If someone wants to possibly order 2-3 DOZEN of them to take to an orphanage
in New Hope Uganda to feed the crews ... would I have to ask permission to order that many of one item? And please pray this happens because it would be a direct Gift from GOD ABOVE because my month has fallen apart big time!
 
sending good thoughts!
 
I believe you only need to contact HO if they are ordering more than 50 of one item.
 
The policy guide says that if someone wants to order large quantities of something you need to contact HO. They'll possibly get a discount too. The guide mentions 50 of one item.

A discount would be super since it's a mission trip! :)
 
I think you are good on a quantity of 49 or less. ;)

Thanks everyone! Now I just need to pray and pray that this order happens!
 
(((fingers crossed)))!!!
 
I ordered 75 Season's Best on a show in December. My show was put on hold and they contacted me to find out why one person ordered so many. It was a gal who is a nail tech and she bought them as gifts for her customers. When I told HO that's what it was, they said ok and released the show. So you shouldn't have a problem.

Oh... so sorry! The Manual Food Processor! They have no power where they are going and someone put her on the job of finding manual food processors to take. She's been looking online but felt that all of them she looked at were cheaply made so she contacted me! :)
 
WooHoo! That would be great!!!

Yes, it would be an answer to fervant prayers since I already had two shows reschedule from May and I only had 3 cooking shows on my calendar yet! I am leading a bookings blitz on the 9th with our greater team but I need to do my own personal one today and tonight! :)
