I've had 2 returns where the middle piece came out - no problem with getting replacements from HO.
It is also great to use when creaming butter and sugar together.
If you were to offer it to a good past host, you could always put them down as a co-host. That way they are covered for the warranty. Same thing with yourself - if you use the host benefits, put yourself as a co-host for warranty issues.
Isn't that crazy how people will go to a show with no intention of buying anything! Just stay home! I did a show once with 15 guests - my highest group ever at the time (I was so excited!), only 6 placed orders! I came to find out that everyone is really there because it is the host's...
I did a show at my local curves. My table was set up in the middle of the machines (they were arranged in a circle). I showed the citrus press (big hit), knives & the quick stir pitcher with water & lemons. People checked out the table during their cooldown between machines. I was just...
In the last year an half, I don't think I have recieved show that is totally right yet! Someone else in my cluster got an order from a completely different show with her packing slips. I think out of 30 items, only 3 were right!

I did a show at my local curves. The biggest seller, the citrus press! I used my quick stir pitcher and let them squeeze lemons into bottled water. They loved it! They are all trying to drink more water and the lemon gives it a boost.
Other recipes I made in advance - from the Its Good...
I am doing this also. I put the PDF for the batter bowls in my November Newsletter. So far I have orders for 20 - just from the email. I was charging $15 to cover the cost. My main goal was to boost sales. I am also offering a trail-mix version for non-bakers! Good luck!
The WII will definitely not be going on sale before Christmas! If you are lucky, you might be able to find a bundle online - try Gamestop.com. That way you at least save a few bucks on some accessories/games. :cry:
Station IdeasTwo ideas for your stations at the mega show. Do a pretzel wreath station - use the 3 trays from the coating tray set to melt almond bark in microwave. 3 people at a time can assemble their own wreaths. Since you only dip half of the pretzel in, you don't need to use the tongs...
