BOOOOOOOOOO............
No Consultant news for me yet. Will wait until Friday and then call HO:cry:
 
None for me yet either...
 
Mine came yesterday.
 
I haven't been getting mine until around the 20th or so of the month and yes it really doesn't do us any good of getting it that late. I don't know why it is taking them so long to get them to us.
 
I really think that they should be sending these out a month AHEAD. We should be anticipating JUNE's CN, not May. I've always thought that.
 
It really is useless, outdated material by the time we get it in the middle of the month or later! They should either get it to us before the start of the month or save some money and stop sending them. (I don't want that, though...I like having the nice colored pages to use for my monthly specials flyers.)

I gave in and called HO. They said they would send one out today. They are also stating that many post offices have them sitting in bundles in their loading areas and the mailmen are not choosing to deliver them. I thought this was a very novel answer - one that showed a great deal of thought....also one that sounds like a flimsy excuse by the direct mail vendor!!:rolleyes:

Right! :rolleyes: I don't have this problem with any other periodicals...and is it EVERY post office around the country?
 
I usually get mine by the 4th or 5th of each month. Something is rotten somewhere for those of you who aren't.
 
I don't think that my post office would be holding mine. The little town that I live in is only 1200 people. It is only me in the town that is a consultant.
 
Ashley, maybe the postal workers are reading through it to find out what's coming up with PC. :)
 
Just noticed on my mailer from Target that it says the same "postmaster please deliver between May 12 and 14" and it came today, the 13th. The CN says the same thing, ie. "deliver May 1-7" and yet it hasn't come yet and probably won't until at least the 20th. Not my post office's fault, I believe. PC has been using the same line about the local post office being the problem for several years now. For a while it was good. They must have switched printing contractors because it has gone back to being horrible the last 6 months or more.
 
Still didn't get mine...LMAO:grumpy:
 
Still not here in Akron, OH either ....
 
I got mine yesterday. The thought of postal workers refusing to their jobs is ludicrous. I have no problem receiving LHJ or GH, which are MUCH heavier than any version of the CN!
 
Not only ludicrous, but I think slightly against the law. The Post Office can't decide what they will and will not deliver.I got mine today. It's actually been coming about a week earlier than it was! So minor improvements. Just in time too, I have a booth on Friday so I can use the fliers! (I'm in Raleigh, NC area.)

Got home yesterday at 5pm - no CN in Thursday's mail..:(
 
Still no CN for me either! :(
 
I got mine yesterday.
 
I'm near Ithaca, NY, and still have not received it. Neither have my cluster-mates. One of them has a brother who works at a PO and he said they deliver them when they receive them, they don't hold on to them. It is a lame excuse the HO offers that the USPS holds them.I like having a hard copy for both the flyers and to take with me to read when I can, sometimes twice. I feel they shouldn't even say to deliver them in the first so many days of the month--they should be arriving to us a week or two before the month begins. I can't imagine other companys withhold info from their sales reps--we are a very, very vital part of this company.
 
I just called and was told that they are experiencing problems and that if I don't have it by next Friday to call back and they would send me "another" one. I was not told it was a regional problem. Wish I had it as I would love to show the cook and serve pictures (I need colored ink and have to wait for my next check to buy some).

Now it is Saturday - nothing came. Got an email from the Solution Center asking to verify my address. It said if it matches the address they have they will send one out in 2 days. Of course it matched!! I replied that it was the same address the monthly postcards are sent to - the same address my SAT products were delievered to as well as my change over kits. Maybe northern Ohio has a mail carrier that hordes CN in his/her garage too.!!!ha-ha-ha:eek:
