I loves Pampered Chef. I decided to do a book catalog party to get a few things for the new house. My bowls already have chips. The mandolin is weak. It's not as quality as my mom's or aunt's things from years past. I was highly disappointed.
I hate it when there are local events like a food and wine tasting or a charity event, and it's table after table of reps from these different companies. Just give me the wine and chocolate, I clearly don't want to talk about ah-may-zing phony weight lost products or look for jewelry and purses right now. Just let me write a check for your cause and be on my merry way.
The local major kids resale event had a winding checkout line...with tables of MLM reps making up the barriers. It was so awkward. You shut them down, then stand there for a few minutes until line moves just enough to put you smack in front of the next sales rep. I didn't go back to that sale again.

If your bowls have chips in them already, you should contact them - apparently they stand behind their products and are very good with returns/exchanges....and it doesn't have to be within a certain window of time - they guarantee their products. At least this is what I was told by someone that was at the party I was at the other week.
I like Tastefully Simple, because food. And you'll have to pry my Onion Onion out of my cold dead hand.
This is literally the only thing I miss about my XMIL. She sold that and would give us stuff for free. I loved the salsa mix and beer bread and a bunch of other stuff.

I love their Garlic Garlic.
We had a day where they cancelled school due to a storm that hadn't quite started yet. People were pissy on FB about it. Another guy and I tried to explain it was a logistic nightmare for households with 2 working parents to drop kids off at school/before school care if they delayed school, only to get to work and have school cancelled. ANYWAY, an itworks crazy messaged me and said I wouldn't have to deal with those logisitcs of childcare and had a chance to make close to 6 figures if I joined her team and got more family time. I ignored. BUT, i wanted to reply that I was one raise away from making 6 figures now and that I enjoy working.]
And no one has mentioned LifeVantage?? grrrr I have a guy that sells this crap and is constantly posting nonsense from thetruthaboutcancer website. and how the government doesn't want you to know that chemo and radiation don't work, but his stuff does!
OMG. So I was just gifted a pair of dinosaur LLR leggings by someone who clearly hates me. I was googling to find a pic of the print when I found that they are selling on ebay for like $80. One sold for $28 with the following description:
"These are in used condition; there is pilling throughout, some wear at crotch area, as well as an unpleasant scent in that area from previous owner! !!
I also believe she stretched out the hip area when she hung to dry on a hanger."
AND SOMEONE BOUGHT THEM FOR TWENTY-EIGHT DOLLARS. WHAT IS WRONG WITH PEOPLE?!

Oh, also, I recently found a new hairdresser I really like. I've seen her three or four times. Last week she was pushing Ar.bonne hard while cutting my hair.
Wtf? I am here for a haircut, not that shit.
Nooooo, this is fucked! You're a captive!
My mom used to have parties for the bottom of the barrel MLM jewelry. Stuff is terrible quality. I went to every one of her parties because I felt so sorry for her when no one would show up but she seriously had one every few months. At one of them, the rep said, "I sell this because I decided I didn't want anyone else to raise MY FAMILY but me!" It was so offensive and I didn't even have a kid at that point.

I'm just so fucking sick of hearing about how "life changing" and "amazing" it is to be part of an MLM. NO ONE naturally exudes that much enthusiasm for what is A JOB. Also? I don't want to hear about your job, really. I don't gush about how amazing my company is for providing me with a salary and benefits - because I've earned them. They all sound brainwashed.

So, what you're saying is, you DON'T want me to start blathering on about my job and the excitement of processing payroll every week on FB? Dammit.
ETA: And I promise you, if I did, you'd have no issues falling asleep at night if you read about it!

Holy crap! YES!!!! This is the thing that my one friend sells - the one that called me out of the blue when I was pregnant trying to sell to me....yea....don't get me started.....

This is one of the worst things I have ever read on here.

I'm sitting here right now dicking around online instead of working. IT'S LIFE CHANGING.
Except for the part where I just want to go the fuck home and eat Cinnamon Toast Crunch in my sweatpants because I have cramps but I'm stuck here until 7 p.m.
Oh, also, I recently found a new hairdresser I really like. I've seen her three or four times. Last week she was pushing Ar.bonne hard while cutting my hair.

I would switch hairdressers. Not even a second chance after that shit.
I am confused by Usborne books. They are a reputable brand and one I have been buying in stores in the Uk for years. I have no idea why they have decided to go the MLM route.
not sure about the UK side of things, but it's been a direct sales company for over 20 years in the US. A friend's mom sold it back in the 90s. You will find some of the books at bookstores and other places but the only way to get access to all the titles is through a consultant.
Kylie Jenner releases a lip gloss ? Jordan put out a new shoe ? Patti Labelle made a sweet potato pie ? Dre has new headphones ? Diddy has a new brand of Vodka ? Friend or family member starts a business ✋
What's wrong with this picture? Why are we so quick to support someone we don't know, who has plenty of money, but have a million reasons not to support someone we know living a regular lifestyle?
When you support direct sales and small business you are helping a family you know rather than contributing a celebrities endless bank accounts!

Food for thought! ?
I'd rather buy headphones from Dre than a crapass pair of LLR leggings. He doesn't annoy me on a daily basis on my Facebook feed about being a #manboss and how by recruiting 50 Cent and Eminem they are now both executive consultants in their SPARE TIME while RAISING FAMILIES and working FULL TIME! YOU GO 50 AND MARSHALL! #teamworkmakesthedreamwork

You know, I'm a consumer. I think this is what rankles me the most. I don't appreciate being "pressured" not only to spend my disposable income, but to fucking join an MLM, under the guise of "helping a family bolster their bank account." Are you a business, or a charity? Sorry, I'd much rather donate to a REAL charity, if that's your business proposition, than buy some Shakeology crap.
