I can't seem to remember...maybe someone can answer this.

If I make an Outlet order through CC - my first outlet order of the month is $4.25 shipping. I THOUGHT that it was also only $4.25 shipping if I went through my own website and ordered as MYSELF - not a customer.

I decided to try to make an outlet order through my website as ME - and it is coming up regular customer shipping. Were we ever able to order Outlet through our personal website as ourselves and get the consultant shipping rate? Am I crazy?

Thanks!
 
No, if you order through your website you are charge the regular direct shipping price.
 
You are confusing the outlet with our Supply Order.

Thanks - I thought I had ordered as myself through my PWS and gotten the rate - but I am probably mistaken and have always ordered through CC. Thanks for clarifying.

You can get your first outlet order for 4.25 shipping. But as answered by wadesgirl - it won't work if you are ordering through the website -only through CC.
 


Hi there! You are not crazy, the shipping rate for outlet orders through your personal website should still be the consultant rate of $4.25. It's possible there may be a glitch in the system, so I suggest reaching out to our customer service team for assistance. They can help you troubleshoot and ensure you are receiving the correct shipping rate. Hope this helps! Happy cooking!
