What are the best ways to utilize clear catalog bags for fairs and events?

[pamperedalf]

Clear catalog bags from Merrill yet? How do they compare to Nancy's old ones? Are they like the Heavy duty ones or are they like the flimsy ones?

I have 3 fairs w/in the month and I always have bags on hand. I still think it was a major mistake to let Nancy go. But what do I know.

TIA

I buy as little from Merrill as possible. Only order clothes when I am at conference and can try them on. Try to keep my supplies from someone OTHER than them. I haven't ever heard anyone talk about those bags from Merrill, sorry.

I try not to buy from them either. However I have not found anyone that sells bags like these. Do you know of someone else who sells those bags. I have tried google and get frustrated.

Try this site....I've never ordered from here, but I bookmarked it, because I thought that one day I might need stuff from here!

I just got some in today. I haven't actually put anything in them but they look pretty flimsy to me. I have definately seen better ones. My recruiter has some great ones...she's on vacation this week but when I can find out where she got them I'll post it!

Okay first there are no dumb questions. You have to learn and that's what we are here for. What I do for fairs I place an old Catalog (if I have any w/ a label about being old, give me a call for a new one), a recipe card w/ my info & referral label, then I am working on a flyer that I also put in there w/ a recipe/ coupon & upcoming specials. Then I have fundraiser flyers, wedding registry flyers, oppertunity info. So as I am talking w/ people I will give them extra info if they need it. I always have a raffle usually w/ a product (both April fairs I am doing the collasiplble bowl & then everyone one who marks yes or maybe I call them and tell them they won a free kitchen show. I will supply the ingrediants for 1 recipe. That's what I do, some people do more others do less it depends on what you want to do.
I know my an upline dir of mine who does fairs and says this is the raffle prize and does not give it out, she even says to her consultants she only puts it out to get their info.
