I want to order something from the outlet and something from the samples. I know I can only order from one at a time. Is there a limit to how often you can do it? Say I want to go ahead and order from the outlet now and in a couple of days I want to order my samples. Will I still only be charged $4 in shipping?
 
The supply order is $4 shipping for the first order of the month and then it goes by the amount of sales for the shipping (see back of order form for direct shipping). I believe the sample order works the same.

Okay. That is what I needed to know. Then I will wait until next month to place my outlet order. I am hoping the table cloth will still be there. I need the triffle bowl more and I don't want to pay a lot in shipping.
 
You could call the solutions center and get that verified just to be sure.

Outlet

What is the Outlet?

The Pampered Chef has created an Outlet to make products that were discontinued from our line available to Consultants and customers at reduced rates of 20% — 60% off the original price.
These products are the same products that were previously sold in our catalog.
Outlet items may only be purchased online through the Samples area (Consultants) or through online Individual Ordering (customers); they are not available through PamperedPartner®, Wedding Registry, or as a write-in.
Ordering Outlet Items
Active Consultants may purchase outlet items at a 15% discount off the price available to customers through the Samples order form located behind Consultant's Corner. Your Pampered Chef® Debit Card is the only form of payment accepted for these orders.
A maximum quantity of 10 of any item may be ordered from the Outlet.
All Outlet orders must include the $4.00 shipping and handling fee, plus the appropriate sales tax. Sales tax rates can be found under Consultant's Corner on the Web or by calling (630) 261-8528. The $4.00 fee cannot be combined with any other order.
How long will products be available?
Inventory for Outlet items is limited and they will be available on a first come, first serve basis.
Items will be added to the Outlet at The Pampered Chef's discretion.
Items will be removed from the Outlet at The Pampered Chef's discretion or when inventory has been depleted. At that point, they will no longer be visible for purchase.
We will not notify you of when products are changing or inventory has been depleted.
Final Sale
Items purchased from the Outlet are Final Sale. They carry no expressed or implied guarantees or warranties.
A product that arrives damaged in shipment from our distribution center to the purchaser's shipping address will be replaced or have the purchase price refunded, at our discretion.
