I just got this from the LemonAid Lady. I thought it could be a way to use our shopping bags, not just the product bags like she suggests.

My director sent that to me today too, and I have to admit, I am thoroughly confused by it! Especially from the "At the Party" portion forward.
 
Hmmmmm......this could work.
 
I Love this! Cant wait to give it a try!!!
 
I get the "bag a party" part--but the rest of it? Do they bring a bag from their favorite store? And then we work with that? I think it could be fun, just a little fuzzy on how this part of it works....
 
I put a little label on my postcards for the show I am having next Saturday that says Bring your Favorite shopping bag. I am going to give a little prize for the biggest, most colorful and my own favorite bag. How many gifts I give will depend on how many in attendance. Maybe I will use one of our reusable shopping bags as a pass around thing for a game. Everytime I say something about bagging a product or party or business, they pass it and at the end who ever has it, gets to keep it. I send out 62 invites for this party. It is a repeat host, so hopefully there will be a good turn out.
 
This sounds so fun and so different!! I love different. Thanks for sharing it Jane. Teresa good luck with your show next Saturday, let us know how it goes.
