Thanks for the replies ladies.... so if we order one of the 'stated' items from each campaign ourselves (providing our customers spend £10 across the brochure which they will) is there anything stopping us from getting this robe for £4 (if you catch my drift).

I assume Avon doesn't know who orders what, so apart from us knowing which customers want to take part in the loyalty campaign there isn't anything stopping us from joining in is there??

I have done that, only my mum and one other lady took up the offer so I took it up on behalf of someone else too

Does anyone have the link to C12 online please? Can't find the link I saved

Hi ladies,

Does anyone know what size the free bathrobes are and if they are cotton??

Yes it is 100% Cotton (sort of a thin waffley sort of material) and in a size M/L (which they say one size should fit all but I am a 10/12 and absolutely swim in it!!!). Saying that, I have rolled the sleeves up and do wear it as it is nice and thin so very cool for these hot summer months. Not exactly a trend setting style but who cares

My MIL commented she wouldn't mind one when she was helping me pack orders last week so I am buying a few on the back of some customer orders of glimmersticks (I will defo use the soaps if I have to order them myself and I figure the hand creams will always be good freebies )

Hi Paula,

Looks like you're doing really well. :T Welcome to the thread and no need to 'lurk' on here..... just join is as/when.

As for the robe offer (I actually ordered the full set in HT originally but sent the robe back when I realised the 'opportunity' to get it/them for free.....), the knack as I see it is to organise it in C13 i.e. back order the glimmersticks (even had one customer order one in C13 for £4 ), then order as many soaps for £1 as you qualify for (great value at that price anyway - chances are you'll have sold some at a higher price than that already...), add in the handcreams next campaign and Bob's your Uncle - free robe(s) :T

Have already promised a free robe to a new rep I signed up recently (one of my best customers so will be losing on sales but adding to my team and no hassle of doing the deliveries). Pretty sure there's a downside to what I'm doing short term but hopefully long term it will pay off.

Just wondering, has anyone bought the Bumper Box from the Online offers in Camp13? What kind of stuff do you get? I just automatically assume you will get lumbered with a load of stuff that Avon are struggling to shift or am I way off the mark?

MarsdenCuckoo

Sorry, can't help you on that one, SG. Have never ordered a Bumper Box but I have one customer, who always orders the Bargain Bags @ £10'ish inc a freebie and she's always been well chuffed with what's in those. She's just signed up to be a 'personal rep' but even she wasn't tempted with the Bumper Box so am guessing that maybe you could be right.....

i predict a robe shortage!!!

will be the flip flop saga all over again! :eek:

which was same as the purple antler bag last year :eek:
