Week 15 – Host a Party:  Annual Savings $120

We’ve all been to them, and many of you have probably hosted them; independent sales parties.  Independent sales parties are run by consultants of a large company that come into your home or office and sell their product.  The most commonly known ones include Mary Kay, Tupperware and Party Lite.  I personally, have never hosted a party until this year.  My sister recently became a consultant for Thirty-One, which is a company that sells bag, totes and other items that can be monogrammed/ personalized.  There are many benefits of hosting a party, including free hostess gifts, a percentage of your purchases and merchandise credits for purchases.  So, I hosted a party for a few friends and purchased merchandise totaling $183, but only owed $63.  Yes, I saved a total of $120 and was able to get some great stuff for myself, and also as gifts.  And to top it all off, I had a great evening with my girlfriends shopping!

We also carpooled this week.
