Has this ever happened to you?

The other day, I was trying to place an order to replace raw materials that we use to create your wonderful Samantharoma products...but every website I went to, I couldn't get the forms too function properly. Wondering if this was some weird cyber coincidence, I checked our website...and sure enough couldn't place an order. In fact, the buy now buttons didn't even show up! After checking with Kendra, our super smart web-guru, she advised me to empty my cache. Now I didn't have a clue what a cache was but apparently it needs emptying periodically! It was very simple and fixed the problem right away.

Each time you access a file through your web browser, the browser caches (i.e., stores) it. In this way, the files (including any images on the page) do not have to be newly retrieved from the remote web site each time you click the Back or Forward buttons. You should periodically clear the cache to allow your browser to function more efficiently. Go here to get instructions on how to clear your browser's cache...and do it!
