I got my free product from the survey. It is the large rectangle platter with tiles. I don't have it so that's good but I have no clue where I will store this. (And the two real, miniture kitchen sets and real small mixer my daughter got for Christmas in addition to the three dishtowels and two heart-shaped serving dishes I received.)
 
Wow how nice! I love my white SA Platter with handles :-)
 
Free shipping would be great. Several companies are doing that now. I have a friend who sells Home and Garden Party products and they recently started a no shipping charge policy. They added to the price of each item. Their shipping was based on how much you bought. But, our shipping price is great compared to others. Even if you buy a $4 product a lot of times your shipping would be 5.95...up to 10.00 5.95, etc...or even 3.95.

One of my hosts sells Premier Design jewelry. If orders total $40 or more, the items get shipped directly to the guest's home. That would be nice!
 
Yes..over $60.00 would be great to add free shi pping , this is a great feature. I mean, it is sometimes difficult to sell a $4.00 item and have a $4.00 shipping, but I agree we do have better shipping prices than some companies.
 
I just did a short, maybe 10 minute survey for PC. It didn't say anything about a prize but I hope I get something....I love free stuff!
