I know today is the deadline for Christmas orders but what time do they need to be in by?????

I just found out today that my big brother and his family are going to be here this weekend, until the 22nd or 23rd! We have been on the phone, and emailing so much lately regarding my Mom's care, and he decided we need to all be together to discuss it face to face. Right now, he is stationed...

My contract was up with AT&T and so I upgraded and renewed my contract. I got a Blackberry for free and my husband a new phone for free as well. BUT my new service was going to be over $150 a month (just adding the upgrades I needed). I started browsing through Sprint (something I should have...

I was thinking of making some of these again this year for Christmas presents, they are always a hit, but had a lightbulb moment of how or what PC spices/rubs could I use. I always use the PC Dill, but would I use something else instead of say, the Ranch dressing mix??? Anyone have any...

My family is changing things a bit this year, we have to dress up and attend in costume. I have until Saturday evening to come up with something for four of us. Problem is I'm super short on cash, and I don't have much time to complete anything. PLUS I have NO idea what to do! Its for my BF...

I know you can cook a small turkey in the DCB, how long and at what temp would you do a ham? What do you think would be the biggest size you could cook in it?:chef:

I am celebrating this morning- it feels like Christmas came early! I got a big box full of my "kit enhancement" products. After my PC $, I only ended up spending $40 of my own money for: Apple Peeler/Corer/Slicer Can opener kitchen shears beaded serving set and spreader silicone...

So, I have my annual christmas party for work tomorrow. it's 830 pm and I can not decide what i want to take. nothing sounds good. Although I bought groceries yesterday, i'm finding that I do not have everything I need. My BF has offered to run to the grocery store if need be, but the roads...

We had our team Christmas party last night. A sister consultant had a new consultant there (he just signed). He brought his wife as well. I walk in and this couple is are the only ones there along with my director and the director whose house we are at. The first thing the wife does to me...

My director has a policy of NOT handing out recognition gifts (business bucks) unless you come to the meeting. I'm assuming that applies to her Christmas gifts as well since our Dec meeting is basically a party. Now, my team really hasn't been doing much, so I haven't handed out any bucks...

Please vote: Operation Christmas ChildMy church participates in 'Operation Christmas Child' every year. It is when we load shoe boxes and send it overseas to children in need. There are many other churches that participate as well. Our church made a video and it is on the OCC website. The...

I was wanting to send out a christmas card and mini catalog to my top 40 customers of 2008 and I wasn't sure if I could get that information from PPP.. ANYONE know? I just spent 10 min. looking around but I don't seem to see that feature..

Just doing a little survey. What is the date for the last show you have booked before Christmas?

I must be brain dead. I can't find the links saying what the deadlines are for receipt by Xmas. Does anyone have this info handy? Many thanks.

I have to tell the Story at church tomorrow night during my AWANA class. I want a different way to tell it. I know that East has the Resurrection Eggs and different ways. Does anyone know of one for Christmas? I want to do more than just read the story. I want a way that will stick in the minds...

Anyone know what the deadline is to get orders in and be able to receive them by Christmas? I didn't see it on the PC website. Thank You.

Got this from my Cluster Mate tonight and it sounds like a neat way to get some people "off the fence" for January bookings! She said she had already gotten a couple of bookings (the two earliest January ones) taken! WOOHOO!:D I just sent it out moving everything up one day since it's December...

Do you guys give Christmas gifts to your really good hosts (or repeat hosts)? If so, what do you give? Items, coupons, both?

Does anyone send Christmas cards to past hosts/guests? Does Merrill or anywhere sell anything like that?

After reading the thread on the Black Friday sale, which I did not do, I am thinking about doing a "12 Days of Christmas sale", starting on Monday,and offering different specials for each day to submit by the 12th. Like, order on the first day of Christmas and get 10% off, but sending out emails...

Anyone doing the "12 days of Christmas" this year? I was thinking of doing it as a fundraiser this year and was wondering what everyone else was doing. I will post my poster when I get it done.

This may not be the best location for this, but I am looking for some gift tags that are product specific. Like "We Whisk You a Merry Whisk-Mas" for a whisk or "You Spice Up My Life" for a spice. There are also some for the measuring cups (which is what I want) but can't seem to remember what...

When is the last day we can submit a show and the host receive it close to Christmas? I have a fundraiser going from Dec 1st -Jan 15th. We are closing one on Dec 12th which is the benefit holiday party and would like the guests to get their items in time for Christmas. What do you think? We...

We have two cats that are 4yrs old. One of them, Lacey will not leave the Christmas tree alone. It is a fake tree, she doesn't climb into it, she just constantly chews on it, then she will throw up. First I am tired of cat puke, Second I'm afraid she might bite into the lites and electrocute...

My host came up with a game for us to play . . . Using the back of the order form write down as many gifts as you can find that are UNDER $10 - you have 2 minutes. The guest with the most items wins! It was a success! The winner found 15 items in 2 minutes. Have them call out what...

I know that somewhere on this site is a Christmas Open House flyer that I would love but I don't want to search through all 11 pages of the threads right now. I am going to try and make one but I have a question. I have a list of Christmas gift ideas on piece of paper that has a Christmas tree...

I'm doing an open house with 5 other types of consultants tomorrow. I need to make a catchy Christmas Flyer for my table. Each customer will be greeted at the door when they come in and for filling out a contact sheet they will get 1 raffle ticket, they will also get one raffle ticket for...

I was at Hobby Lobby yesterday, getting supplies for Homemade For The Holidays shows, and I found the cutest Christmas ribbon in a Dots pattern! I bought it in a wide, wired ribbon, and also a thin ribbon. I used the wide around a layered small batter bowl, and around the bamboo bowl w/ S&P...

I can't believe how many Christmas presents that I've been able to get already (usually a last minute shopper) by trading PC. My next host is going to get a lot of outside orders that I've collected from other vendors. At the last couple of craft fairs I worked, I picked out items from other...
