So they take the shipping and tax out of the gift certificate when it is redeemed not when the order is placed? Hmmmm Thought it was the other way around - glad I asked So on the order form do I do it like a Pampered Pantry with not tax or shipping

My brain is so fried right now trying to figure out how to hopefully do a good job on this shower
 
When you enter the gift certificate in PP or P3 it will know not to charge tax or shipping already. No worries!

Frequently Asked Questions

What happens to taxes when I redeem a Pampered Chef gift certificate?

When you redeem a Pampered Chef gift certificate, applicable sales tax will be calculated based on the total value of the products you select. The tax amount will be deducted from the gift certificate balance at the time of redemption.

Are shipping costs deducted from my gift certificate when I make a purchase?

Yes, shipping costs will be deducted from your gift certificate balance when you redeem it for a purchase. It's important to consider both the tax and shipping fees when planning your order to ensure you have sufficient funds on your gift certificate.

Can I use multiple gift certificates in one transaction?

Yes, you can use multiple gift certificates in a single transaction. However, keep in mind that taxes and shipping fees will be calculated based on the total order amount, and these costs will be deducted from the combined value of your gift certificates.

What if my gift certificate balance is not enough to cover taxes and shipping?

If your gift certificate balance does not cover the total cost of the products, including taxes and shipping, you will need to pay the remaining balance using another payment method to complete your order.

Do gift certificates expire, and how does that affect redemptions?

Pampered Chef gift certificates typically have an expiration date. If you attempt to redeem a gift certificate after its expiration date, it will not be valid, and you will not be able to use it for purchases, including any tax or shipping deductions.
