Did This Hostess Just Score a $1000 Catalog Show on Vacation?!

In summary, the speaker received a message from a hostess who is working a catalog show while visiting her sister in Texas. The hostess needed help with shipping and the speaker assisted her, discovering that her sister's order was $516. The hostess then revealed that her mother's order was even higher. The speaker then suggested the hostess become a consultant, but she declined due to lack of time. The speaker closed the show ahead of schedule and the total sales were $1418, with 4 orders including the $812 from the mother and $516 from the sister. The speaker and others congratulate the speaker on her success.

You guys are not going to believe this.. I just got home from a show, and I had a message from a hostess who is working a catalog show, she is visiting her sister in Texas, and needs help figuring the shipping- I return her call, and as I am helping her figure the shipping, I ask her how much her sister's order is, she said $516, I say, $5.16? she says, "NO, $516.00" ok, after I sit down, and catch my breath, I say, your kidding? she says, no, I ask her if her sister wants to make this her own show, etc, and she said, no, she does not want to deal with it, she just wants to order, and then she says, My mom's order is even more than this- I am like" WHAT??????" She then asks me if she can close this show ahead of the date we set, so everyone can get their stuff in plenty of time for Thanksgivng, and I say, Oh yeah!!!! Just in 2 orders, she has over a $1000 catalog show. I know she has other orders as well. I asked her if she was ready to become a consultant, and she said no, she did not have time for it, I said, It does not look like you need any extra time, you did all this on vacation!!!!
