Is it the swim bag in HT with the new hair oil on the front? That one is a demo product not clearance so you will only be able to order one this time. You can back order another one next time though.

Ive definately ordered from my Back HT. It always shows me the current HT and the back HT when I place an online order and just lets me add products from there.

And have also ordered more than 1 item from HT clearance, I got 5 of the basket and tissue paper sets the other week for £1.25 each for me to make up Christmas hampers for my rellies :-)

Yes, you can order as much as you like from your back HT clearance but you won't get it at that price. The only way you will get it is if it's actually in your current HT clearance as well, which is the price you will be charged.

I didnt actually mean from clearance Marsdencuckoo, I ordered the tiny tilla baby change when it was in HT then ordered another the next campaign so I had a spare for at my Mums when new baby comes, got them both at the rep price.
Ive only ordered clearance from the current HT campaign so not sure.

If i give a customer a C12 brochure, with my own printed off leaflet saying buy X product and get a free gift. The product in question is half the price in c11, therefore i am thinking that the customer pays me £7, i order the £3.50 one = £3.50 profit to me, which i will purchase a £1ish gift to give as the freebie.
Is this kind of thing allowed?

Thankyou

Just to add to MC's answer, be careful when using old brochures for backorders. For example, you are using C12 brochures for C13 in order to make your brochures go further. You will not have the facility to backorder from C11 and will (unless C13 has a better price) need to take the free gift into account from your £7 item (which will be £1.75 profit less the cost of your free gift).

Having said that, I always do an offer in my brochures. Either a free gift for minimum spend, little bit off the cost of a new item (subject to minimum spend) or offer of samples. Some peeps order items from the clearance section of HT but I play safe (never know if they are out of stock) and clearly state what the freebie is (a low priced item from the current brochure).

I loved the double ended eye pencils. Won't buy anything now tho as they've sneakily gone back to testing on animals

I have finally got my manager to agree that i am going over to friends and family after her trying to keep me going, but i am wondering can i send back books that i will not be needing or is her offer of buying them off me a better one?

usually no we can't return brochures, occasionally they will agree to it under special circumstances, so certainly easier to just get your manager to buy them off you
