I always keep a bunch of online coupon codes on my desktop for emergencies. Not 911 type of emergencies, mind you, but more like the "I'm supposed to have baked desserts for a big party and I don't have the time" type of emergencies. Some of the real gems in my collection are my Dancing Deer Baking Co. coupon codes, which have saved me from quite a few embarrassing situations.
There was one time, I was preparing for a friend's son's bris, and I had promised to organize the reception myself, to spare the young parents who were already under so much stress. What with the new baby, arranging for accommodations for relatives flying in, and trying to keep up with their work requirements, I certainly thought that they had enough on their plates. Happy to have my help, they turned everything over to me, and I was immediately overwhelmed by the number of tasks I had to complete before everything was ready.
But still, I was no quitter, and I took the bull by the horns and started preparing everything - I booked the venue, hired a caterer, made the invitations and sent them out. I even cranked things up a notch and booked some entertainment for the evening - a string quartet composed of students from the local high school.
I thought everything was going fine until three days before the big event and I was confirming the dishes with the caterer. To my shock and horror, there were no kosher desserts on the menu. Everything else was fine, but who ever heard of a dinner party without desserts? The caterer said that she was fully booked, and couldn't accommodate my request for extra dishes. Because this was an oversight on my part, they were not obligated to make extra concessions for me.
Frantic, I called up friends who baked. In an unbelievable stroke of bad luck, none of them could make kosher desserts for the party. One was out of town, another was catering a large wedding, another was ill, and so on. I could have done it myself, but I was up to my eyebrows in preparations for three other events.
Hoping against hope, I turned to the Internet. At first, I was discouraged - to order such large amounts on such short notice would total my budget for the event. But then I stumbled upon Dancing Deer Baking Co. coupon codes, and I was happily surprised that they could deliver everything I needed on the day that I needed it. Although they weren't a catering company, they were willing to deliver several boxes of desserts for the party.
The desserts arrived right on time, and the party went without a hitch. From that day on, Dancing Deer Baking Co. promo codes have always been included in my coupon "emergency kit".
