Yes I know, here we go again. I have a dumb question....
Did we ever have the opportunity to earn the DCB. I have one and can't for the life of me remember how I got it. If I earned it, if I paid for it, or if someone allowed me to use their host special.
Does anyone know. The lid to mine broke, but the bottom is fine. I was going to use it for Sept shows, but I can't until I get it fixed, unless I borrow one.
 
I know it was Host Special for February....
 
Leslie, first of all, not a dumb question!

I have a DCB too, but you know, I can't honestly remember how I got mine either! I can't wait to see everyone's answers so maybe I can figure out how I got mine too!! LOL!!
 
Janet, you gotta quit typing the same time as me!! LOL!!!
 
DCB????? :confused:

LOL! I think we're ALL doing it...
 
I got mine when it was the host special in Feb. Was it included that time we could earn stoneware/pc dollars based on the number of stones we sold?
 
I would like the acquire (sp) the DCB without knowing that I did;D
 
That's still the one thing I really want but haven't had the funds to get it.... that and the cookware :)

I remember at one point ( can't remember which time though ) when there was a Stoneware Special, it was available to hosts for 60% off, but wasn't part of the 20% off guest special........was that maybe last September?

So, any suggestions on how I should go about returning it?

You need to figure out how you got it!

If you used someone's host special then it is technically listed in their name, not yours...you'll have to find that show to return it.

You could MAYBE try calling HO...since the item is newer (under 3 years old still I believe and stoneware has a 3 year warranty) they MAY take it back without tying it to a show/order.
 
I earned it for free last year when I chose that specific Bonus package (with the old Super Starter program) ....I think that it came with a stackable cooling rack, the DCB, tiles & stripes towels and maybe the silicone whisks?
 
I know I got mine last Feb when the past host didn't want two pieces of Stoneware.
 
I got mine when I was submitting my own show and had an extra half price item so my mom bought it since I still live with her...hopefully when I get a place of my own she will forget that she paid for it and I can take it with me. Just kidding, I am actually going to get another one in October. My mom keeps telling everyone that she hopes that I never get married because she won't have anything to cook with then.

That promotion says "selection excludes Deep Covered Baker".
 
But remember in Feb, they added the DCB in for hosts only.

Yup, that's why I said not what I can see from that...

I'm really thinking she got it in Feb. (Host special).
 
Ok, she remembers but left us all hanging after this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
