Is Kit Enhancement Worth the Holiday Splurge?

[Sonia_J]

Ok it could be because I am home sick today, But i have seriously started and deleted my kit enhancement order about 6 times.
First I went in and chose everything i ever wanted.
Then I realized, hmmm maybe I should try this again with what I can actually afford. Dang Kit enhancement coming at the same time as Christmas!
But I keep putting things on the list and then taking them off.
I think If i don't just sumbit it today I may go looney.

Have a happy holiday!

I've been debating the same thing - what I want vs what I need vs what I _should_ buy and what I should just WAIT for. Blah.

Anyhow, my conclusion has been that I'm going to get one 'splurge' item. For me it'll be the Simple Additions Essentials Set (I LOVE that platter) because it's a lot of money. Then, I'm going to get like 3 things that I view that I need - things that will improve my shows. The paring knife with sharpener, the cookie cutter set and the Celebrate! cookbook.

Maybe then i'll order some little stuff.. we'll see. But I'm going to start there anyhow!

Good luck with your choices, it's so tempting to order everything!

My kit enhancement month is also December. I have done the same thing - entering and deleting items. BUT -then I remembered - it comes around for all consultants again in April - so I may buy a little now and more later.

I have to keep reminding myself that April isn't too far away.
I think I've narrowed it down to 2 stoneware peices and the prof. small saute pan and a few nylon tools.
And our can open died this morning so I added the PC one too.

This is so funnyI have done the same thing, MANY times. I have done it over the last 3 weeks and have come to the conclusion that April is not to far away and it is also tax time, - who thought of these times for kit enha anyway????


But I think i will end up submitting this weekend with my last show and just settle for some now and some later. Isn't there a $$$ amount,

 

[pchefinski]

$500 max I believe. Good luck figuring out what y'all are gonna get!

what is kit enhancement month exactly?ARe these the new products for spring? Or is it the Fall/winter 2005 sample product list you are referring to? I just started in Nov. and was wondering if my enhancement month would then be in April? on which products you are talking about and when my month is?

 

[ChefKeender]

Kit Enhancement MonthKit Enhancement is available to all Consultants in April, and also to new Consultants in the month following your SS3 month. So, if your SS1 is November, then your Kit Enhancement month would be February. So you get two Kit Enhancement months. And I believe it's for any product in the catalog, except items that were in your SS kit. And I believe there's a restriction that you can only get 1 of any thing (so, you can't order 3 garlic presses). And I believe the discount is 40%.
Mine is next month...soooooo excited!!!

those fabulous PC workers!So I ordered my kit enhancement I think I day i started this post.
I got it TODAY!! I wasn't expecting to be able to use anything I ordered for Christmas - Now I can!! Yeah!!

I bought the small saute pan and put the ice cubes in for my husband (and I) to see how it distributes the cold like in the audio cd - He was AMAZED! =)
I can't wait to bring it to my next show!!!

 

[jujubug]

Ice Cubes?Which audio cd are you referring to and what do you do with ice cubes in the cookware?

 

[Sonia_J]

i have to check what its called - its in the car... but i think it was in the one with info on selling the the collections: Stoneware Smple Additions and Cookware.
You put a few ice cubes in the small saute pan and after a few minutes the whle thing - sides and bottom - are the same cold temperature.
it shows how well it distributes the cool. the same would be said if it were hot but then you have burns and lawsuits. =)

Sonia this is my 4th month too ~ I have sent in TWO separate kit enhancement orders this past week! LOL. Good thing I had a record breaking month and can "justify". How frequently do all consultants get the kit enhancement opportunity? I'm trying to keep from ordering MORE.

What did you end up with? I finally purchased the rectangular stone, lid, carrier... the rack... a mini deep dish... lots of stuff.

I put an ice cube in a SA small bowl at the same time I place in the cookware and put in the middle of everyone so they can see that the one in the pan is melting 3x the rate of the other one. Also have someone touch the pan before the cube goes in and after a minute when the entire pan is ice cold. Then I'll put another cube in the cookware to be passed around. It really is amazing. I think the idea is from the "collections" cd? A worthwhile cd to own as it discusses stones, SA and cookware ~ gives you lots of ways to get the message across that guests are "investing" not splurging on these purchases.

I'm mad at myself for leaving off the insulated tote from my zillion revisions.
But I got the bar pan and loaf pan and square baker. I also got the small saute pan and several of the nylon tools. I got the small batter bowl and a kitchen spritzer and a couple of the pantry rubs. I think I got the All the Best cookbook too...
OH yeah I am IN LOVE with the flour/suage shaker! Ok so it looks HUGE in the catalog and it is just an ity bitty thing but I made kalochkis (dont know hwo spell that cookie name) this weekend and used it with powdered sugar. I need more of them!!!
I've already started my list for April's KE. =)

Sonia, you can add the tote if you want (I sent TWO orders!) ~ you will LOVE All the Best. It is the one cookbook I am having the most fun with ~ the pictures of the braids and rings can't be beat! I love the flour/sugar shaker too ~ I have one for cinn-sugar and just ordered one to keep powdered sugar in! Will you share your cookie recipe???
