OK...now this is just odd...

Last monthes CN was soooooooo late. Now today, I receive the April CN. Now don't get me wrong. I am so excited. Love to get this each month. But the regularity of the mailing needs to improve. Hopfully this is is a sign of things to come.
 
CnI just got my March edition..... Geezzz somebody fix the mail outs:(
 
I got my March late as well, and then today I got my April too!
 
I got a March CN at the beginning of March, and then another one this week.....hmmmm, wonder when I'll get an April one?:confused:
 
I only got 1 March at the end of February, I got April CN today in the mail.
 
Maybe all our e-mails and phone calls worked.
 
I forgot that I received the April CN. Anything good inside?
 
Nothing really "stood out" for me as I read it the first time, but it brought a question to mind I'd like to ask HO tomorrow.If sheet pans are on "stop sell" for April, does that mean we CANNOT order them for KE month? I REALLY wanted one of each during KE month!
 
Don't have it, but that doesn't surprise me. Is it online?
 
It is online. I cheated and looked through it already!
 
How do you access the April CNN on line? Thanks!
 
Yes, it works :) WOOHOO!Thanks, Ruthie!
 
You're welcome :)
 
Thanks for sharing!

I would definitely email HO about that. They might let you if enough people want it - sure wouldn't hurt to bring it up.
 
Mine arrived today too! Maybe HO heard all of our complaints last month.
 
I haven't received my April CN yet but am not going to complain yet. I will see what happens next week. After complaining about March's CN I ended up getting 3 copies.
 
I think part of the problem with the Post office is it goes out as "bulk mail" which means they can deliver it last so to speak. It has the least priority.

I don't think that was the issue last month. I got plenty of other junk mail!
 
I got my April KCN on Wednesday the 26th - very early for me. A sister consultant who is a director just got it the day before I did.
