  • I'm sure everyone on here will have their fingers crossed for you Lozza - I remember being in a similar position during the last recession, so I have some idea how you feel. :grouphug:

    Humpf! I've just been out to deliver my frst lot of books, the first area is meant to have 20 houses so of course I took 20 books with me but I could only find 1 house! I'm hot, sweaty and fed up now.

    I have another two streets to do so I'll try those this afternoon, I hope all this is going to be worth it as at the moment I dont think it is!

  • Hi All greet024.gif

    Well no Avon for me today as I submitted my C5 yesterday. Total amount was over £400 so really happy about that.

    Im still busy though as I am moving soon. If all goes well I'll be moving next weekend. Get to view the house on Tuesday so will find out then when we can get the keys. Really excited as this will be a permanat house so we can at last start to settle. icon_mrgreen.gif

    Can anyone check for me if I will need to change ASM when I move. Im only moving a couple of miles.

    Hope you all have a good weekend.

    I'm a little happier, I trotted off to find one of my other streets this afternoon and found it easily, its a cul-de-sac with 15 houses and a playground on the edge. I dropped off 5 books then came back for lunch as my guts were rumbling lol!

    I'll go back in about an hour and drop off the other 10. I'm hoping my OH will be willing to collect them for me on Tuesday afternoon, well he isnt working at the moment so I dont see how he can get out of that one!

    It's quiet in here this afternoon!

    I've just been out to deliver books to two of my streets, thats another 20 books down. On the way back the landlady of the local pub stopped me to say she's going to be ordering and the bar maids might be too, brilliant!

    I have another 26 houses left to canvass which I'll do later in the week once I've (hopefully) got the books back that I dropped off today.

    One question I have is...do items from HT and any bits like paper bags and other sales aids count towards your total for MOV?

    As far as I know, everything you order (including brochures) counts towards your MOV but you only get commission on brochure items xx

    No, as HT prices are already reduced :D

    I have to sort out my brochures and get my orders out but just don't have any motivation today :rolleyes: 2 customers have asked me to go on Monday but that still leaves 16 houses to visit :eek: going to wait for OH to take me as there's too much to carry :D
