Hope not. =( Really like her products, at least the 5 I own.

I'm gonna miss her soap, it's been way too long since I ordered. I've been trying to use up some of the stuff I already have.

 

[elsmooth]

That came out of nowhere. If true, that's a sad thing indeed. A very respected woman, and many here are fans of her offerings. Take care Sue, and don't be a stranger!

 

[rockviper]

Sad news indeed. All I can say is "Thank you, Sue!"

 

[coachschaller]

Sad, sad news. I wonder if she will maintain a store front...

 

[barneykiller]

Sue I hope you reconsider. John thanks for the heads up I placed an order.

 

[Josh_WA]

That sucks... I just ordered a bunch of mama bear soaps as I have heard they are awesome and I like to support small business.

 

[Leopold Bloom]

Is she still taking orders? Have been meaning to buy some.

 

[Austin]

Farewell Sue.

 

[echotron]

I just placed a small order ...

 

[DunEdinRanger]

I hope she decides to sell her existing stock. I loved her Brute scented soap. Tis very sad news indeed.

 

[drocu]

Wow...that's terrible news. I know that Sue's products are well regarded here at B&B. I wish her the best.

 

[jhire70]

Wow how unfortunate!!

Wow that is out of the blue, especially after she posted this on 5 July:

I sold a business 7 years ago that was just work to me and began making soap. I still love it as much as I did when I started out to this day. It's not work anymore.. it's more like indulging myself. I have the most incredible suppliers and customers you could imagine and that makes this the perfect job. I am happy and those were words I never thought I would use to describe my job... it's not just a job, it's what I do and who I am.

Hope it is not true.

It appears to me that the Facebook page is closing, but there is no such indication that I can find on the website (http://www.mamabearssoaps.com/).

Perhaps I am overlooking something, or perhaps ordering from website will remain possible.

 

[California Cajun]

I'm sorry to see her site go down. I did my best to support her efforts the past two years.

 

[ironfisted]

Aaaaaaah! I just discovered her soap and it's my hands down favourite. Thanks for the heads-up, I ordered up half a dozen tubs. Not enough to get me through a shavepocalypse, but enough to keep me going until she hopefully is able to get back online.

Seems like the kind of thing she'd let us know about herself, doesn't it?

That's what I was thinking as well. Maybe someone hacked her facebook?
