aww thanks!! I'll be doing shows through September (for free cookware, of course!!) but then that'll be it....but I'm sure I'll be around here for awhile!!
 
Here is an OOF that is designed for APO orders (no tax, but direct shipping charges). May be helpful if anyone wants to modify it.

Jennifer: truly sorry to hear you are leaving...I have loved reading your contributions!

Can anyone modify this for me??? I love it.
 
Small mistake foundI see that Home office and whoever made the Sept. outside order form on here both put the seasoning set in the regular items column, instead of in the Pantry section. For those of us who's states don't tax pantry items, this could cause some problems. I changed it on mine (see below). I think I'll email HO about it, too.

I usually use the HO outside order forms, but I think I'll use my own just because of this! (unless HO changes it!!).

We have equal opportunity taxing. Kansas doesn’t want the pantry items to feel left out.
 

Frequently Asked Questions

What does CC outage mean in the context of Pampered Chef?

CC outage refers to a temporary disruption in the Customer Care system, which can affect order processing, customer inquiries, and other essential functions. During this time, representatives may experience delays in accessing information or processing transactions.

What are Custom OOFs and how do they relate to CC outages?

Custom OOFs, or Out of Office messages, are personalized responses set by representatives to inform customers of their availability. During a CC outage, it’s important to check if these messages are still in place to ensure customers receive timely communication.

How can I check if my Custom OOFs are active during a CC outage?

You can verify the status of your Custom OOFs by logging into your Pampered Chef account and navigating to the settings section. There, you should find an option to view or edit your Out of Office messages to ensure they are correctly set up.

What should I do if my Custom OOFs are not in place during a CC outage?

If your Custom OOFs are not active, it’s advisable to set them up as soon as possible. This can help manage customer expectations and provide them with alternative contact options or information about when they can expect a response.

Who can I contact for assistance if I experience issues with Custom OOFs during a CC outage?

If you encounter difficulties with your Custom OOFs or have questions about the CC outage, you can reach out to Pampered Chef's support team through their official contact channels. They can provide guidance and help resolve any issues you may be facing.
