I just hit $15,000...and 71 cents. :) I'd like to do something nice for myself now that I've hit it. Did anyone reward themselves with something after hitting career sales? I was thinking new labels or business cards, but then I thought I might like to have a SS skillet.

What did you guys do, if anything, when you hit $15,000?
 
Congrats to you! Can't wait till I get there. You should ABSOLUTELY reward yourself, it's a fantastic accomplishment!
 
Congratulations!

I didn't do anything special - just enjoyed that 2% raise :)
 
Just wait til you get your charm and congrats letter! I didn't do anything but get excited knowing its a raise!
 
I didn't do anything special either...but I love your idea of treating yourself to a skillet. :) Go for it!
 
I didn't do anything either....wish I would've thought to reward myself! Great idea and enjoy the raise!
 
I will probably hit mine by April... I think a new skillet is a good treat... I might do the same!
 
If I do my $3,000 average I want to do, I should hit mine by April too. I'll have to think what I can do to "treat me"! LOL! I think the SS skillet you want would be great!
 
Congrats!!! I patted myself on the back, allowed my clustermates to do the same, and enjoyed the raise!

Celebrate any way you like - you deserve it!
 
I just hit mine with tonights show. Yippe!!!
But we're broke so I'm just going with the 2% raise. LOL
 
Congrats!!!
 
Congratulations. I just hit mine in Dec. so the raise started in January. I can't wait to get my silver chef's hat and necklace (which apparently has replaced the whisk charm). I hadn't thought of rewarding myself either, and now, thanks to you, it isn't too late! I'll just tell hubby that is what everyone does! Hmmm, what do I desire?
 
Congratulations!! I hit mine in December also, I am just excited to get the raise and the charm. I thought I would get the whisk, but my director says it will probably be the hat, either way I'm just excited!!!
