I just received my 2nd set of supplies. I ordered Item EE85 (Take a Closer Look) which is the cardstock weight insert sheets for my bookings binder on the opportunity. I figured it would be the new updated version, containing the new kit info. What arrived was the old one - with the old kit - old pictures - the same one I already have!!!

I know it's only $1 but still...if it's on the new supply order, why isn't it updated? I just emailed PC to please adjust the cost. Disappointing! I really wanted it for my shows in March.
 
They are really messing up. I just got my supply order and they sent me 2- Trifle bowl display card, 1 simple additions display cards and consultant business binder-which I never ordered. Oh well!!:rolleyes:

I think everybody gets the binder with your first supply order - its the new binder that comes with the new kit.

You were supposed to get that stuff (minus the extra trifle card) with your first supply order from the new season changeover. You should have also received a CD and a DVD.

This may come across wrong, but did you order the free sales receipts or thought that they would automatically come? I forgot to order them this month so I have a note to myself to make sure I do when I send in my March supply order.

What did they say by the way?

They saw that they were on the order, appoligized (sp?) & sent them out the same day, got them in 2 days....the free ones I dont bother with, cuz its too much of a hassel....:rolleyes:
 
Thanks, Ginger for clarifying this. I just wasn't sure with remarks about stuff included and wasn't sure who expected what and not.

once again...THANKS!!!:D
 
Your welcome Ginger and thank you too!
 
I got extra trifle cards and SA card too...
 
Question - is the White Business Binder for our 'recipe for success' instead of the brown/beige one we have? I had no idea what it was for or what all the cd holder slots in the back were for :confused:

Yes, I replaced the ugly brown one with the new one. It looks so much nicer.:)

I feel the tablescloth is ugly as well...I always use my red,white & blue one ( well not really those colors ) & it cleans up GREAT!
 
If you look at the Supply Order form on Consultants Corner, updated items are printed in BLUE - if it's not updated it's just printed in black.

That should help when deciding what to order.
 
The TAKE A CLOSER LOOK...Inserts for this season are actually numbered ES24, that is probably why you got last seasons and not this seasons. :o) And they are $2.00 this season as well. HTH

The CD slots are for the various computer CD's we get from HO: reproduceable forms, PP install, etc.
 
A Friend said she also got the 30 minute chicken recipe on cards.... I think ??.... but I am not sure if they came with the changeover or her first supply order. Does anyone know about this?
 
The 30 min chicken cards came in a separate mailing in January.
 
I also got the 30 chicken in my first supply order!
 
I didn't get anything about the 30 minute chicken.

I didn't either, and she was looking at me like I should have. That is why I asked. I guess I could e-mail HO and see what is up....
 
I was helping my director in her office Friday to get organized and she has all the new "Recipe for Success" page replacements and the new binder. While I knew that I didn't get a binder in my changeover kit, we were guessing that only directors got it?
But today when I went to put my new pages in...all it was was a business guide, looking like it is replacing the "Success Starts Here" guide? But then the last index tab says "our products" and there are no pages for it.

I'm so cofused.

I never got the 30 minute chicken cards either.
 
Neither did I. : (
 
I never got the 30 day chicken cards either. I downloaded the information off of Consultants Corner. I think you can order them on the supply order but didn't think (could be wrong) that they were free with your supply order.
