Part of the equipment we'll need for the Mastic campus is banners and signage for inside and outside the building, which is a huge item. We're going to renew all the signage on the Ronkonkoma campus too as it's definitely showing signs of wear and tear, so we need two of everything.
With the best prices we are aware of, this would all cost over $4,000 (yes, we do have a lot of signs - not many wonders, but plenty of signs).
So rather than spend that kind of money, I sent the graphics files to my friend Basil D'Souza in Mumbai and he has got everything done for me for $267. No typo folks, $267!
Tonight I'm taking a little trip in the interests of sound economics, flying over to Mumbai with Air India. I'll stay there a few days, catch up with Basil, spend some time with the good folks at his church and come home next weekend with all the banners, saving at least $3,000 in the process.
I know it's out-sourcing and we're not meant to encourage that, but the chances are that your shirt was made over there too.
