I thought I saw somewhere on here about buying supplies as a customer instead through the supply order form. What does everyone do? I was wanting to buy some seasonings yes they are cheaper on the supply form but if I bought as a customer then I would be helping my host and myself with commission.
 
When I have individual orders, I frequently put them together as a show and use the free product value to get seasonings, SBRC, etc. to use as prizes.
 
I do the same thing, as long as someone isn't in need of something right away. It's a great way to save on shipping, too.
