i think if i managed to get an order of about £100 i managed to get around £20 comission, not very good if you are out in the freezing cold delivering brochures, then collecting them 2 days later and then going out to other doors. Its okay though for the representatives only catalogue, you get really good bargains i think I bought the 50 sample vials of womens perfume for £4.99 at the time.freebie_junkie wrote:really? i always thought avon ladies got a good commision.Need to get rid of my Yankee Candle Habit, Not very money saving of me

Got mine all wrapped up in a RM plastic bag as the 2 tiny samples were in a normal brown paper envelope and had got damaged obviously! Got a little lippy in a nasty colour and a sample of Anew cream which I told them I was already using. No comp slip or literature or brochure. Very poor marketing from Avon, samples in bin (except the Anew which I just slapped on), won't be using Avon again has put me right off, obviously don't listen to people do they??0

After writing a fairly detailed e-mail, today received hand addressed envelope containing:
3 samples of foundation
a lipstick
2 samples from the Anew range.
All the samples had the word Avon on them somewhere, and I expect that Avon assumed that I would be able to contact them as I had already used their website to get in touch in order to obtain said samples!0 -
Hi I too have e-mailed them today
Thx!! 0 -
Got mine today too. Big brown envelope contained a sample of foundation and a sample of bodywash, bit disappointing but they where free and it was worth a go
