Did You Miss Out on the Conference Bag and Charms?

[ShanaSmith]

I didn't get it either. It is pretty cool to see the bag, but it was fun trying to catch the first glimps before.

hmmmm..... very strange that some people got the email and some didn't and that there are so many inconsistencies!
But I do love that bag!!!!! I can't wait! Gosh, I'm getting so excited!

I didnt get the email, I'm a Director AND a first time attendee. HMMM.
Regardless, I LOVE THAT BAG! I swear Home Office spoils the heck out of us. I *love* this company

You know Laura when I read your post and then I looked at your experience level, I became even more impressed with you! You are a little go-getter, aren't you!
Great job on all your accomplishments in this past year! Wow, what an inspiration you are! I sure wish I could meet you this year, wish you were in my wave or vice versa! oh well... some day!

I keep looking at the bag and thinking it would make an AWESOME diaper bag! I love the pouches in the front. I'm currently using a different PC bag as my diaper bag. It is huge though. This looks really cute. I am going to use it at conference. I didn't use the messenger bag at conference because it was kinda bulky and I didn't carry that much stuff with me day to day.

I use the one not from last year, but the year before (25th anniversary bag) as my briefcase that I take my laptop in to shows. My kids fight over the one from last year. My boys have carried it to school and my daughter plays with it around the house. I was keeping it "special" because i liked it so much. I like the tan outer cover. I think it looks simple and clean. But my kiddos found it and claimed it. Oh well!

After Kristi sent it to me today I remembered seeing it too.
I think it came in my mail. I haven't signed up for this conference and have attended many.

You're sweet, thank you!
And hey - You could come to conference REALLY early and hang out with us at Wave 1 after-hours!

this is the first time to my knowledge (since I have been selling it) that they have ever told us before conference what the bag was going to be. I never knew about the bag until I got to conference the first year I went!

 

[smspamperedchef]

Thanks for starting this thread! I remember getting the e-mail ages ago but have since forgotten about it. Makes me more excited to go now too!

Great idea! I'm having another baby soon & will (boo hoo) have to start carrying around a diaper bag. My daughter is 2 now & I just carry a diaper & some wet wipes in my purse for her. But maybe I can drum up some business as I will have to carry around a bag again!

Yep, they've never shown us the bag before conference in the past. I kinda liked the surprise. Oh well, at least the bag looks cool and looks a little sturdier than in past years. I like the charms!

By the way, I didn't get the email either. I happened to see the picture on here when I was looking through the file section a few days ago. I missed the discussion about it on that other thread so it was a BIG surprise to me to see the picture. I can't wait to get mine!

No problem Sharon!! I can't wait for Conference!!!

I wonder if they know that there will surely be *someone* out there that makes up their mind to go to conference because of how cute the bag is. LOL I would... if I were a fence-sitter...

 

[PampMomof3]

Yeah, my recruiter is ticked b/c she really loves the bag but she's due on July 15th. She really wants that bag!

 

[momoftwins]

I bought the bag with all the pictures on it from 2 years ago from someone on LMAD because I couldn't go to conference that year (couldn't travel that far into my pregnancy with my twins)!!!! I had to have it! I use it for my catalogs, etc to take to my shows!

That is exactly what I thought when I first saw it. Since I'm toting the diaper bag around so much, I might use it for that to advertise more! Can't wait to get my hands on it!!!

 

[PampMomof3]

Amen!! I agree! Luckily, my kids are 3,5 & 7 this year so NO more diaper bag for me!!! Yeah!!!

 

[momoftwins]

I went back through my old emails (I have sooooooooooo many to clean out) and did find the email with the bag and charms. I remember the bag but I didn't remember seeing the charms before - strange! My twins are 21 1/2 months old so I still use a diaper bag and this will be perfect for it!

 

[PamperChefCarol]

I must be in the minority here... I don't really need another bag. I know, slap me, but I have last years, a catalog tote, a black/khaki tote that my Exec Dir gave me (which I use all the time) and a black brief case style one. Up to my ears in bags. What I really want is an apron! But, hey, free is great, and it sure beats a kick in the head as my Dad used to say!

 

[katie0128]

I love bags... I'd be more than happy to take any off your hands that you don't want!

 

[heat123]

Bags are like shoes, the more variety the better! I switch out all my bags like every 6 months! Although lately I've been using the Vip Ribbon tote and have just been switching the colors of ribbons and have gotten a couple of compliments on how cute it is! I can't wait to get the new confrence bag!

 

[mommyhugz1978]

I Love bags too... I can't wait to see this up close and personal!!!! I like the one that we got last year... I use it for school!!! I also have the VIP Ribbon Tote and I use it as a purse!!! I get alot comments on it as well..

 

[PampMomof3]

I LOVE my VIP ribbon tote and can't wait for this new bag. Hmm, I wonder if it would carry our laptop sideways.

 

[heat123]

Personally I hope it's smaller so it can be used like a purse size bag! I don't really use totes for shows ( I have the rolling case that I use for folders and such). So I'm crossing my fingers its not too big!

 

[janetupnorth]

I just plain love free...

 

[raebates]

Amen!! I agree! Luckily, my kids are 3,5 & 7 this year so NO more diaper bag for me!!! Yeah!!!

Now, see, I missed the diaper bag for a few years because it held everything. I could take whatever I wanted with me, and no one questioned it. Now I just carry a big purse.

My name is Rae, and I am a tote-aholic. I mentioned the new bag to The Furry Guy today, and he just rolled his eyes. He's of the opinion that two is one too many. I'm cute and a really good cook, though, so he forgives me this [cough, cough] one [cough, cough] minor flaw.

 

[PampMomof3]

You're so cute Rae!! I can't wait to meet you in person!

 

[raebates]

I'm not nearly as cute in person. The Furry Guy is blinded by good cooking.

Yeah Sure!!

 

[ChefRhondaFeuer]

In 15 yrears I have never seen PC send a picture of our "surprise" bag. I am suprised to see the picture here as well. I would bet it was not ment to be shown.

[PampMomof3]

Yeah but HO sent the email out to consultants. I can forward it to you if you want......

I just plain love free...
