era parents who learned to get the most out of everything, Wynhoff said he's in touch with the need to conserve and create healthy environments.
"Bleach, ammonia, dye, complex polymers ... we've been painting the planet with a chemical paste and soup," he said.
As a parent of two young children, Wynhoff said his goal is to create products he'd feel safe using around them and even letting them use.
"We're dedicated to what we do," he said, "and there's the potential to really, really succeed."

This is really cool, I had no idea this business even existed! I must say that their website is rather confusing, and I still don't know how to buy any of the products. I hope they are successful and develop a user-friendly website geared towards customers.

Green Living Expert Annie B. Bond's Natural Flu Protection Kit
Wed. November 11, 2009; Posted: 03:04 AM
Are you looking to increase your ETF knowledge?
Rhinebeck, NY, Nov 11, 2009 (PRWeb.com via COMTEX) -- PFSD | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating -- Pacific Sands, Inc (OTCBB: PFSD | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating) is pleased to present The Natural Flu Protection Kit, the first product to emerge from the company's partnership with Annie B Bond and GreenChiCafe.com.
Annie B. Bond is called the foremost expert on green living by Body & Soul Magazine, and is the best-selling author of five books, including Clean & Green, Better Basics for the Home, and Home Enlightenment. Pacific Sands, Inc. manufactures, markets and sells a broad range of environmentally-friendly products. The partnership is designed to provide information, products, and inspiration for helping people put the green lifestyle into practice.
The Natural Flu Protection Kit includes an eco-friendly disinfectant that has the lowest toxicity rating and is approved by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), and an EPA-approved 100 percent botanical disinfectant. The kit also includes an alcohol-based hand sanitizer as recommended by the Center for Disease Control (CDC), but Annie's uses no Triclosan (a suspected endocrine disruptor found in every dolphin tested in an area off the coast of Florida); it is instead enhanced with essential oils.
"Nobody wants the flu, but we also don't want to poison our homes with toxic chemicals while trying to kill germs," notes nontoxic living expert Annie B. Bond. With this in mind, she has assembled what she considers the safest government-approved products to kill germs and to protect families throughout flu season.
In the Natural Flu Protection booklet, Annie shares what she has learned in over two decades of research into nontoxic living. Just like with antibiotics, when overused, disinfectants can lead to "superbugs;" bacteria that are impervious to all our efforts to kill them. Essential oils are not thought to cause this problem, and Annie shows how to use them effectively, with information on how long viruses survive on surfaces and tips on commonsense practices.
It is important to protect against illness, especially in the face of a global flu pandemic. This task is made more difficult by the level of hysteria that has been whipped up by many. In the face of alarming headlines and emergency government tactics, some people douse every surface of their homes with caustic bleaches and industrial-strength cleaners. Not only is this futile-no home can truly be made sterile-it also pollutes living quarters with potentially dangerous and toxic chemicals.
With the Natural Flu Protection Kit, Annie Bond addresses these concerns, giving people tools to kill germs, while safeguarding them against noxious chemicals. In the booklet she offers formulas and tips for d.i.y. home and personal spritzers using essential oils (tea tree, eucalyptus, oregano, etc.) that while they aren't government certified, they come with proven antifungal, antibacterial, antiviral and antiseptic properties. She also explains other plant-based materials (vinegar, witch hazel, aloe vera) that are effective in killing germs, molds and viruses, but are not harmful to people and animals.
Annie B. Bond's Natural Flu Protection Kit is a compact storehouse of powerful, natural antiviral protection that is safer for health and the planet.

remember walmart gave ecoone their highest score for a new product in walmarts research history. this sounds luke a good start of many good things to come.JMHO.
i also have tried many of their products,window cleaner, orange clean, oxy boost, oxy laundr detergent, oxy dish washer detergent, all purpose cleaner, mineral magic. they all worked as they said it did and some worked even better then they said.
i am a large investor so i wanted to try almost all their products because believing in management (mick) isnt enough. if your products arent good you dont have a chance. well PFSD has both great management and products. i continue to add on dips. our time will come and when it does look out here come retirement.
i am so happy that mick took over the company, before he took over the company was dead. i have owned this stock for nine years and i am a very big share holder. i always beieved this company could make it big, and since mick took over i believe it even more. witout mick thia company would have went under or sub sub sub penny something like .0001. i do believe like some of u guys that we r 1 or 2 big orders away from expoding.
ROCKET do u think 1 day we break 1.00
SOAPY do u think 1 day we will break 1.00 or higher
strange day today. very high volume today and no real movement either way.with the volume that high we should have moved up or down at least .01 was it mms trading among themselves? what do all u think?
