I just realized they pulled this from the product line and I'm SOOO disappointed! With 4 small kids, this is perfect! I was waiting til this month to order them. Did they announce this at some point and I'm just a ding-a-ling-a-ding-dong to not have paid attention? Wahhh!

Any idea how long til they're on the outlet??
 
They were discontinued at the end of the F/W season. They announced it with all the discontinued product.You probably won't see it on the outlet for about 2-3 years when the 3 year warranty expires on all those just purchased.
 
Oh dear, I think your just ding-a-ling-a-ding-dong :) As of this Spring/summer catty they have been gone!!!!

Don't know how long til they are on the outlet though.
 
I have two brand new ones in my closet if you need...
 
My goodness Carolyn your like a walking PC shop:) :) And I thought I had a lot of PC!!!!
 
I have a brand new one in the box if anyone wants it.
 
I have one and I think I have used it one time. I use my small bar pan instead.

First of all...that's not *all* my stuff...that's only about 1/4th of my stuff...LOLOLOL
It's stuff I have collected over the years through incentives, sell-a-thons, directors packages, surprise boxes at NC, etc...I plan to start giving much of it away to my downline as incentives...

Wow, Carolyn, that's impressive! I wish I were in your downline, lol!

I hadn't thought of using the bar pan in lieu of the round stones. Thanks girls!

Seriously!! LOL
I have been working really hard for the last few months to clear stuff out of here. I refuse to do Cash & Carry with my customers because that'll hurt my sales & commissions...plus they'd be w/o warranties. So...I used to give a lot to my mom and SIL (but they are combining households in the next 12-24 months so they'll be unloading a lot of duplicates themselves)...my next move is to use it all as incentives for my downline consultants...

That's in the downstairs kitchen cabinet. In addition to the three shelves you see in the picture - there are another 3 shelves on the far left of that closet, plus a cabinet in the kitchen, a 3-shelved cabinet in the laundry room, a narrow floor-to-ceiling shelf unit in the garage and another 3 shevles in the garage LOL

A lot of the stuff is out of boxes because we use it at home and I use it at shows - but TONS is still in the boxes to be given away...
 
That's quite a collection.

I like doing shows at my DD's home. She has a PC closet in her dining room.
I open the door & show it off with a wave like I'm a model on The Price is Right. We went to soooo many shows & hosted alot before I became a consultant. We would get accused of being "plants" to help sell more. :D Everybody was trying to recruit us.

Needless to say, I don't have to take much with me when I do a show for her.

Now, I have to get back to work...I am trying to organize my spare room into my PC shrine. Where is Jilleysue anyway? Does she still do PC?
 
My aunt is a PC junkie. We were at her house once and started talking about PC. Apparently she has a couple boxes of stuff in the basement that she's bought and will just go down there to get what she needs. My uncle decided to bring up one of the boxes to show her addiction. She had stuff in there she didn't even know she had, new in the box!!! I know I'm not that bad, it doesn't last a second in the box, I'm tearing into the stuff as soon as I get it.
