Just thought I'd share, and see if anyone else ever had this! Two orders
with consecutive numbers happening within a second or two (obviously!) from one
another. I've been selling for over 20 years and I've never had this
happen!

I'm sure the really big shops get this kind of thing all the time! Anyone
else ever get a one-two punch like this?

That's fun! I've had it happen a couple times. Almost got three in a
row once, but the third order was off by one.

Just once as well. Took over 4 years to accomplish it. The order subtotals are
kind of crazy too.

It happens. Like you say, more often to "big shops" or volume stores.

But with many smaller shops that stick around long enough, too.
