Is It Time to Refresh Your Pampered Chef Wardrobe?

[pamperedlinda]

Can we get a discontinued list, or is that a No-No also?

They did not give us one yet. For now we'd have to go thru the catalog and compare items.

Okay. If anyone comes up with one, I'd be very grateful if I could have it! [email protected]. Even if you find one item, I'd like to hear what it is..
thanks so much!

Things you could already guess are going away: taupe stones, holiday items, cookbook for a cause. Some gift sets are dropped. There's one other thing I think we could share but otherwise the rest I think should be left unsaid until after your launch.

Ill be in Toledo with 5 of my consultants on my team, crammed into one room lol

My plan is to see a dear friend who lives 10 minutes from the place ... I haven't seen her since her wedding ... I was there when she met her husband and now they have 5 kids under the age of 5.

But I am struggling with a cold and cannot get her and her kiddos sick! So if I am still coughing, I will probably just hit the road at 5 a.m.! I will be seriously bummed if this is the case! She is the reason I wanted to go to Toledo!

Portland is where I'll be next Saturday, and I can definately say can hardly wait after sitting and reading all the posts in this forum.

Yep, they told us to post the canned message "I'm at launch right now, like this is you like new problems", etc.
I'm mostly being good about not spilling the beans, but my mom who watched the kids for me yesterday got to hear the news cause I just had to share with someone and she said I owed her

KG - Send a set - I will insert them myself!!! Ugh! You guys are gonna drive us nuts! Although - someone else said - you can't share with us and that too has to be a killer!!! I already put my family on notice. I have a confirmation for my niece on the 5th at 9:30 a.m.! I know I can make through the service as I do not want to embarrass myself nor my niece. But I may have to bring catalogs in as I used to belong to that church and know a lot of members I HAVE NEVER TALKED TO ABOUT MY BUSINESS!!!! Coffee hour is looking good! (Yes opportunistic on a special day so maybe I should hold off??!!) Need a subtle piece of logo wear I guess as I know they do not do formal there. Gotta think on that. Plus, I better ask my mom, yes, I May be 50 but I still have to answer to her!

A PC pin on your shirt? I have several up the front strap of my sling bag & get comments on them fairly often to help open up the conversation!

Do you have a nice logo polo or jacket? Or how about a binder or portfolio that you can carry with the logo on it? Subtle but not silent! Be sure to have business cards and while casually conversing work PC in the conversation. If there's a place that would be appropriate leave a bunch of your cards out for people to grab.

I do have some polo shirts but they are so old and look it. I have not purchased any new ones since Merrills quality went down. In fact, these old shirts - about 9 years old, out lasted every one I have purchased since. I am thinking maybe I need to grab a new logo from CC and go get some of those iron transfers like one lady did. Then maybe grab a shirt of mine that is in good condition. With money being scarce, new is out of the question. I do not have any pins that I am aware of. I used all of the ones I have ever gotten and eventually lost them! (That clippy thing would fall off and then the pin would drop off!) Even my Chef Success pin broke! I used it so much that the pointy part broke off from bending it so much! And yep, mom did pipe in but said coffee hour would be fine. She said that if I could get around to it, advertise. But do not be a pusher! She too said she would help if she could. COOL! I'll come up with something. Business cards I can do I have plenty. I just have to remember to put them in my wallet as I simply can not remember to put them in and carry them. Thanks for the ideas!
