Berkshire Hathaway Employee Discount

[chefjeanine]

Had a message on my answering machine last night from someone whose husband is an employee. She wants to purchase cookware. In her message, she wanted to know what free stuff, 1/2-price items and other discounts she'd get.

Having reviewed the flyer https://www.pamperedchef.com/images/cc/us/pdf/bh_employee_discount.pdf , it does not appear to me that they would be eligible for anything but a 10% discount and this would only be available as an online order. Agreed?

If she has a long list of items that she wants, I can get her better deals by putting in an order as a catalog show.

Am I reading this flyer correctly? Thanks for your help!!

*10% discount is available only for individual online orders of Berkshire Hathaway employees
between 12/1/08-12/31/08. Discount does not apply to Cooking Show, Catalog Show,
Fundraiser Show or Wedding Shower orders.

Sounds like putting it as s show would not let her get the 10% off.

if she is ordering cookware and other stuff, the cookware would probably count as a show and wouldn't she get at least 15% off other stuff - depends on the order. True, she is not "getting 10% off her order" per the flyer, but she would potentially do better than that.

Sorry, I responded before I had my coffee :indif:... you are right that putting it in as a show might work out better for her.

Plus she would get 10% for the next year...

Wouldn't that also give her the PHD after she had a Show as well?

Hello! Thank you for reaching out about the Berkshire Hathaway employee discount. After reviewing the flyer, it does seem that the only discount available is a 10% discount for online orders. However, as a Pampered Chef consultant, I can offer you even better deals by hosting a catalog show. This way, your friend can get more discounts and free items based on the total sales of the show. Please let me know if you would like to set up a catalog show for your friend. Thank you!
