Re: [UG-ADMINS] Sticker Exchange

This sounds like a great idea Joe!

For those user groups that would like to have stickers printed, this link
<https://www.stickermule.com/unlock?ref_id=1015170701> will give them € 9
discount at stickermule.com. I will motivate our local communities to get
their sticker packs ready for you to pass around in the US. How many would
you need/want from us here in the EU?

James, can you bring UK user group stickers to PHPNW? I will also bring a
box of BENELUX UG's as well for a pan-European exchange :-)
