I tend to use my slide at booths and events. It's useful and a nice prop to use when discussing the host rewards to onlookers. People can read the benefits if they're too fearful in approaching the table. lol

It's nice, on bright colored paper & laminated with the thick stuff, but when she told me the price for the copies and lamination, I about fell over! She even gave me a deal and charged me for the thinner lamination since it was more than I expected. 
I flip mine out & act all goofy with it & people seem to enjoy the comic relief! I say, (in a crazy infomercial voice) "but wait! There's more!" They ALWAYS laugh.

I made mine. I printed it off in color and then slid it inside clear page protectors that I punched holes in the top and bottom and then tied it all together with white ribbon. it actually looks pretty good.
And it totally gets the wow factor when I hold it above my head and let go. I am only 5'2 so it goes sprawling to the floor with a whoosh!
People love to see all the benefits all at once!
Your welcome to it (it is very similar to the other one that I found on here).... Remember Canadian Prices... Must Change!!!

It wasn't just you I swear!
I tried it 2 or 3 different days times- and then finally got it to work a few days ago.
It would say it wasn't unavailable.
