Awesome! I just ordered some! Thanks :D
 
Thanks!! I just ordered a couple and signed up for that Prime Membership thing and got free shipping! Now I just have to remember to cancel it before my 30 day trial period is over!!
 
Wow! I just emailed our cluster to see if anyone else wanted some of these...if you order at least 14 of them ($25), you get free shipping!!

Thanks for the heads up!

Thank you soooo much! these are great! I also bought 14! I figured my goal is 10-12 shows during that month and I would have an extra one for my daughter and I know a lady at church who is a Breast Cancer Survivor, and I will give her one!
Thank you for this great idea!!!:) ;)
 
Very cute! My hubby already picked some pink products from his store for me to give away!:(

Hi Jennifer,

If you go into your "My Account" area and then scroll down to where it says Manage Prime Membership on the bottom right, click on that and on the top left side there will be an option to turn off auto renewal/upgrade so you won't get charged :)


Glad you are all enjoying them :) :)
 
Thank You!! I just ordered 14 now to get my fanny in gear and book more shows :)
 
Thank you for the link. I just ordered 17!!!!!! High hopes for May shows:D

I think I'll give them to all my may hosts. Letting them know I only have xxx # of dates left.:) Wish me luck:)
 
Hey Guys,

Oriental Trading Co has some neat pink ribbon items to give hostesses or HWC team members. I am getting the 07-08 pocket planners. Go to
www.orientaltrading.com:o

Now I need to figure out if I want to buy more than the 2 I already purchased... I am pretty sure that I have 2 bookings for May, and have a couple of other goodies, so I don't want to go overboard! hmmmm....
 
Thanks!!! I just ordered 20 of them!!!!

oh order more ! use them as a booking incentive for May also.
Then if you have too many left over you can always use them for door prizes at your May shows

I got two may bookings at my party last week b/c I took the bears to a show with me. I stuck them in my small bowls and caddy and put them on the end of my table and picked it up and showed it off talking about May and the hostess specials and told them they could get a bear as well :)

Ooh -- for the Amazon prime membership cancellation -- you can put that cancel thing on now and it will still let you use it until the end of the time you have it for -- it just will not renew at the end of that time. :)

Awesome idea!

And thanks for the Amazon tip...I will go in right now :)
 
I received mine today! My cluster and I ordered 35 of them, so we could go together and get free shipping.

They are sooooooooo cute and soft! My two year old was hugging one and wouldn't give it back!
 
Did you order these flip flops things from Oriental? I'm just curious how much the shipping was?
 
I bought 14!
 
I must be missing something because they come up $3.99 each for the beanie babies Do you know something I dont???

Karyn~

They must have seen how quickly they were selling and RAISED THE PRICE!!! I just went to the website, and they came up $3.99 for me too!

CS ladies were all going crazy and buying them up we raised the demand for them! LOL

Sure am glad we ordered ours when we did! Sorry it's not coming up the discounted price for you!:eek: :eek: :eek:
