Hey K&CP, I never worry about waiting till the end of the month to post -- when I have items ready, I go ahead and list them. I do try to space out renewals sometimes, just so I have some items more recently renewed. But when I'm shopping (which is way more than I should be!) on Etsy, I never think about when the items were actually listed.
It does seem the team participation has fallen off a lot in the last couple of months, doesn't it? I'm still around and happy to participate! :)
