I was at the Health Food Store this afternoon, and they had Himalayan Salt there - for a small bottle (I would say half the size of ours) it was $7.95! Ours is a great deal!

Thanks for the info Becky!
 
I didn't earn anything for free. I have no one to blame but myself, but boy, if it were physically possible for me to kick my own behind, I would!

HaPpY bIrThDaY!!!!:balloon:

Thank you!!

I did get my grinder and salt yesterday on my birthday, so it was very cool and an extra little birthday surprise!!!
 
I just arrived home and as I was walking to the front door the FedEx guy backed into my driveway. So my box was hand delivered. How fun! I really wish the bamboo bowl would have arrived, too. My SIL was with me, and she is very interested in that bowl.

Must be yours shipped earlier because of your birthday!

Mine hasn't shipped yet!:cry:
 
I just got my grinder and salt today. Bigger than I expected
 
To my surprise when DH left to go to the airport last night he handed me a package, it was a box from PC and I was all excited!! I didn't order anything, so I wondered what this was and sure enough it was the grinder and salt!! I knew I had a descent June for me, but had been focused so much on the sales (I wanted $1500 came up short at $1087) that I completely forgot about the hold and submit 2 shows promo!! Sometimes I think I like it better when I forget :)
 
I got mine today too! YEAH!

Can't wait to get the Bamboo Bowl and Sample Pkg A! I need a bigger kitchen. Forget that, I need a bigger house!
 
Since I didn't attend conference to see the Grinder - is there just one or one for salt and one for pepper. I noticed they can be bought as a set, so that is why am wondering if they are different, or two of the same :confused:
 
I got mine today. It was a great pick me up. Love it and it doesn't come a minute too soon.

ChefAnn.. I'm in Ypsilanti, your's should be on the way, it not on your doorstep today!
 
Mine is here today - YEAH! I love new stuff!Am I the only one who opened the salt before the grinder and already ate a bunch plain to try it?

They are exactly the same.

Good stuff! I'll definitely be using it!

It is great with our basil blend canola oil to dip bread in!

They are exactly the same.

...and can be used for:

1. Salt
2. Peppercorn
3. Cloves
4. Coriander

...and others...

You can adjust the grinder for how thick or fine you want it...

Just do not put pre-ground seasonings in it.
 
By the way, use the PC flexible funnels to fill your grinder without spilling...
 
I came home today to find two PC boxes on my front porch. :) They weren't scheduled to arrive to tomorrow. I was going to have DH meet me after work tomorrow so I could pick up the products for a booth I have tomorrow night. Now I don't have to.

I really do like the grinder. I want another and the peppercorn medley. I am a little bummed about the bowl. But I am sure it will be worth the wait. :thumbup:

I really liked the recipes in the Season's Best, too. I can't wait to try some of them out.
 
Waaaaa! I'm so jealous of all of you - I don't think mine will be here until tomorrow - I want them NOW! ;)
 
Oh, I want my other box now!
 
I got mine today. They are so nice!
 
Yeah, sure, rub it in, Mary. ;)
 
I got mine today also. My friend took my cake pan to make an ice thingy for some punch for a baby shower tomorrow.
 
Stacy, the grinder and sea salt are the free products for holding and submitting 2 shows in June. You can go out under the Sample Package in CC and order some of the new fall products at a discounted price.

She can't Rae, she got salt not a rub!

Oh, Janet, I think KG has been a really bad influence on you. :p
 
If you don't have a funnel, invert the bottle directly over the "spike" in the middle. The sizes are a near perfect match.

Now I just wish they had the other grinder available in an inexpensive sample pack, without having to buy another bamboo bowl and more salt!
