There are only 5 new items since last time it was updated... no price changes that I can tell, and only about 3 things removed.
 
Thanks for the update!
 
Where is the outlet? It used to be at the bottom of the product list but now it's not there. I can't find it. Even typing Outlet into the search does nothing. Thanks.
 
It's still there. If you can't see it, your browser probably remembers you as having gone in through a show. Clear the cookies and try again.
 
I guess they are running out of the "good" old stuff....it's still boring :(
 
Yeah, still boring. The set with the kitchen brush and twixits is helpful, but at only $5, I'm not paying shipping on that.
 
Thanks Joy, I only saw them cause of your OUTLET NL! You rock! :)
 
Which three things were removed?
 
Does anyone know what the difference is with the micro-cooker on the outlet compared to the one in the catalog? I've seen that older one before - it's a maroonish color. Besides a different color - what's different? Does it work any differently than our current large one?
 
Pretty sure it's just the color change.
 
It's actually brown not maroon.It works the same and is the same size, just a color change. I have both and haven't noticed a difference over the years.
 
Ok, thanks, that's good to know.

A couple friend/co-workers called me today and said "Is this true what we're seeing? The micro cooker AND a cookbook for $5???"
I think this friend checks the outlet for updates more often than I do :)
 
Does anyone know if the "Tool Turn-About" is for sure white in the "Handy Helper Collection" on the outlet? I am wanting a white one for bridal shows.

Yes, it is definitely the white one.
 
Thanks so much!!!! :D
 
Let me ask one more question....I am torn at which would be the best way to do this. :confused:

How is the best way to order from the outlet??? From your website, pay the full price and get commission from it (I was going to order under hubby...not sure if it would let me as a consultant???) or from Consultant's Corner" to get the discount?

It's up to you, but I choose to pay full price for it because then it goes towards the incentive trip.
 
Did you see the new stuff out there now????? I just checked tonight and I am pleasantly surprised by all that's been added!! :)
 
ooh.... gotta go check it out!
 
Celebrate Plate! Casual Cooking! Fun!
 
Note- wrong pic for #2151 Rectangle Tray.
 
Yes...I just noticed it. Going to have to send out an email to my customers. :)
I'm thinking I may have to get a Tiles Rectangle platter and use that for Pampering a business or something. Or the Celebrate plate...but thinking the platter would give more serving room.
 
Insulated tote! Woo-hoo!
 
Why would the cheese grater already be on the outlet?

The picture showing for the Rectangle Tray (the long thin one that goes w/the SA) is actually the Rectangular Server (the rounded one that goes w/the stoneware).I just wrote up an email blast and substituted in a picture that I had saved in my old files.

Oh, for those who want statistics... 12 new items added, nothing removed. No price changes that I could see.

I was wondering about that because the Rectangular Server is still an item in our catalog! That'll confuse people for sure! Did anyone e-mail HO about the incorrect picture showing?
