I earned the one from the December incentive and am trying to decide if I want to get a 2nd one 50% off. It's almost too good to pass up at 50% off but I'm not sure how much I would use it at home. I always keep a kit packed in my car and will use it this season for recipes. Sometimes after a season or two some of the duplicate items just gather dust in my cupboard. Just thought I'd see what everyone else was doing.
 
i'm using both of mine! Love it :love:
when i have a show I put it in my kit otherwise they stay in dw or on counter
 
I would say that it definitely depends on if you can afford it. I like this product and have used it a couple of times trying it out, but I personally don't see my family using it all the time. Something I do want 2 of is the Veggie Wedger. I love that thing.
 
I'm not getting a second one at 50% off. I'm waiting until next week and getting it for 60% off with the catalog show I'm putting together. If there's something else you also want (like another set of the small glasses :love: ) you could hold off and get the MFP for 60% off in April. If I have a catalog show put together in April I may get one for one of my kids (adults) but not sure yet.

I'd rather get it that way than pay the shipping for the sample order. ..now if you want a bunch of other things too it may be more worth it to you.
 
If you have a second one, then you can loan it to new recruits to use at their shows until they get their own. Help then sell more.
 
I did get a second one as I plan to offer a show of salsas and chips...using the mango, the regular tomato, and the pineapple salsa from the napolean recipe. I just figured it would aid my sanity and they do not take up alot of space.:chef:
 
First thing I ordered when my changeover kit came. I will keep one in my kit and one at home. I love it.
 
I'm seriously considering getting another. I want one to have in my kit, and one for use.

I like the idea of having one to loan out. Money isn't a problem I earned some PC$. Just trying to figure out if I really need another one.
 
I ordered a 2nd one. I like the idea of having 2 in case I want to show one type of food in one and a totally different type of food in the 2nd.
 
I also think another is good just in case of breakage!:eek: I would be devastated if I had planned a show around it and had a malfunction. I think this is going to be a very vital part of my Spring/Summer shows.
 
ShootFire! I want two of everything! One for kit, one for home....Oh Wait A Minute...THREE of everything...need a complete set of goods for the camper!I ♥ Pampered Chef!
 
Well, I have duplicates of a lot of things, but for the most part I use everything I demo in my own kitchen. I want people to see that they will hold up...and work just as well when they have a scratch or blemish. However, even if you wouldn't use 2 MFPs I would get it anyway...makes a great gift and it will be at a great price...although 60% off is better if you have a show next month.
 
I just want my first set of products!!! I can't wait until I'm back stateside & can get shipments in a reasonable amount of time. :cry:
