There isn't an item number for the free 7" spreader as the guest special in February. Will HO just send them as needed? I keep meaning to call HO but figured I would ask here first.
 
In the past, HO just sent it when there was a "free to everyone" special. I was in P3 this morning and there was an update, which may have included that.

That's what I figured. Thanks!
 
Does the host get this too? Or does her her have to be above and beyond the FPV, host special and half price items???

I would think so, they can qualify for other guest specials.
 
I need a 48" spreader. With the size of my lawn, I'll never get weed 'n' feed down with a 7" spreader.
 
What A Hoot!!!!!

Would you quit hijacking my threads?!

Okay JK, it's fun to see what you have to say. I do have to say that I ran into you at conference last year. I always wondered who the man behind all the comical posts was.
 
Just FYI, you need to enter GP34 for every buying guest. It is now in P3!!
 
Good to know thanks!
 
If my host is using her FPV, 2 60% items and 2 50% items (but nothing above and beyond) does she still get the FREE serrated spreader??

If I put it on her order - and she is not supposed to get it, what would happen?? The show wouldn't be held up or charged extra???

Thanks!

If she's buying something, she gets it. Put it on everyone's order in Feb. to be safe - that's what I'm doing! :)
 
I am putting it on everyone's order too. I do not want it to not be sent b/cI did not add it. So, I figure better safe than sorry!:D
 
Yep, just finished putting it on 17 orders for her show!!! So I addded it to her host order too. Hopefully she gets it.
 
In the last Weekly Bites (I think that's where it was, I'm not sure - it could be the one before), it said you do NOT have to list the product number for the spreader. It will automatically ship w/ each order.
 
hmm, I entered all of my orders with it so far, just in case.....??? better safe than sorry!
 
It is in the Feb 5th Weekly Bites:

Free Serrated Spreader for Every Buying Guest in February
In February, all buying guests will receive the 7" Serrated Spreader from our Bamboo Serving Set! You do not need to enter an item number for this promotion. We will automatically ship one Serrated Spreader for each buying guest. Encourage your February hosts to share this information with all guests to increase their Show attendance.

(And yes, better safe than sorry :))
 
Well it's good to know, just in case I forget a guest or two?!? ;)
 
Well KG - I guess you could place 7 orders using faux names and with a little imagination and some duct tape I am sure you will be successful with your yard spreader :D

oh no, am I reading this correctly?
I just put in an order lastnight for 15 people and I didn't list the spreader for any of them. I thought it was automatic. Thats what my recruiter said. Is there any way to change it?

Don't worry - it is automatic - they will ship out the correct number with your orders. Just remind your host to put them in each order!
 
ok, thanks. I got really worried there. That was my first order I placed and I didn't want it messed up.
 
I would put it in, just in case. I used to work in warehousing.... picking orders (other companies... Amazon, for one) and I'll tell you, if its NOT on the picking slip then it is easily forgotten. Even if they are supposed to grab one automatically, every time, they dont.

Just a way to cover your rear. :)

That includes our hosts too when they are sorting the orders. Also, on outside orders they might not understand why they got it if it's not on their receipt.
