Is anyone else having the problem of the Coppertone T-shirt being a bit see-thru? I just tried on the XL to see how tight it might be. I got away with the MLB tshirts last year. I'm not sure if I'm wearing this tomorrow? DH & I both think it screams " look at my bra". LOL I don't have a beige bra any longer.

Last year we got to wear khakis & sneakers with MLB tshirts. That would have looked nice with these shirts & tan hat. Oh well.

I'm bringing some left over napkins too. ANYTHING to start cutting into my ever growing stash.

I'll be glad when tomorrow is over. I'm having a hard time getting into this event for some reason. I haven't read my stuff yet. I better get with it. I'm doing 4 of these this week & more later.

FYI: I've had no problems with microwave on cardboard tables. And I even put the microwave at the end instead of the middle & its still been fine every time.

Yes, it's very see-thru and way too big for me. It's in the dryer now, I'm trying to shrink it but I doubt I'll have any luck. I am wearing a white cami under mine however because it's way too see-thru!

LOL, unfortunately, there's no room in the shirt for me to add a cami. I'm more a 1X - 2X person. Anyway, I think I would die of heat if I added a layer.

Good luck shrinking your shirt. Too bad you couldn't send the extra fabric to my shirt.

Regular shirt it is for me I guess. And more shirts for me to give away.

good to know. The microwave just seems so big and I have a small one....

Darn it no green giant events are showing up here I am hoping for more things during the week once school is out here. That way my Husband and I can have more days off together! This weekend I am doing two SuperTarget events! That means no table for me to lug around I don't start my coppertone marathon until next weekend!

 

[SplshMtn99]

I just got done studying a Coppertone brochure. I think my eyes are just gonna glaze over. So many types of sunscreen. I really hope there aren't too many questions. I'm kind of lost between all the types.

 

[kpauley]

I agree that the Coppertone shirts are more see thru than I’d like. The XL is baggy on me so I’m thinking it might be OK that way. I do have a nude bra so that may also help. I’ll figure it out in the morning.

Green Giant event is not showing up within 20 miles of me. I see it at stores 40 miles out, but that’s further than I’m going to go. When I was at WM a couple of weeks ago, the Sunflower lady was doing this event so maybe that’s why it’s not closer to me.

On the way to my daughter’s Track meet tonight, I stopped in Kmart to check out the Hershey Anti-Oxidant bar situation for Sunday. Doesn’t look good at all. None of the featured product and only 2 bags of the alternate. Hopefully, there’s some in the stockroom or I’ll be there 5 hours looking bored.

Splash - The very nice, clean Super WM, within 2 miles of my house that opened here in January, doesn’t have a lot of the events the “older” WM’s do. I typically go to a WM about 15 miles away. I'll only be doing my 2nd event at the "new" store later in the month compared to 12ish at the "older" WM for the same time period. I wonder if it has something to do with the new WM’s not being “established” yet. Who knows?

Good luck to everyone doing events this weekend.

 

[SplshMtn99]

I'm going to refer everyone to www.coppertone.com. Good website & it has a glossary.

 

[PatriciaH]

I booked two of the Thursday SPi events at WM. One on 5/24 (Betty Crocker/Natures Valley) and one on 6/21 (Lifestyle Salads for 10am-2pm.) I wish there were more on dates during the week too! On 5/19 I have Market Pantry Philly Steak at ST. I have never worked a Wal-Mart before. Do they even have a demo area?

 

[SplshMtn99]

HEY LOOK. I just went to the Pampers Splashers website to look around....and they have printable $1.50 coupons for Coppertone WaterBabies.

I'm printing up a few to give to a few special customers who buy one!

Splashers: http://us.pampers.com/en_US/products/page/pdt_details/selectedProduct/sp_oview.do

 

[Microcell]

Coppertone or Pampers? I 'm just gonna take a nap while you decide....

4 nine year old girls that went to bed at 2AM= really irritable me!

Now they are singing songs about getting on everybody's nerves. I may snap well before the event even starts!

 

[mudnuri]

Here I am thinking the see-thru shirt will help my sales LOL!

