What Makes the Latest Issue of EW Magazine a Must-Read for Empowering Women?

[Andrea King]

I just went to pick mine up today at Borders and they were out of stock. I guess I will order mine through PP. I just didn't want to have to wait for it.

I want to put my magazine in a binder. How many protective sleeves would I need to get?

What a really good idea, I think I'll do that! If you all have a Hastings in you area, that is where I got mine.

on second thought....

I am going to bring mine to Office Max and have them put it together. I think it will look a lot nicer.

Does Office Depot do that? Because the closest office max is about 45 minutes away and office depot is only about 5 miles away. I never knew you could have that type of store do that! Boy, I sure am enjoying this website! I never knew it was here! I just googled pampered chef one day and I found it and I think it is very awesome! To bad it took me 7 years to find a site like this! I just don't play on the web much!
Anyway! Thanks for the tip chefkristin!

okay, I am curious about taking your magazine and having it bound. My office has a binding machine and we bind things all the time. Are you talking about regular binding with the spiral on the side (the plastic ones)? Will it tear up the magazine?

75?!I didn't realize that there were so many pages. I bet it's pretty heavy.

What is everyones plans for EW? Will you be taking it to all shows or just to recruiting appts?

I don't know if Office Depot does it or not. I have an Office Max right down the street. I hope they can do, otherwise I will stick to my original plan and get the page protectors and put it in a 3 ring binder. I also work for Staples and would you believe that I don't even get a discount???? I did put in a request to offer some kind of discount to customers that are in Direct Sales. I think it would boost their business a lot!

Did anyone look into how much that costs? I'm just curious. It sounds like something I might want to do.

I used to work as a Stampin' Up! consultant and I would have my Catalog & Idea Book done at Kinko's every year. I think it was about $7 to have the spine cut off and spiral bound with a clear cover on the front and back. That is what I am planning on doing because it is a whole lot easier than tearing out pages and putting them in a binder. I'm sure it looks great but I don't have time and it will also take up less space this way.

Staples cut off the spine for me for $2. Then I got home and realized it was bigger than 8 1/2 x 11 and wouldn't fit in the page protectors. I thought I could trim it but might not get it even, so I brought it back to Staples. They have a machine that cuts it so all the pages are even -- I think they charged me another $2 to make the pages 8 1/2 x 11 -- well worth it! I bought pages protectors and a 3-ring notebook -- can't remember how much it cost, but not very much. I bought the kind of notebook where there is a clear pocket on the cover of the notebook -- perfect for putting the cover of the magazine in it!

Thanks for all the good info....Tina, I just recently heard of Stampin Up. I contacted a consultant near me to order the business booster stamp set. It came yesterday. It is really cool!! I haven't put it to use yet....I am trying to get over the fear of messing them up when I trim them to fit the blocks...LOL Why did you quit being a consultant?...just curious about the company, if it was personal issues, I don't expect an explanation.

 

[chefkristin]

I have it!

I got the Business Booster set along with another that I don't know the name of, but its to make recipe cards. I thought it would be cute for my prize basket.

So I went to Office Max....and they wanted to charge me $1.00 per page if laminated. That would cost over $100 to have the entire EW magazine done. So I am now back to the binder idea. It is actually turning out half way decent. I know I could have just laminated the front and back cover for a decent price but I want the pages protected as well.

Wow, I finally finished reading this yesterday...well actually at about 3am this morning, but it's yesterday in my mind since I've slept between then and now...anyhoo...It's awesome! I like how the articles are fairly brief, so if you want to share one with a particular person, you could copy (with their permission only, of course!) it and it would be fairly brief for them to read. I am going to bring mine to every show and give them to all potential recruits. I am going to ask that they return it if they don't want it, but I think it's a great investment of $3 if they sign!
