I'm I Just Missing It? Christmas Deadline?

[flemings99]

Anyone know the show submission deadline with regular shipping to arrive by Christmas? Usually we get the dates far in advance.

NO I called Ho yesterday and those dates have not been released-
which is crazy!

I also need the thanksgiving cut off! hope they make up their mind soon-

 

[flemings99]

WOW! I know they want us to book close but that is crazy. They have to already know! Frustrating!

Based on previous years...usually sometime around the 15th I believe has been listed.Here were LAST years numbers. It seems they are pretty close to consistent year to year.....might help those who aren't familiar with previous years.

If you look on Consultant's Corner, Click on Products and Recipes, then Holiday 2011, then on Resources. It says order by 3p.m. CDT on Dec. 23 for delivery on Dec. 24.

Yes, but generally those last-minute orders involve extra shipping costs. The dates Bobbi posted will be close for standard shipping.

I use the two-week rule of thumb. HO's standard for processing orders is five business days. The furthest shipping destinations is http://www.fedex.com/grd/maps/MapEntry.do.

Yes- this would be the expedited shipping and probably expensive! But for regular shipping/costs, those dates from last year are what I'd plan for. it may shift slightly given when weekend dates fall.

The past several years the deadline date for standard show shipping has been the 15th.
