Has anyone received their August CN yet? I'm really anxious to get mine, because my name will be in it for $15K career sales. Usually it comes the first week of the month, but it's already the middle of the month and it's not here yet!!:eek:
 
I just got mine today.
 
I also just got mine today.
 
I called last Friday to have another one sent to me and still haven't gotten it. And I'm only 1/2 hour from HO! Perhaps tomorrow will be my lucky day!

Me Too Kat! Can't wait to see my name in it!:)
Congrats to you too!;)
 
I have not received my copy either. I wonder why some months it is here early in month and others really late in month. I also called on Aug 7 and said I haven't received my copy and by Monday it still had not received so I again contacted home office and they said it was mailed on the 8th. A whole week. I wonder.

I was wondering when mine was coming too. I'm also in it for $15K career sales!
 
I haven't received mine yet, either....but congrats to all of you in the $15,000 club!! WAY TO GO!!
 
I don't get mine until the 3rd week usually. I hate the way it comes so late in the month. It does not make since, you would think they would do better to get them out earlier since a lot of consultants are complaining about it.

Still didn't get it...boo hoo.

Congrats Heather and Pamperedgirl3 for hitting $15K as well! Love that 2% pay raise!
 
I'm in Maryland and have not received mine yet.

My name was in it last month for the $15,000

I was number 11 with the fundraiser also.(home office sent me a letter and told me that, it was $4,482.50 - Relay for Life)

Congratulations on the fundraiser, Teresa!

I don't understand why the CN is coming so late either. It does no good to read it for August when it's the end of the month. I hate reading it online, but that's what I've had to do lately. I don't want to get information a month late.

When I started a year ago, I ALWAYS received mine either the 1st or 2nd of the month-occasionally on the last day of the previous month. But this year, it's been coming later & later.
 
Thank You - It was my first fundraiser
 
I hadn't even thought about how late in the month it was until I received mine today!

And I live 20 minutes from HO!

It usually arrives the first week of the month.

Maybe they are trying to catch up after conference...
 
I just assumed that it was sent out later than usual because we had just received the F/W Special Edition. I noticed that the August wasn't available online until last week sometime....

I usually recieve my CN by the 2nd or 3rd, but by then I've already read it online ;) I am quite impatient!!!!!!! LOL
 
Just received mine yesterday (8/16). At this rate, August and Sept. should have just been combined.
