Creating Multiple Categories without Multiple Products

Some Zazzle shopkeepers were wishing the other day that they could place a product in more than one category that they'd set up in their Zazzle store without having to create a duplicate product. One example might be if you want orange and white polka dot patterns in the following store categories: Halloween, Orange, and Polka Dots.

You don't have to create duplicate products to get a design to show up in all three categories. Now that Zazzle groups similar items, all you have to do is move one product from a group into each of the categories. I've done that by finding products Zazzle's system is grouping together and splitting those up into different categories.

If you are a shop keeper that organizes their store by design specific categories where each design has it's own category (folder), you might be shaking your head about now thinking you don't want to orphan products in a broad categories in case you never find them again. You can still take advantage of Zazzle's grouping if you create a specific folder for the orphaned products from other areas of your store. For instance inside the Halloween category, create a category for "Patterns" and add just one product from each of the patterns in your store that matchs the Halloween holiday.

These ideas might make more sense to experienced shop keepers. If you're pretty new to the system and need a visual, here is a screen shot of the "edit product details" screen. When you choose edit from a product page, you can move a single product by changing the store category.

A Movie Day

I brought my nephews (not the twins, the older ones) to see Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix today. It wasn't intentional. I was looking at a month-old "calendar" in the newspaper. I had no reason to believe it didn't make it to the recycle bin a month ago, so I ended up at the theatre looking for Pirates of the Carribean: At World's End. It turned out for the best because since the previews were nearly over for HP, we didn't have enough time to spend another $12 on pop corn and pops! They didn't mind until about half-way into the movie when some sucker gave into demands for candy and pop corn from their children and took off for the snack bar. I heard this, "can we have popcorn?" from the general direction of Griffin. I figured I need to train him young that going to the snack bar in the middle of the movie is a waste of time and money. I am not completely heartless. I promised to make them popcorn this evening. As for the movie... The...
