    I just want to double check something with the more experienced reps - my MIL has ordered the anew clinical lift face cream (30ml) at £12.50. In the sale booklet for C6 there is a gift set containing that, a lipstick & some other bits for £8. Is it definately the same face cream?

    If it is that would be great, saving her a few quid and extra bits for her in the process - assuming it's in stock of course!

    hi lozza,

    Not an experianced rep but, yes it is. They are selling off left over freebies from other cats by the look of it. You know how in C4 they had the beauty bonus? It is those kinds of things.

    Flipping heck, I'm knackered!! All those flats!! _pale_ .

    One woman from my old territory said she didn't want a book and a man from my new territory didn't want one but a lovely lady came out of her flat as I put the book through and said that she had just been visiting her sister who had an Avon book and she wanted to order so many things from it but wouldn't have gotten the delivery for ages so was really pleased that I had put the book through. She said that she would definitely be placing an order :j .

    She also gave me a good tip about the trade button and said that it worked until midday so will make my wednesday mornings the day that I drop off and collect the books to all the flats.

    Really stupid newbie question here, but see when declaring the income, do you guys actually pay the money into a separate account that you get in before paying avon? I take it we don't put down the whole avon total order as turnover, because its avon's not our own? We just declare any commission (if I didn't spend it?)

    I'm so bad at these kind of things (i'm self employed already, paying my own NI contributions)

    Yep! Same thing (Thermafirm) but a trial size (10ml).

    :rotfl: I know just what you mean about flats Emily - I have 12 stairwells with up to 40 stairs each (no lift, even if I 'did' lifts, which I don't). It's supposed to keep you fit :p

    Well I did get another two order totalling £10.00 yesturday but I can say that this is my worst camp so far. I do not think I am going to make MOV never mind HOV. I really wanted to make HOV to get the samples on the iNRDP. Or whattever it is LOL.

    But only up to £64.00. I have got a mate coming roound to have a look on Sunday. She might spend £10.00 and I suppose with cats on top that will give my MOV. Oh well. I know I can't do great everytime but I really am quite dissappointed at the min. Go about 30 cats to get and because I had issues with cats only having 20 of them left. I didn't have time to get round my whole t2 so I missed 30 houses out this time, they did only have the last cat right before the order so they wont know. I am gonig to give them cats next week so It will be 3 weeks since they had 1. So I think camp 7 is going to be a good one. Well I hope. Got no new customers this order either.

    So if I ordered it from the sale booklet it would be a smaller bottle then? If so that's no good MIL wouldn't be happy and I need to be on her good side lol!:p

    Hopefully with the ones you dropped off today you might get some big orders - it's the first time you've given some of the books I think in the flats? I had some big orders this time from houses I hadn't done before so haven't been delivered an avon book since at least January if not before - I think some people panic and think "quick better order don't know if they'll bother bringing a book again" lol. Hopefully might be the case for you and give you some big orders, or at least new customers, to boost your total:beer:

    Just checked on the website for the beauty bonus bag containing the face cream my MIL wants and it says:
    Beauty Bonus Bag
    price: £8.00


    White zipped toiletries bag with silver coloured PVC trim and handle. Contains Anew Clinical Instant Face Lift 30ml, Ultra Colour Rich Lipstick in Frozen Rose and Christian Lacroix Rouge Shower Gel 150ml - all full size. Fabric bag approx. 20cm x 11.5cm x 13cm.






    So now I'm confused, as someone said it was a trial size, but on the website it says it is full size, at 30ml, which is the same as in C6?
