Since the mess with HO is we cannot get on to "send" an show or order, I wondered, can I just submit my individual order (with stoneware 20% off) tomorrow 12/1 and date it for today 11/30 which is the real scenerio anyway?

I am exhausted and it doesn't make a big difference for SAT for me.

I guess the question is, can I submit tomorrow and my customer still qualify for the stoneware at 20% off. She is ordering about 4 pieces of stoneware.

TIA

I think so too--but unsure....need a good positive reinforcement answer otherwise I will get toothpicks to hold my eyes opened ;)
 
Yes. You have until the 15th to submit November orders. It won't count toward the SAT, but you said that wasn't an issue. Go ahead and get a good night's sleep. :)
 
yes, I've done it before.

Ahh thanks!!
 
Hmmm... I thought you could only get the guest special from a show, not individual orders.

This particular guest special is available to all - even individual and online orders.
 
Good to know. Too many details to keep track of in this business, sometimes.
 
Yeah, I only knew that because a customer placed an individual order through my website on Friday.
 
According to the e-mail from HO, because they were having so many problems on the 30th ... all orders placed on Dec 1st will count toward November sales & SAT. Anything that you want to count towards December, you need to wait & submit on the 2nd. So I would think you would be fine submitting a November individual order on Dec 1st. ;)
 
Sheila... Just noticed you signature, How cute! "Opperation Knocked up" Love it!

Oh and March 5th is an awesome day! My DS will be 4 that day and it is the birthday of 2 of my dearest friends.

Congrats!
 
Thanks Paulette!

My Grandmother's birthday is on the 6th. I think she would be happy if I waited one more day!
