Did Merrill introduce anything cool?
I assume they are still our vendor since we have the opportunity to get Merrill cash (or whatever it is called) from the last contest I can't remember if it was $150 or $300 value
 
Re: MerrillI didn't grab a new catalog, and the ones they had out on Day 1 were the same as those that were available at Conference.There will be some new HWC things available March 1 - water bottle, shirts, etc. They had a cash and carry area that was a madhouse. But they also finally learned that we're concerned about the sizing inconsistencies, and had a dressing room available to try things on.
 
Re: MerrillThey also offered free shipping on anything that sold out in the cash & carry area. I purposely waited til the end of Day2 to go there so they would ship what I wanted for free adn I wouldn't have to schlep it home. :)They did have some retiring items that were not available for order, though--hoodie sweatshirts, quilted bags, and a few others.They also had an area where we could order everything else and get 10% off.
 
Re: MerrillI got the new long sleeve brown shirt and it fit wonderful.

I got that shirt, too (the one with the pink accent around the v-neck, right?). Bought 1 size bigger than I usually wear, and it fits well.
 
Re: Merrillthey had some new stuff for women, but NOTHING for men... apparently they think this business is for females!!!
 
Re: MerrillAll the new stuff is on Merrill's site..... I just ordered something from it.

I have to say I am not impressed. There are no really nice shirts to wear in the summer and a regular sweatshirt would be nice... JMO though.
 
Re: MerrillCan we use PC$ at the Merrill store?

Great minds think alike Deb! I did the same!

I ordered the cute pink backpack $12.75 ~ much bigger than the Making Strides one they had. I bought a few for a consultant incentive...qualify in 30 days ~ of course, one for me!
 
Re: MerrillIs the backpack roomy enough to hold catalogs and host packs to take to shows? I need something that will free up my hands and it is soo cute! Annie

It's a separate company. Using PC$ there would be like using Best Buy gift cards at Sears.
 
Re: Merrilldid anyone get that sign they had? It was small, but great for booths. I didn't get it at the C&C for fear of messing it up on the way home. But now I can't find it on the website. If you ordered it, can you please tell me the "proper" name so I can call to see about ordering one?
 
Re: MerrillI wanted the brown shirt with pink edging but wasn't wanting to pay that price for a long sleeved t-shirt. I did get the nice suede jacket, the luggage tag and some other paperwork items.

Yes, it looked pretty big as a tote. Or you could adjust it to a backpack somehow!
