Rhonda I PM'd you...Thanks!

I have a customer (my sister actually) who really wants a lid for her rectangular stone baker....if anyone has one new or used that they want to part with she would appreciate it! PM me or respond here! Thanks

I have made step cards for the recipes that I am demonstrating at my shows. So each step of the recipe has its own tool and on the back is some info about the tool such as what it is made of, dishwasher safe or not and the warranty info. This gives the person using the tool a little extra info...

Yeah... I want my sis to get the products for her and her friends...I am just glad that this happened to my sis and not a stranger!

I am fairly new here and seem to have had all sorts of problems with my shows. I have had two cc declined on two seperate orders, and now a FedEx issue on top of wrong merchandise in the box. I have only submitted 4 shows...ok I am done venting! My question is has anyone ever had FedEx say...

Thanks Ann, my show was on hold due to a cc issue and was released yesterday...so maybe within the next couple of days it will show up! That is good info to know! :)

I have a couple of quick questions. When you submit enough in sales to qualify does HO send you an email? Same question for your PC dollars and free website for 90 days. I submitted my show on Friday that should have done all of those things for me and I haven't heard anything from them...

I am glad to hear that it happens for more reasons than just no money in the bank. I don't doubt that this person has the money, I just don't want to run into any problems in the future. I think that her card might have been from a credit union, so that could just be the issue. Only time...

You didn't sound harsh, I posted this question in order to get advice. I am thinking though if her cc is declined and her check won't cash then the only smart thing for me to do at her show is to ask for cash for her order. If she has the money it wouldn't be that hard to go to the bank and...

So, when you call HO can they tell you why the card was declined? Now that I am thinking about it I am not sure if I had her address in P3. I think that I did, but I am not positive. I like all of the advice that everyone is giving. It seems that just like with everything else in this...

Nice to see someone so close to home! Thanks for the welcome!

You guys all have great advice. I think that my gut instinct was to try and cash the check and definitely make sure all checks clear before I close her show out!

You are lucky that you haven't been burned. This was only my 3rd show if you count my own grand opening. I just hope that when I get her check and take it to her bank that it goes through without a problem. I would like to keep things as simple as possible for her!

Ok, so I had one of my first shows last weekend and we just closed it out last night. I recieved an email from HO that one of the guest's credit card's was declined on a $21.00 order. Not too big of a deal, but she is a future host and is hosting a show later this month. To make up for the cc...

I also recently made the Chocolate Mint Silk Torte, but I substituted peanut butter cups for the mint candies and substituted vanilla extract for the mint and it was delicious! I made my husband take it to work so that we would stop eating it....it worked out well though!
