My host from yesterday was wondering because she wanted to get a wedding gift for her babysitter. I know you can apply free product value for one, but can she apply her discount?

TIA

In the P&P it says:Each gift certificate order (including host purchases of
gift certificates) counts as a separate guest order.
Hosts cannot purchase a gift certificate using their Free
Product Value, at a discount or at half-price.

• Gift certificates cannot be purchased by guests using a
past host discount.
• Consultants may not purchase gift certificates on a Show,
but can purchase them on a personal order, applying their
Consultant discount.

Thanks, Amanda...I was SURE I'd had a host "purchase" a GC with her free value...now I'll have to remember who did that and look.
 
Hi there! Thank you for reaching out. Yes, your host can definitely apply her discount towards the wedding gift for her babysitter. The free product value can also be applied, so she can get the best deal possible. Let me know if you have any other questions or need help with anything else. Happy shopping!
