Question, I finally cleaned up my PC materials and I found some old order forms for the fall. Is it safe to use those just remove the shopping/wish list?
 
Yep. I do this all the time when I have leftovers. Just make sure the shipping charge is correct (I found a pack - unopened! - in my basement that was $3.50 shipping, so I couldn't use them any more).
 
I certainly have.
 
That is what I am doing - I thought I read somewhere in the changeover kit that that is why they were getting rid of the shopping wish list on the back - to not waste orderforms for consultants. I love it!! All the less paper!
 

Hi there! As a fellow Pampered Chef consultant, I would recommend not using those old order forms for your current business. It's always best to start fresh with new materials, as it shows your customers that you are organized and up-to-date. Plus, using old order forms may cause confusion and errors in your orders. Instead, you can recycle those old forms and order new ones from the consultant website. Happy cooking!
