If she ordered the product from you in September but you were just waiting on payment you could put in the order date as September and get the guest special for her, I think...
But from what I've found, if it's a "spend $60 and get xyz" special, then no, individual orders do not get the special. But if it's a "20% off select items" special then yes individual orders get the special.
How "almost $150" is she? If she's super close maybe she'd be interested in spending a bit more in order to get both the free bar board and the past host discount going forward!

Frequently Asked Questions
What does "Individual Orders Get No Guest Special" mean?
This phrase indicates that when customers place individual orders outside of a party or event, they are not eligible for any special promotions or discounts that are typically offered to guests during a hosted party. Guest specials are exclusive offers available only during a party setting.
Can I still purchase items if I miss the guest special?
Yes, you can still purchase items even if you miss the guest special. However, you will not receive the promotional discount or special offer that was available during the party. It's always a good idea to check with your consultant for any upcoming events where you can take advantage of guest specials.
Are there any exceptions to the "Individual Orders Get No Guest Special" rule?
Generally, the rule applies to individual orders placed outside of a party context. However, there may be occasional promotions or events where individual orders could qualify for special offers. It's best to stay in touch with your Pampered Chef consultant for the latest updates and promotions.
How can I ensure I get the guest special?
The best way to ensure you receive the guest special is to place your order during a Pampered Chef party. Attend a party hosted by a consultant, either in-person or online, and make your purchase during that event to take advantage of the exclusive offers available to guests.
What if I want to host a party to take advantage of guest specials?
If you want to take advantage of guest specials, hosting a party is a great option. By hosting, you not only qualify for the guest specials but also have the opportunity to earn additional rewards and discounts based on the sales generated during your party. Contact your Pampered Chef consultant to get started on planning your event!
