Well I have one that I use all of the time, and then this 2nd one new in packaging...I earned one when I first signed last year, and then another in my SS plus package....so I really don't have much invested in it... and I don't know of any other way to sell it, since the lifetime warranty wouldn't really apply....so I feel like I should be giving it away. And I was thinking of doing the rest of 2007....but then when we got the info that sell a thon is 2 months in a row, then maybe that is a good time to just do it!Kitchen2u said:

Do you have any other products sitting around that you can throw in as a special? You could do a kit enhancement order, and give that product away (if you haven't already done one) ...umm, or you can always pick another product, and plan to put it on a host's order in early August, and use their percentage off...
