Nothing much to report but felt like writing anyway!

Good evening all! I am at the end of a long day of processing orders...order coma.. and felt like I needed a break. How is everyone? I am good....I have been sneezing all day and I cannot smell a thing. Who knows what you will get in your orders! :o)

Order Error
I did make a huge mistake on a customers order and I felt so bad. Her perfume was not labeled and her samples were labeled but not scented! Oh the horror! And..I did not even put her invoice in the box. I emailed her immediately and refunded her entire amount plus shipping. I even chased the damn mailman down the road to try and retrieve the box back so I could fix it but it was too late. He kept right on driving by even though I was waving my arms like a crazy person. Drats :b..I hate it when I do that. The customer was very nice about it. It is nice to know I have such understanding customers.

Fragrance Oils
I got a few great oils yesterday. I had to restock a few and got a few samples to test and there was not a dud in the bunch! I can't wait to put them up on the website. For now I am trying to get caught up.

New Product
I have a new product to launch. The containers will be here on the 13th of the month but for now I need a few good testers. If you are interested please email me at thebodydessertshop@cox.net I need honest critical opinions, no sugar coating! I will repay you for your valued opinion, for being discreet, and for being a guinea pig with a free product which will be determined at a later date. :o)

Newsletters
Is anyone reading these? People!! I gave away a free product last month for orders $25 and over and many people did not redeem the coupon!!! FREE PRODUCT! I thought people like free stuff. I can't believe it. What is the old saying? "Cheap is good but free is better" Yeah...that is what I thought...:b

La Mer
I won an Ebay auction for my Mom so she can try it. She is curious. I am anxious to see how she does with it because she has the driest skin in the universe. My skin has improved (zit almost gone) and I am back to using the La Mer every other night. I hope I don't break out again. I really like the cream. I may have to splurge. My skin has honestly never looked better. Too bad this cream wasn't only $10.00.

Pet Peeves of Mine

People who pick their noses in their cars and think no one can see them! I have a news flash for all you nose pickers...I CAN see you and you are beyond gross. STOP IT NOW.

Men that stare/gawk at women while they are walking at the mall or on the street and then they bump into me while they are doing this!

People who ask me if my boy and girl twins are identical!

People who ride the break on the freeway and no one is in front of them...what IS this?

Ordering from a fragrance oil company, all excited, having high hopes for everything and then they are all duds! Yes, it happens to etailers all the time. I have a whole shelf dedicated to such duds.

I have lots more but that is it for now. Do you have any? LOL...Please feel free to post yours if you wish.

Until next time! :o)

Ooh, I for one love your newsletter specials. But I don't think I met the minimum to qualify for the free product last month.

I know what you mean about the LaMer. I had a sample and was hoping I would dislike it but I loved it. I had been surfing Ebay for some more but then I forgot all about it.

Here are some of my pet peeves: (lol at your nose picking one, ewww!)
-People who leave their shopping carts next to cars in parking lots. Hate this with a passion!
-People who eat and "smack" while their doing it, noisy eaters. Ick.
-Cashiers who don't say a word to you during a transaction - no hello, goodbye, nothing. :/

Oh Robin! I am so glad...Did you get the Strawberry Jam Puff Pastries? Do tell what it smells like in a tart! :o)

I love free products! I know I forgot on a couple of my orders. I am sure most are like me, read about it and go to order. But you are so into your order that you forget to do the coupon.
Loved the pet peeves! I have read them twice and laughed hard both times! Here are a couple of my many:
Noisy eaters,gum crack and poppers,
Healthy people who wait for an elevator to go to the second floor or drive around and around a big parking lot until they can find a spot 10 feet from the door.I just want to get there!

LOL Peggy...I think I am one of those parking lot circlers...round and round I drive..only if it is cold though and I am alone and at night..does that still count? :o)

Anonymous said...

That type of circling is fine. Saftey first! Hey but what are you talking about cold! Your in Cali! If it is rainy or really cold I might take a trip around but I normally pull into the most available spots. Keeps my car away from those carts Christina mentioned lol. And I actually drive family nuts because I won't wait for an elevator unless I am going above the 3 floor. I just can't handle to stand and wait to get in a box to go up a couple of floors.You can get there faster by stairs imo.
