Yes they sure can - I have a host from Friday who had a guest book for this Thursday (it was planned in advance) and she can get the host special again at her friend's show - just make sure and put the past host discount number in and she will have to pay S&H but she can get a great deal on cookware!

clarifying: If they had booked a show off their own show they could order one host special as past host and one as host at the new show!janetupnorth said:
Did you all realize that if the Past host ordered the 7pc SS set it would be enough on it's own to call it a catalog show (but there would be no commission)? I am not pointing out that the past host order counts toward the minimum show. If someone asks I will tell them that it counts but I am not offering that.
