I got soooo excited when I saw them, that I over nighted them:eek:
I do have a BIG party coming up on Friday night & I would love to show them off..;)
 
I tried looking on my own website and there is no outlet. I looked under products, and it isn't there. Please forgive me, but i am a computer spaz and very new to PC. Thanks to all.
 
go to "order products"
choose option #2 (not ordering on a show)
"outlet" should be the last choice in the list under Shop Catalog.

I think it might have been Stephanie Boyd....
 
Thanks so much. I was looking under "products" I'm still learning!!!
How do I post a new question? Thanks for everyones help and ideas, It really helps!
 
Darn it! The pictures of the new stuff isn't displaying for me EXCEPT for the bowls. Wierd. I can see everything else.
 
Same here!
 
Same here! I thought that maybe it was me!!:rolleyes:
 
Thanks for announcing!! It is definately nice to see some different things...and will be helpful once the pictures show up!!
 
Some of my photos have an X too.
 
shouldn't they realize that we are watching it like a hawk and shouldn't tease us like this?? any good web designer knows not to put up changes unless all photos are uploaded first! (hence I am the web coordinator at a college for my FT job...)
 
Or to use a picture format that is not commonly used! ;)
 
I am so excited about the new products!!!
 
chefjeanine - do you know what degree the bowls are oven-safe to?
 
Garnisher??I have pictures of the bowls but not the garnisher, and I have no idea what that is...but I think I want it! Could someone save it and post the picture? Thanks!
 
The Garnisher is basically the Crinkle Cutter, but straight, not curved. It also has a wooden handle instead of Bakelite.

I think the bowls are oven safe to 250, same as the Simple Additions. I've got a set from a couple of years ago and I LOVE them!
 
I LOVE those bowls. We use them ALL THE TIME! I love the colors, the size, the shape! I use them for mixing, serving, baking, etc. Right now they are holding the loot from trick-or-treating last night!!! The price - UNBEATABLE! : )
 
I love those bowls!
 
I think I am going to order them "for my mom" ...does anyone write these sort of orders off on their taxes? Because I want it to count towards my sales as well...
 
You can write it off as a "promotional gift." My DH and I used to be active with another home business opportunity that had a lot of different products and even gift catalogs. We gave those all the time for weddings and things. I think there's a $50 per recipient per event limit, though.
 
hey everyone - they changed the "order products" button to "shop holiday gifts" ....make sure that you change your instructions for your customers to get to the Outlet!

Also...The Tumblers are gone!!
 
does anyone know if the current scalloped bread tube is the same as the one in the 3pk. on the outlet? If so, GREAT deal....one for 6.50 or 3 for 11.50...
 
Are bowls oven safe? What degree?

Jennifer,

I'll see if I can unearth any paperwork regarding these bowls. My gut feeling is that they would only be made for warming.

If anyone else get's to this information first, please post for Jennifer. Thanks!

See my post above. They're the same as Simple Additions - 250F for warming.
 
thanks about the bowls! and about the bread tubes...now that the photos are up, it isn't the scalloped...it is the square that is included (unless the photo is wrong) ...I can't wait to put in an order :-) :-)
