:grumpy: Nope! Not showing up there!!! Now I'm REALLY glad that I did the print screen with my name on the winner's list. I'll have to call HO & see what the deal is. Later though ... it's 12:42 AM here in Japan & I need to go to bed. My 2 year old & 9 month old are NOT going to sleep in for me tomorrow!!! LOL
 
Congrats to all the winners....I'm taking a break, and it looks like no PCD with my entries. My Jan is maxed out, so I may not have any more to enter! LOL
 
I still have 23 names on my primary list, so maybe with those ... LOL
 
If you look at the bottom right hand corner of the bookings winners page, there are multiple pages of winners to view.
 
Nice....go sheila! Hoping you rack up on those PCD. I could call more people, but I don't think I'd be sane with more shows. Looks like I have 7 cooking and 6 catalog, and there are still a couple more who are calling me back with dates! Yikes!

If there's a month to overbook, it's January. Once they get over Christmas and Jan. 1 hits, they start backing out, postponing, thinking no one has money, bad weather hits (ok, not much of an issue for you!!), flu, etc.

And if they're calling YOU instead of you calling them, how can you turn them down :) Or push them into Feb. My fingers are crossed that Feb. will be double trip points. Already have 3 scheduled for then but am still trying to book a full Jan. b/c that will lead to an even fuller Feb.

I like to play my odds. Am entering my Jan. bookings sporadically for the contest. Did 2 already and no PC bucks. Will be making calls tonight!

That makes total sense, Becca! Thanks....this will be my 1st Jan, and I appreciate the insight. I'll call again tomorrow....but oh my brain and body if they're all go's! LOL
