Just Curious.

I'm invited to yet ANOTHER Tupperware party - and I'm wondering how I can go w/o feeling like a shmooze for not buying anything....

I voted #1 too...if I go, I always buy something. BUT, if I really don't want to buy anything then I just don't go. LOL And yet there of plenty of times I DO want to buy something and can't go, so then I have to order after the fact.

I go and I always feel obligated to purchase. Sometimes if I know I don't really need something I look for the cheapest thing in the brochure but sometimes, I overindulge and purchase a lot of stuff. LOL. I even get suckered into catalog parties and always have to buy so I tend to do a lot of catalog shows, too, so that way people buy from me. It's gotta' work both ways.

I picked: yes, and I do always buy SOMETHING, even when I don't need the stuff.

But by the same token if I really don't want anything and have no use for whatever the in home party is I don't go.

I'm so glad that I"m not alone!!!

Rachel- DOESN'T THAT SUCK!! That's happened to me too, catalog parties for Partylite!! Jeez!!

I always am getting things that I JUST DON'T NEED.

It was funny, today when we were at Walmart, I found what Tupperware USED to sell, the square toddler plates (2 for .97) and the round bowls they used to sell (4 for .98)!! TOO COOL!!

And, to top that off- I DECLINED the Tupperware party at the end of the month... *evil laugh*
