Spoiler Thread- Don't Open if You Don't Wanna Know!

[mom2leelee]

Thanks ladies! I'm really hoping to get the steak knives on some promo. I received the santoku and chefs forged cutlery when I first signed up as a promo. Then I bought the utility knife as a 1/2 price host item because one of my hosts didn't want it. I would love to add those steak knives to my collection!

 

[jrstephens]

Unless we can get them for cheap (maybe kit enhancement month??) I will be waiting for an incentive on them hopefully.... which is what I did with the rest of the forged set!

Maybe they will be in Open Stock for us to purchase at half-off like last change over.

I MUST ask for money from everyone for my Bday!

 

[jrstephens]

Well it isn't all that expensive, plus you may be able to buy it ahead for a big discount!!

I hope so! b/c it looks great! Of I hope it is in Open Stock for half price!

 

[mbh06]

so the change over products are 50%, right?? How exciting.... I will want everything I didn't earn from level 1 and the 2 show bonus!!!

 

[jenniferknapp]

I started right after the new stuff came out in the fall so I am not familiar wit hthe change over product thing...do they include all of the new products? at 50% off?? are those the kits (some items are open stock) that you can purchase through CC under samples and supplies?? and then kit enhancement month is april, correct? and how does that work??

 

[jrstephens]

the change over is in Samples for half off. They lump some of them together in different packages. And some products are individual in Open Stock. YOu can purchase one of each product but cannot duplicate. For Example: if it is in a package you cannot buy it if it is in Open Stock too if you buy the package.

Kit Enhancement is $500 worth of product at 40% off. I know you cannot get anything in your SS Kit and cannot order more than one of something. I am not sure about any other restrictions. I did not use kit enhcancement b/c I either hosted my own show or added it to host orders to be able to still get commission b/c when I figured it it even out like that. Yes it is April. Unless you SS is in April and then it is your 4th month.

Hope that helps.

Wow...I can't believe what I all missed in 4 hours!! The steak knives are still cheaper than tupperware. We have thiers (hate to say it but i LOVE them they are 8 for $400 we got them half off PLUS had to pay $20 s/h on it!!!)

Now I can't wait to see pictures!!

I too had shows since I started to get products for myself through another's name...but now that it is tax time, I am realizing that I can't really use it to write off... but then again, I only made about 1000 in commission (and basically put it all back in to purchasing PC products) since I started, and I can still write off all of my business supplies and mileage....so maybe I should continue to do it in shows to get commission, knowing that I won't be able to write it off?

Fed Ex Shipping Rates?Has it been announced whether the shipping will be a percentage of the total orders OR will it continue to be a flat rate? Has anyone received a sample of the order form at leadership to see this? Just wondering!

 

[PampMomof3]

I wonder if the pink measure all cup is the same one a few years ago..

YES IT IS!!!

 

[Debrachef]

They haven't talked about this yet. I'm on the phone with my recruiter now.

I am thinking to write on SA pieces with a dry erase marker???

 

[MicheleC]

Awesome info! I just got home from a meeting and new I would find some great stuff here. Thanks for passing all of this stuff on!

I have to admit I'm not very familiar with the trifle bowl and not sure about basing a whole show around it. I guess I was hoping for something with a little more universal. You know, an item you would use everyday in your kitchen. To me this is more of an entertaining kind of piece. I guess I'll have to wait and see what the recipes are before I can get too excited about it.

It looks like some great new products and some wonderful recruiting specials. Wondering what is in it for the new recruits. I want to start making my calls now! Level 2 trip, what a prize!!!

think of a white simple addition plate and take your plate stencil and take spray frosting and decorate your plate. 3 small ones (for cupcakes & plates) , 1 big Happy Birthday, 4 rectangular ones,

 

[pcROX]

Oh!! That is cute! I might actually like that!! I guess that ties in with the kid themes too.

 

[pcROX]

I am a little surprised that the recruiting date doesn't start on 1/01/07 instead of 1/22!! I have a consultant that just recruited someone and I pushed this new recruit to go ahead and get started now instead of waiting!! I sure hope the new signing bonus for recruits will back date to 1/01! I feel bad for my consultant because I also told her that she would probably get some great rewards from the leadership announcements by her recruiting! Yikes!

Something was said about using dry erase markers on the SA plates.... while this works great, the writing rubs off very easily, with just the slightest brush up against it. Do you know works BETTER? Crayola Washable Markers!!!! Once it dries, it holds really well, until it gets wet. Try it, you'll never use dry erase on your plates again! lol

I LOVE those...and because I am the mother of a VERY active 2 1/2 year old (have you seen the pictures... ) I also LOVE Color Wonder!!

 

[jenniferknapp]

great to know!! thanks

 

[gratergirl]

here's a great place to get some trifle recipes..........
http://www.recipegoldmine.com/desstrifle/desstrifle.html
Thought I'd share.....I'm going to pick out a few to make. I'm sure we'll have a good recipe that will come with the product....but in case I want to switch it up some.

I have been thinking about that too, btu I looked back and it got just small stuff like that. I think if I get big stuff I would do it in my husband's name and at least then the receipt would be in a name on my taxes - I wonder if that would work.

I spent a lot on samples in change over, so, I am glad that it is my name.

I think I made about $3K in commission. I need to go back and ad dup my commission statements, I hate waiting on 1099s to know.

 

[Tara1021]

YIPPEE!!!! I'm so excited!!!

Any news on earning the mid season products?

 

[jrstephens]

Last year, if I am remembering correctly, we earned them with $1250 commissionable sales in March.

I HAVE to go to bed - yall don't talk until I get to work in the morning!!!!!

Good night!

Color Wonder is awesome, too! (but of course not on the plates... it wouldn't show up! lol) My kids have the Color Wonder finger paints, and lots of the markers!

I really like to write on my plates for shows. I write the special of the month, or the menu, etc.... it's fun, and the guests always think it's cool!
