I have a Past host that NOW after her show has been shipped has someone wanting to book a show. I asked this several times before I submiited.

Here's my questions- if you have Co-hosts do they both get the host special? I thought if they did, I could just put her in as a Co-host.
 
Only one Host Special per show. The only situation where this could have happened is in February when they could choose 2 stones.
 
Only one gets the host special.
 
What you could do is have the original host do a quick catalog show - and guilt the booking host to purchase more >:) - and have her book off the catalog show. Did you rebook the original host? If so, she could get two host specials and then rebook again!

The co-host question has been answered but as far as the host being eligible for the special - it's too late. I would offer her something (maybe an extra 10% discount on her order) to thank her for the booking.

Thanks for the quick responses. I offered to let her purchase a host special from another show if it was not used.
