How has everyone's stoneware sales been this month? Mine have been crazy:thumbup: My show from Sunday is going to be so heavy when it comes in. I am having the show shipped to me because our delivery guy likes to play football with the boxes and I want to be able to take care of any breakage right away.

I had 12 buying guests and sold 18 pieces of stoneware:)
 
Mine were pretty good. I just had a fundraiser sent to my house and luckily for all of us they put the stoneware in several different boxes. One lady alone ordered 6 pieces of stoneware.
 
I sold very little stoneware in November. It was strange because I thought I would sell a lot more! Mainly the Hosts bought it...
 
not as many as I thought I would..... most people wished it was all of the stoneware

I've seen other consultants mention that they've had the products delivered to their house rather than to the hostess's house. How do you do that? Do extra shipping charges apply? BTW, my November Stoneware sales were so-so. I even offered free shipping to folks that ordered Stoneware.
 
I had 56 pieces sold, but not all of it was the sale Stones. People around here do love their stones.

Shipping is the same. Put host's name and the put c/o you name under it.
 
My stoneware sales were very high as well. I think my last host for November ended up ordering 8 stones herself!
 
I sold close to 100 stones, I actually need to count them up because I am curious. So far only one broken stone has been reported.
