Just a question I forgot to ask today. Thanks!
 
On your guest sales but not the host order if you are the host.
 
Anything that you purchase using the % off isn't commissionable.
 
if you are having one of your kick off shows at your house list your husband or mother as the host but have it shipped in C/O to you. You will still get commision and you get the host rewards as well !!

Great idea! Thanks so much!!!
 
Just a reminder...here we go again with "If you name isn't on the receipt, do you want to run the risk of claiming it as an expense on your taxes..."
