I revised my flyer to reflect the shipping and handling charges effective 3/1/07. It is based on the back of the outside order form from HO for the March & April Outside Order Forms now on CC. I hope you can use this.

I put one of these in my host packets.

You're welcome! I was very happy to see that on the most part it won't effect my sales. I only get direct ship sales over $130 once in a great while when someone buys cookware out of state. Our customers will be pleased to know that our show orders won't go up for now anyway.

Please feel free to share it with your cluster/team members. It spells it out for all US consultants.

Correction to my S & H flyer eff 3/1/07I found out from Kim that I made a mistake on my flyer so I am reattaching it with the correct information. It should read on non contiguous states add $5.00 to the direct shipping base rate instead of what I put as 15%. Sorry for the mess.

I thought Idaho doesn't charge sales tax on S&H also? At least that is the way it was a couple years ago, the last time I did a show there? Anyone from ID that can confirm?:confused:
 
Sorry Harriet! I should have said thank you!!! So thank you!!!!!! You are great!:)

No problem. ID does not charge sales tax on S & H. My form states all states except: ID is listed as a state that is an excepted.

That's OK. I had to go back and check my sheet to make sure I didn't leave it off. I updated it from the current one I had so I knew I didn't have to change that part. It's easy to miss things now and then. I don't think you're stupid--you're human!
 
Okay, not stupid, just blind!!! LMBO!:D :D :rolleyes: :D
