I got my Panorama today and for the first time it came with a label pasted to the cover, without the clear plastic wrapper it normally has? Is that how others are getting theirs too? Assume it's a cost-cutting thing. :think:

I guess the good news is that readers will get to the CP ad sooner.😊 I still haven’t received my issue.

Mine came Saturday and was the same way (no plastic wrap). However, the label was easy to peel off without damaging the cover which was good.

Mine came today and ditto....no wrapper.
Likely cost savings but also one more plastic bag/wrapper not in a dump.....local plastic recycling does not accept bags, only items with the #1 and #2 recycling indicator.
Tim, interesting regarding delivery given we are so close.

i got one a couple of days ago and it did have the plastic cover. however there was also a letter reminding me to renew my PCA membership, so maybe that is why.

Well Rob, considering I'm in Old Hickory, getting mine before you did is impressive! And signde (Ryan) is in Nashville too and his came a few days ago, which was probably Saturday. You've been relegated to 2nd class. :lol:

I think you're correct re the plastic...better renew or else the PCA polizei will be paying you a visit. :think:

In case you missed it, we have a "Regions" sub-forum on Carpokes now with our Musik-Stadt club in the fold. :)
