Yes, you have a very good point there. Sometimes it's too easy to jump to conclusions. It's hard to push aside the initial emotional reactions and to see things in a different perspective. And, it's also funny how after you post a "vent", it just doesn't seem that bad anymore... it just feels...

Thanks ladies! That helps alot! I did not know that about the fourth month. I just put in a kit enhancement order not too long ago. Guess I hit the timing right to have it fall in my 4th month as well!

I'm just needing to vent a frustration here... my new recruit, who is just hitting her 30 days today, called me this morning asking if we are able to sell the new Fall products yet. I told her that we will be able to sell them beginning September 1st. That's what she had thought, too, but at...

I was wondering if there are any limitations on how many kit enhancements you can place in a year. My new recruit would like to add some new items to her kit and also for her personal use. I'm assuming that it would be better for her to order it under a kit enhancement since the discount would...

I, too, am in agreement with just letting them talk:) When I first moved to IA last March, my SIL had a party, which was my first one in my new town. There were over 20 people there, she was serving margaritas, and it was NOISY! I could tell some people were looking at me waiting for me to...

Now this is why I love reading tips on here! I would've never thought to use the 20%-off knives as a half-price items. I will definitely share this with my host tomorrow night. Thanks!

Does anyone know what the item number is for the new Fall RUFTH trivet that we're supposed get free on our 1st supply order? Thanks!

Thanks, Ladies! That makes perfect sense!

When I start in April (we're moving between now and then, otherwise it would be sooner), I have 2 shows lined up that will have co-hosts. I'm wondering if the co-hosts also get the host special of the month, or does it just go to the host? Just kind of wondering what the point is in having a...

On or Off?Is it a matter of preference whether to leave the rice cooker lid on or off? I made the Hazelnut cake the other night with the lid off. It tasted delicious, but part of it stuck in the cooker? Any tricks to get it all to come out nice and clean?

When I had my show, my director/recruiter had a host bingo sheet for me to use as a checklist with a certain dollar amount in free product depending on how many bingos or squares I filled as an incentive. One of her squares said, "Have 15 adult guests in attendance (Couples count as one)." I...

This recipe is for a standard size glass, so you would have to do some math to figure out how much to make for a pitcher... also depends on which size pitcher you're using. They are SO YUMMY!! I am salivating at the thought of them! A great fruity, tropical taste. Rum Runner 1/2 C...

I happened to talk to my Director tonight and asked her where she finds the frozen creamed spinach. She said that she has found it in the section by the TV dinners... she thought that Stoeffers (sp?) makes it. It has a really creamy romano and parmesan cheese sauce. Sounds good, so I guess...

For those of you who've made the Hot Artichoke & Spinach Dip (ATB, p. 21), did you have any trouble finding the frozen creamed spinach? I can't find it in my grocery store, and I even asked. What would you recommend using as a substitute? I picked up the plain frozen spinach... would this be...

I am new to the forum, and as I was reading through some of your wonderful ideas, I saw someone mention that they just did a Bridal Expo. Could you explain how this works, please? Where do you set up? How do you get the word around about it, etc. etc. Thanks!
