E-mailed HO about it, haven't heard back yet. Will let you know when I do. Didn't see a "show number" in the adjustments page to do it there.
 
Yippeeeeeeeee! I FINALLY got my tote today. I had been telling myself that it was sure to come before the 4th of July :)

It is open on the bottom but looking at it, as long as the seam is finished- it is supposed to be that way. The tote is washable and I don't think any of us want cardboard in our machines. This way we can turn the tote wrong side out and remove the cardboard before washing.

PC did AWESOME on this tote! I think it is one of the best things I have earned just in design and usability. I can't wait to bring it out and about!
 
FINALLY!!! LOVE IT!!! SOOOOO Cute!
 
I still haven't gotten mine!!!! :yuck:
 
I finally got mine today. It is so cute. DH got home from work for lunch and I asked him if he wanted to see and my DS (7) said he doesnt care about your bag. He was tired of hearing about it himself.

That's exactly why The Furry Guy loves that I'm part of CS. I get to come here and get all crazy and chatty about PC stuff instead of bugging him. I did make him admit, though, that the new HWC tote is adorable. :D
 
DS has told me twice today what a pretty new purse I have. DH said he liked it too - he was glad I finally had pockets to organize! (he hated rooting through my catalog tote looking for the checkbook, car keys, etc....)

I think for DH, it's nice because I didn't have to spend money for it!:D:p
 
The Furry Guy never roots through my purse for anything. He's convinced I carry small, vicious rodents that are trained to attack him if he ventures in there.

Mine DH won't venture into mine either. He'll bring it to me to find what it is that he needs....or just ask for what he needs. Too funny.

I earned that bag right about 5/13 and wasn't too disappointed when I didn't get it right away 'cause I didn't think I would like it. Boy was I wrong! I love it and am really excited to carry it instead of my catalog tote. It's an eye catcher for sure!
 
Is anyone else REALLY hoping the new conference (only) catalog tote will be designed like this one? I love my pockets! Even DH said it was nice except for the fact it looked more winter.
 
That's my hope. They are really good at listening to our suggestions and wishes. I'm sure enough of us have talked about the need for inside pockets that there's good chance this one might have them. :)
 
Response from HO regarding the opening in the bottom of my bag:

Dear Barbara,

Thank you for contacting The Pampered Chef. This is intentional for washing purposes.

Please let us know if we can be of further assistance.

Thank you,

Hm, I guess that means mine's defective.
 
I love this bag!!!! I'm going to stitch the handles down with black so that they don't flap outward and I'm also going to sew on a pink gross grain ribbon in a loop and put on a buttom to hook it shut. Then, in the small opening left underneath the handles, I can thread the white ribbon with PC on it from a gift at leadership and still have my ribbon on my bag. I love it! The pockets inside are the BEST! Yahoo!
 
Anyone have a HWC tote bag from May you are willing to part with? It's black with pink polka dot trim on it. Thanks.

I didn't get mine until this week (moved and though PC has new address, they mailed to the old). Anyway, I love it! It is so much better than the catalog tote. I love the interior pockets. It was like it was made for the mini catalogs, and wedding brochures. We'll see how this one does for business. Sorry, not willing to give this one up.
 
I have one that I would be willing to sell. Although it is not still in the packaging. It hasn't been used. Please email me at [email protected] and we can discuss prices and you can give me your address and such if interested.
