Shelly Flanagan said:I for one would love to know what is being retired. I am going to SL next week in Baltimore but would love info ahead of time for a show I am doing. It may boost sales.
If nothing else, you can message me.
Thanks a bunch
thepartylady said:Honestly, since I have been to SL.....I think this list is fine to post. Maybe........MAYBE one item is a hint of something new that is coming out. A lot of it is just seasonal.
Malinda Klein said:Thanks Jane, this saved me tons of time!
That is something that PC does quite often. Since I started 8 years ago, we've had seasonal colors for all of those items. I would have been more surprised if those colors hadn't been discontinued.Maragib said:I think it is funny that it seems that they are already getting rid of the new colors. I thought they were ugly to begin with. Mara
esavvymom said:On a side note- A LOT of price increases again. Seems like they just did a big round of them last year.

Leanna said:Ok glad I wasn't the only one who missed this then. I was also in Columbus and didn't get a list!

Our customers could get 15 pieces (the 7 piece, 5 piece, 8" saute pan and 12" skillet or stock pot) for full price at $1059 (before price increase) or for half price as little as $529.5 plus all their other free and discounted products with that kind of show. Macy's and BB&B have sales, but not that kind of sale.

Nep2nfly said:Thank you!!!! This information is very helpful! We don't have either of these stores near us - but the names are known as quality businesses. This is just the infor I was needing - you are an angel!
KayPT said:Thank you for posting these. I know I have one customer who will be upset about losing the basil blend canola oil. She orders these 3 or 4 at a time. I just let her know though. Is there any tips to see the price increase sheet? I only see it really small, but it is probably just the way I am getting into it. Thanks again! I really appreciate this.

Nep2nfly said:I agree - I was a bit shocked at how many things were increased so dramatically. The cookware is already borderline overpriced as is (yes I know it is amazing quality - please don't post mean things about me saying this), and I noticed a few other items that I had once felt were perfectly priced now reaching into the questionable range. I'm sure I will hear about this from my customers. It would be nice to have a catalog season without such dramatic changes.
Having said that - I'm sure HO has done their research and didn't just randomly assign increases. Now it's up to me to trust them and believe in the superior quality of our products which is the reason for the sometimes higher than average prices.
At Pampered Chef, we understand the importance of budgeting and planning for purchases. We strive to provide our customers with the most up-to-date information on prices, including any changes or increases. However, we ask that you please wait for the official announcement before sharing this information with others.
We continuously assess and adjust our prices to ensure the highest quality products and services for our customers. While there may be some changes in prices, we can assure you that we always strive to offer fair and competitive prices for our high-quality products.
At Pampered Chef, we are constantly innovating and updating our product line to provide our customers with the best and latest kitchen tools and gadgets. This means that some products may retire to make room for new and improved options. However, we always strive to keep our best-selling and customer-favorite products available.
If you have your eye on a product that is retiring, we recommend purchasing it as soon as possible to ensure you don't miss out. Once a product is retired, it will no longer be available for purchase through Pampered Chef. However, you may be able to find the product through a consultant who may have remaining inventory.
We will always announce retiring products through official channels, such as our website, social media, and email newsletters. You can also check with your Pampered Chef consultant for the most up-to-date information on retiring products. We appreciate your patience and understanding as we work to provide you with the best products and services.