Made a list of the products, hoping to find them easily enough to get an accurate inventory.

printing off 15 water babies coupons, thats enough from my ink!....Will hand them out to those who I think will actually use them...

the selling points seem to be pretty much the same for everything...I dont see much difference, other than- oil free- or lotion etc... oh well I'm not going to sweat it...

Going to stop at kmart on my way home, and see what they have for the hersheys' event tomorrow..........

Will let you all know how my first event goes when I get home

Brandy

 

[dodukes]

Goodluck mudnuri!!! This is one doozy of a first event !!..lol

I was reading the inst. this a.m. and really its more paperwork than anything, the instr. are like 3 lines, i think this will go easy and fast. Hopefully when i take my break they wont berak into my brown box and steal my diapers. Im going to try on this see thru shirt now and see what it looks like...hehehe

 

[ldb1030]

Yep, I'll be pissed if someone takes mine on break! I'll try to close up my box pretty good.

What I do when I could inventory is use my instruction sheet and each item listed, I count those then write the number next to that item. Then total them up for the page I have to mail in!

 

[dodukes]

ok well the shirt is fine but then again i have a nude bra , so no problems there altjo it is WAY big but i will wear it so that i dont have to wear my regular polo and have to wash it tonight for tomorrow...lol.

I do the same thing i add up next to the product on my instructions and then total it at theend of demo. let me ask, do you guys include the prodfuct you bought??? At first i wasnt but then technically it is prodcut being sold so now i included it in my beg inventory and end sales.

 

[SplshMtn99]

Good luck Brandy. You'll be fine; especially in your see-thru t-shirt. Want to make a bet that the sales contest winners were wearing the t-shirt & had great bodies? (I keep thinking of the Hawaiin Tropic girls. )

Dodukes, My beginning inventory # is before I buy mine. So its like: beginning # minus what I bought minus what I sold equals ending inventory. It pretty much answers the questions on the report form that way. Hope that makes sense.

 

[HERSEY]

Good thing I'm not doing the Coppertone event. No one would buy since I could pass for Snow white.

I have Dannon yogurt today and Diet Pepsi tomorrow.

I picked up 2 more events for May since NOTHING but NOTHING is showing up for June here. Might be a long month for me.

 

[cynjam]

Dodukes, My beginning inventory # is before I buy mine. So its like: beginning # minus what I bought minus what I sold equals ending inventory. It pretty much answers the questions on the report form that way. Hope that makes sense.

This is what I do, too. For "# of pkgs used for sampling?", do you put # purchased or # used? If you bought 4, but only used 3, which would you report?

BTW, I wanted to tell everyone with loads of napkins, cups, and spoons leftover, I've been donating my extras to local Scout Troops, Schools and Churches. We have one Church that serves a free dinner once a month to anyone that shows-up, and they really appreciate the extra plastic/paper.

 

[dodukes]

Just back frm the event. It really wasnt too bad, this was probably one of my more fun evetns due to i had tons of stuff the entire time to pass out. Most people didnt want to actually spray the product. Some people even passed on the free diapers.but oh well. I estimated very los like at 25 dont really know for sure and have no idea but there were probaly close to 500 bottles of the stuff all thru the store.

 

[SplshMtn99]

I'm back too. I found Coppertone in a 3rd location while walking in today. I have NO CLUE how many bottles there were or how many I sold. Its very possible there were 500 bottles of just spray between all the locations.

I know I ran out of my 15 Waterbabies coupons about half way thru. I know the 7 Waterbabies bottles I had on my table over the course of the day sold. I don't know if I sold any other kind or any more from displays. Price was $7.87. That's why the Waterbabies sold with the $1.50 off coupon. And I know the coupons were taken at the registers.

Gave away my shirts. And almost all the Splashers. The rest the manager took to put in the break room for employees.

And yes, no one wanted to spray themselves. The store also had tester bottles & one was Waterbabies.

I get to do this again on Tues, Wed & Thurs. Oh joy!

Tomorrow, its Hersheys Anti Oxident Chocolate.
Monday ---- I GET TO SEE MY HUSBAND. woohoo -- 1 day this week!
Friday, its Synders snacks.

By the end of May (5 mths), I will have already made as much money as I did from May to December (8 mths) of last year.
