I'm going to talk about friends selling stuff again
If your friends sell any of the crap that you have to throw or attend parties for, do you attend or host a party just because they are your friends? My friend started doing this vacation deal where she throws parties to try to sell it. She's the type that would feel like her friends have an obligation to attend just because she's doing it. I know she would attend or throw a party for me if I were selling, but I don't do that sh!t because I don't want to put myself or anyone else in an ackward position.
Re: I'm going to talk about friends selling stuff again
I've had various friends ask me to, but I just say no. Sometimes they are annoyed by my refusal, but eff it. Those parties suck.
The only party I will attend is Tastefully Simple because I love some of that stuff and there's free food.
No, I haven't. I have attended parties and bought some stuff, mostly just Scentsy, because I love it, some godawful jewelry that I'll never buy again and some Mary Kay, which I won't be buying again.
If it were a really close friend and I liked the product, I would probably host a party. But I'm at the point now that if it's something I no longer use or aren't interested in, forget it. I'm done with that crap.
You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say will be misquoted and used against you. My Blog
I hosted one, one time. Arbonne. That is the only stuff I ever bought, because I got such a good discount.
I am just not into it. My only friends/family members who sell stuff are SAHMs and I just tell them I don't have the time and they are understanding. I don't, and this gets me off the hook.
No, because that shiit is annoying. I've unfriended several people who push their Lia Sophia/Pampered Chef/uglyass 31 bags crapola.
I'd rather hurt feelings than hurt my wallet.
but I'm also a totalbitch, so there's that.
I got a text from my little sister and she told me she's having a PR party at her house coincidentally the same Saturday I'm going to be visting my mom. I suspect the timing is not a coincidence. I suspect she wants to me to go even though she didn't ask me to in her text.
There's no way I'm going to that party. I don't care if she tells me that it'll be fun--I ain't a'goin'.
Forget-Me-Nots: Alaska State Flower
I've been to one Pure Romance party. It was years ago and I was still holding onto my V-card so I was the innocent doe-eyed girl in a room full of much more experienced college women who were drunk after tailgating all day. It was NOT fun. I felt guilted into buying something so I got some lame-o massage oil that smelled g-r-o-s-s and it sat in my bathroom cabinet until I finally threw it away.
