Just a quick one. Submitted my order online yesterday afternoon, and today my order there is in Order Tracking. There is an invoice number, but when I click on that its giving me what would appear to be an invoice page (there is a box for Print Invoice) but it is blank??

Have noticed some posts where people are saying their invoice has been published online, so was just wondering if it is just that they have created an invoice number but not updated the invoice yet? How soon should the invoice updating happen?

When my invoice is showing stuff will it then give me a final report on whats in stock and what isn't? A couple of my things were showing as short on stock, and also wondering whether I'm going to get Orange vouchers or not (2 customer vouchers and 1 rep voucher).

Hi Clare

It is normal to see a blank invoice to start with, they are preparing your order, and you will find if you check it tomorrow, it will tell you what they are delivering, how much you are going to be charged, what free things they are sending you etc.

Those hampers look fab. I haven't really prepared for xmas very will this year. I think next year I may go all out like you guys.

Well my delivery came yesterday. For once everything was correct (a rarity for me!) only 2 times were OOS but will be delivered in due course. I managed to deliever all of my orders bar 2 which I'm very happy about. I can have my weekend to myself :j

I got the snuggle boots as a freebie this camp and i have fallen in love with them! They are SOOOOOO comfortable!

I only have 1 and 1/2 roads on the previous camp which is about 40 houses, but only around 5-6 orders ever come from those roads!

Not quite sure how i'm going to handle the 2 short camps yet. I'm only on 18 so this is still a full one! I think I may put both books out and explain that 1/2 of their order will be delivered on 1 date and 1/2 the other date, depending on which book they order from. Obviously this wont be very good for creative ordering as the customers will be doing this themselves :rolleyes:

Thanks nixnax, to be honest putting the hamper together didn't take long, about half an hour each. It was just a case of deciding what products I was going to show, etc.

It's the cellophane bit that takes longer! LOL.

You might find some customers don't have time to compare prices in both books and will just order from both or one or the other without checking prices.

thanks for all your help, after i wrote that post i found out tom goes in hospital on the 15th for a week, so now i cant do c1 as i wont be here to give it out or put order in, so i think i am either going to miss out c1 am i allowed to miss one campaign out? im sure my customers wont mind if i explain situation as its only 1 week longer without doing c1 before their c2 orders, i am annoyed though as i already have c1 brochures but it cant be helped.

yes you can miss a campaign, you need to let your SL or ASM know you are doing this.

Can anyone not help you out by delivering your books? Talk to your SL or ASM and see if they or a rep near you could help.

Thanks :T - yes if I click on the order reference it gives me a list of what I've ordered but no indication of whether its available or not. Today, the order status is "prepared" so I'll have a look tomorrow and see if the invoice has been updated.
Just me being impatient.
I'll be like a kid at Christmas when the box turns up.
Now you've told me there may be extra free things I am even worse!!! :rotfl:

I bought the little cellophane giftbags too from a company online and am going to put 2 or 3 items in these, with maybe a few sparkly bits and just tie a little ribbon round. These are quick and easy to do and not fiddly.

Was thinking of the 4 in 1 nail buffer, a hand cream and the moisturising gloves. Another one with the ped egg, footworks foot cream and the socks. Then maybe put them on a bed of crumpled tissue paper. Pink of course to go with the Avon theme or maybe xmassy colours. Hmm, will have to think about that one.
