Nope, Nada, Not here, Never......have I covered all the bases? In the late 80's I used to host my own stamp parties with Stampendeous and Hero Arts. Had a great time. Only did it to fund my own hobby. Have no desire to do it again. It's much more fun to do what I want and not have to answer minimums or an upline. Plus, buy from whatever company I want and not feel guilty. SU is great but so are tons of other companies. I like to purchase what I like!!

Count me in...or is that out?
I am not a demo. I've been reading up about it, though. While sometimes I think I could easily make my own minimums with the amount of stuff I buy, I am kind of sick of the whole idea of direct selling after a year and a half with Discovery Toys.
Thanks for starting this thread, MamaKimberly. There are so many fantastic stampers who aren't demos, so I feel like I'm among good company!

I don't really stamp much. I'm just here for the company.
Not a demo, though some people think I should be. I know three demos (my primary and two others), though, and there's already a bit of overlap. Way too many toes to step on there!

Anyways, I keep telling him how much $ we would save if I was a rep. (Ha Ha!)
My husband too!!!!!!! Could we be married to the same man or just twins seperated at birth?!?!?!?!?

I don't know does your DH get home from work and sit on the couch while you run around with your head cut off from chasing after your 3 kids too? If so, then maybe!

OMG....I agree with Katymom...not only are you two twins...but you have another sister out there! We are triplets! And my husband says the same exact thing day after day after day (and I just went to a Pampered Chef party last night!)

Not yet but I'm seriously considering. My demo (and friend) has been kinda trying to talk me into becoming one. She said she would even give me her customers that live near me (and we all stamp together anyway). I'm just waiting until I get my twin sons through college and have some extra $ and time to really devote to it.

I'm a buyer, not a seller!! I would only consider selling under very drastic circumstances (like there is no other demo in a 100 mile radius of where I live!)
Not a demo, but a PC consultant. My dh thinks direct sales is weird, too, but lets me do it. My dad says about my friends & me in direct sales, "Why don't you just give each other money?" He also affectionately calls PC "Amway". He was in the sales business (moving) then management of moving companies---sales based, but THAT was different! LOL!
I'm not a demo, but my DD is. She's been a SU demo for 5 years (she's very excited about convention this year). I'm in her Stampers' Club and go to all her class and events. I think she's a great demo and I would rather be her best customer then become a demo myself.
I am not a demo. It would be difficult because of my husbands career, so I am just a great customer for someone else wherever we live! I can only invite certain people to a party I host as well ... so that gets tough too.
However I usually get invited to every single pampered chef party, etc. as a commanders spouse.
