Has any one ever hosted a Pampered Chef BINGO? I've been doing BINGO's every month for almost a year now. Their becoming really popular. I prepare several dishes. (My hosts usually bring one dish and maybe help with plastic silverware, napkins, ice - that kind of thing.) We start be me telling everyone about what we are about to eat and how/what I cooked them on/in. They load up their plates while I mingle a little and get ready to start. Then we start playing 3 BINGO's for smaller $1.00 - $5.00 pampered chef items then I talk a little about the products that I bring to show and tell. I talk recruiting, booking, hosting and specials - that kind of thing, then we play 3 more BINGO's. I usually also kick in a special P BINGO. If you get the P shape you win a prize worth $9-$15. (If enough people attend.) After that we play BLACKOUT. BLACKOUT is the only game where customers have to pay to win. $1.00/Card or $5.00/6 Cards. The prize is usually $20 - $40 in price. (And I usually make sure I've worked the system and gotten them at a really good price! Sometimes I'm the host.) This month's BLACKOUT prize was the Reversible Bamboo Carving Board. The BLACKOUT money helps me pay for the food and Prizes. I usually have 1 to 2 hosts per month and I've had up to 5 hosts before. This month's BINGO had 25 people. WOO HOO! I even got an extra Host and show that I closed tonight from that. I'm really lucky with the place I have them. There is a Club House where I live that rents to me for FREE! I've invested in two tables, and they have five others. There is a microwave, sink, refridgerator - so most of the things I do are pre-made.
Anyway.... This idea has finally gotten me on my feet and really helped me get out of that friends and family circle I've been stuck in. I wanted to share with everyone.
