Met with Jim O'Brian.  He said that he was very pleased with the successes they had last year and was looking forward to another good year.  They have added 7 more corporate stores this year (now total of 12).  As a coop, they have more control over the corporate stores but still have the privately owned members as their main volume.  They plan to run several ads again this year.  Jim said that he thought they did not do enough with the Buy Now/Freeze Now promotion and plans to try to do more of that this year.
