I just received my replacement Dots Stemware from the SAT - I read the bright green paper included - "YOUR NEW dOTS sTEMWARE IS DISHWASHER-SAFE!!! How cool is that!

I am so excited - did anyone else notice that?
 
You received yours!? I thought they were still on back order until Nov. 2nd? That is very cool that they are dishwasher safe!
 
I got mine yesterday too.

Now - how do I keep the other set separate - so I know which ones are dishwasher safe, and which ones aren't?
 
That is great to know about the new stemware being dishwasher safe--hopefully I can sell more as most people love to put everything in the dishwasher and tend to shy away from some products because of the fact that they can't.

Good luck with your dilema, Becky. I don't have a suggestion.
 
personally I think they are too tall for the d/w.
 
I haven't seen them yet so I don't know. I guess it depends on which rack you put them on.
 
I got mine yesterday also, trying to figure out what to do with them, I have no need for them...

How about taking a permanent marker and writing a small D on the bottom of the ones that are dishwasher safe? Or putting a dot on it.
 
I've got a friend/customer who can't wait to purchase them when they are available.

Becky - it say we should use the old ones as displays at our shows - so keep 2 in your kit and the other 2 in a box in maybe your garage or office - and use the new ones for everyday use! Thats what I am doing! Gonna go grab a bottle of wine and test them out tonight!!! ;)

FYI - the product card says they aren't dishwasher safe - hmmm - maybe they forgot to correct that!
 
got mine this past MOnday and to be honest..I never even opened the box to check them out yet..just put them on my pantry shelf...how bad am I???
guess I better go check to see if the Green slip is in there
 
I just got my second set of glassware too! I thought that was werid that it says dishwasher safe! OH well, CHING!

I am keeping a set for me - I love them. But I do have a second set and a set that they originally sent (I'd have 2 but one came broken). I am going to fill them with candy and give one to each person on the team since they don't have them. I am going to give them the original glasses (and yes I will tell them that) so I'll just have the new ones here.

That is a great idea!:thumbup:

Hmmm, maybe I could use it as some sort of incentive.....

I would put the dot on the ones that are not DW safe. That way it won't wash off.

And Harriet, you can order them now. I have someone ordering 2 sets and had no problem - had the orange triangle but that just means they're backordered.

The incentive I'm giving them is that they show up for the meeting! :rolleyes:

I was thinking that too - for the Nov. 3 meeting. :)

I was thinking the same thing only maybe as a host incentive. I was thinking of filling them with something and tying tulle around it. I could just use them as Christmas presents for my team or other people. No cost to me, except to fill them with whatever.

Yep. That's the one.

Thanks, Beth. She knows they are on backorder and may order them next week when she gets paid again.
 
I was shocked by that too Dor! And I had forgotten that they were replacing them, so I was surprised to get them.

It says to use the non-dw safe one for display.

Me too--they won't fit on my top rack and they'll get crushed on my bottom rack. I'll continue to hand wash them all, so it doesn't matter to me.

I meant for when I use them all myself.:D

Keep them for a Highest Sales at a Show incentive!
 
I got mine on Friday, I haven't even opened the box! I'm excited about getting them, I just had a show on Friday and another show yesterday afternoon and I just never got around to opening them! I think I'm gong to get use my old ones for personal use. I'm only gong to bring those glasses to a show where I know people will be drinking wine. I should have brought them to Friday's night's show, they were drinking wine and they ran out of glasses!:rolleyes: go figure!
They broke my Wine bottle opener too!:grumpy: Thank God the show is close to $1000.00. I think the money it will take to ship back the opener won't be a big deal when I should be making around $275 from it! ;):)
 
How did they break the wine opener?

I'm not so sure how much I like it. It comes apart everytime I use it and I wind-up flinging the handle part across the room.
