    Smile I might be selling Avon...

    I phoned an Avon lady and she is coming tomorrow to explain to me how it works. I have been thinking to do this since my aunt stopped selling it...She had been our Avon lady for 20 years now...I know I can count on orders from my family, for sure, since they all bought from my aunt.

    Anyone else sell Avon and is it any trouble for you? I don't want to make big buissness out of this. I don't want to pressure people in buying AT ALL. I figured with all the people I know around here, if they know I sell Avon, when they need something, they can call me.

    Well, I'll let you know what I chose to do, tomorrow.

    Ah, the Avon lady. I used to love when I would spend my summers with my gramma in Ohio and the Avon lady would come. We would spend hours chatting and looking over the catalog. Gramma always let me pick something special. Usually the lip glosses or something like that. Good luck to you!

    I love Avon. My mother has started selling it. I love several of their fragences. They have great nail care items and polishes too. Best of luck in whatever you decide.

    I've often wondered about selling Avon too. Hope it works out well for you, Lucie. I'm sure you'll enjoy it.

    Take care,

    Well, I am an official Avon lady as of this morning 10h30 am!

    Yes, I decided to give it a try! With all the people I know in my area and plus my family, I think it might work. So far I have given 3 catalogues to my friend neighbours and they were all very excited to know I would be selling Avon.

    I also asked my paper route boss and she said I can put one in the mailboxes of those I deliver the news paper tomorrow. So that's great, since I stop by 91 houses. Hopefully I can find a few new clients--even if it's only 5 ladies, I'll be happy.

    Monday I'm going to my first meeting. They have one every 6 weeks. I'll tell you more as I learn.

    Oh! and I'm excited about it! They have so many good specials in their brochures this summer! I hope people will like it.

    Well, thanks for your encouragements, dear friends.

    Your friendly frugal new Avon lady.
