I am wondering what you veterans do with your Consultant Tote that comes in the kit- to pack the products so it's not so back breaking to carry!:cry:
I had my first show this weekend. I took my tote- and kept only the Kit items in it, and a couple of dish towels, and two regular 8x10 photo frames I used for my specials-flyers. Then I had a clear Rubbermaid-type tub that was about the same size as my tote. It had my Deep Casserole Baker/Lid, my tool-turn-about full of gadgets, a pitcher, the salad spinner, easy decorator and cookie press. It was so light in comparison to my tote which just weighed a ton! It doesn't seem like that much in there that is so heavy. I have the large bar pan, cooling rack, muffin pan, and cutting board in the long pocket, the skillet and mandolin in the other smaller pockets, then my Batter bowl and Simple additions and other stuff in the middle section.
Is it just because it's a fabric bag that the weight just sags in such a way to make it so much heavier than a solid-tote that distributes the weight more? I'm thinking of just not using the tote at all and switching to solid totes to try them instead.
But I thought I'd ask you guys first. ??
