I'm in my 4th month and it's kit enhancement time. What products do you recommend I get (I do already have most of the stoneware)?
 
Do you have any of the cookware? I love my grillpan/press and 12" skillet. I use these at show's a lot. Do you have any SA? I use the large platter when if I cook a cake in the 12" skillet. I also love my SSB and take them to every show. That's all that I can think of off the top of my head.
 
What bonuses did you earn, if any? That'll help us recommend things for you!

I earned all 3 of the SS bonuses, but no plus bonuses. I also earned the Santoku and Chef's knife back in September.
 
Things I think are essential:

Easy Read Measuring Cups (plus the mini of course)
All the Best Cookbook
Kitchen Shears
MicroCooker (either size)
Rectangular Stoneware Baker

That's my $0.02! :) Good luck!
 
CookwareCookware would be good. Maybe the family skillet, cookbooks, silicone floral cupcake pan, chef's tools, honing tool for your knves (which by the way is on backorder according to one of the emails I received from HO :mad: ), or some woven selections to go with your stoneware. They are beautiful.
Decisions, Decisions!! It's so much fun to get 40% off!

I'm not sure what are in the bonuses that you earned but try to get something you wouldn't necessarily use at shows but just stuff you might like to have. Although I do use the family skillet, and those other things to show at my shows!!

Debbie :D
 
I am also ordering a few Christmas gifts w/ my 40% off... Nothing too expensive though b/c we don't have a lot of extra money and the kit enhancement month isn't that far off..
 
I definately suggest a piece of cookware, whatever piece you use most, even my DH who doesn't do much in house cooking noticed how much better our pans cook than the old ones I have in my cabinets.
 
Nothing.

Order on a host order when she has 30% off, then you'll get that discount plus your commission on it, making it cheaper than 40% off. Not to mention then you get the career sales and the incentive points.

I was thinking about that last night, too. If I were to buy the full $500 worth, it would cost me $300 + tax and the $4 for shipping. I'm currently at about $290 short of my goal for this month (my first chance at getting FD overrides and I know that at least two of my people will be making some money this month and the third said that she had some potential Christmas sales coming up in the next week or so). If I'm going to spend that much anyway, I should just see if someone in my family who already has a PHD number would be willing to order what I want and I'll just give them the money to cover it if I can't find some customers before the end of the month (I've got 2 things that I really want for Christmas, though, and I'm going to see if I can get those gifted to me).

What to do, what to do???....
