I would suggest that you don't order too much of anything until you decide how you want to proceed with your shows. There are 2 different types of show order forms you can choose, the standard 3-part forms or the outside-order form type. Since it's fairly early in the selling season, I would suggest you buy 100 catalogs, a pack of Season's Bests, and maybe some paring knives, twixit clips, and/or citrus peelers for door prizes and host gifts. You might want to add a few of the samples of pantry items to demo at your shows or give as show gifts/prizes, that's up to you. I wouldn't spend a lot of money on supplies until you start getting commissions coming in, though. JMHO. Good luck! :)
 
also, they charge .10 for paperwork/supply order forms and i would not reccommend buying these...you can download them in the download center of consultant's corner and once you get familiar, you won't even need to reference the order form for numbers to put into pampered partner...I know I am start =ing to memorize my most used item #'s like catalogs and such and the item # can normally be found on the item itself in the bottom corner like the pampered partner reciepts say DS23 at the bottom right corner, catalogs have DS16 written sideways on the back right corner(with that #, I'm not sure if it is for a pack of 25 or a pack of 100)
 
I would suggestThat you take advantage of the new consultant "special". It is on the yellow sheet of paper that came in your starter kit.

I found that being a new consultant - I gave away a lot of catalogs to people in order to get my name out there. This "package" seemed to help me.
