Brides: Need a cool Registry idea?

I have taken on a new fun "job" for the slower seasons (a way to get out of the house)... I am an independent consultant for The Pampered Chef! I post this not to try to sell you anything, but if you have ever used and Pampered Chef products, you'll understand how exciting this is! I thought I might give my bloggers the opportunity to Register with the Pampered Chef (or for the married ones... host a show!).

The process is so easy and the benefits are endless. Go to the website at (www.pamperedchef.biz/DawnBrennan) and sign up on your own. There is assistance to help you find the items you need for your kitchen. We can provide registry announcement cards for Showers and for the wedding, just spread the word through family and friends that you have registered with the Pampered Chef.

Why would you want to do this? Several reasons, but the best is that with every purchase made from your registry, you will earn credit toward FREE and discounted products. A bride can earn up to $200 in free products, 4 products at 50% off and up to 30% off of additional products.

You will be able to see what items have been purchased, add more products and collect your Rewards 24/7 via the Internet!!

Another cool idea, which I just found out about yesterday... a Pampered Chef Bridal Shower!!! How this works... you register, invite your guests to the shower, they come and I display some products, ect, through a short cooking show demonstration. Everyone eats, chats, purchases items for you as a shower gift (and can purchase their own items), they go home... and you get the products delivered straight to you! Works AWESOME for out of town brides. Also, you still get the rewards mentioned above! Sound like fun? Make sure if you are interested in this, to let me know ASAP, cause we are headed into a busy year of wedding videos!

Already married? No problem. I'd love to do a Cooking Show for you! We have over 10 themes for you to pick from!! The host rewards are awesome, so please let me know if you would like to bring Pampered Chef into your home! We also do Fundraisers - for those with kids!!!

Just imagine the great meals and great memories you'll create with you have the right cookware, tools and tips from the Pampered Chef!

FYI - Yahoo and Comcast email users!!!

Okay, not sure what is happening out there, but there is a problem with a few email providers in cyberspace blocking business based IP addresses from sending through their servers (in effort to block all the spam mail happening out there), and after a bit of online research, there are some others out there having the same problem....

Long story short... my host is one of those getting blocked in several cases. I know for sure that Comcast and Yahoo are among the 2 doing this new censorship thing (there may be others). So for those of you that use those 2, please try to add us to your safe senders lists if you can... and even then, it may not work for you to receive emails from us. Please call us or email us from a different address so we can communicate properly. Hopefully this won't last long, because I have already experienced some problems with current clients not getting my emails... and thankfully I have caught it.

I am excellent in returning emails, so if you have emailed me and don't receive a response in a day or 2, please call us to assure we can answer your questions.

Gotta love technology!!!
