If I had a hundred dollars.....

Have I told you lately how much I love The Body Shop?
This company is so awesome, they give us consultants so much, and they still think that they haven't done enough for us.
Case in point: the 6 month 2-4-8 challenge.
If we as consultants averaged $700, $1400, or $2800 in sales over the past 6 months, they promised us $100, $250, or $500 in FREE new products.
Yours truly averaged $700 (actually, it was closer to $1100, but there was no $1100 level)
So, after much waiting, and anticipating and salivating (it's free stuff, I get a little excited), the Body Shop gave us some good and bad news. We would get to PICK which free products we wanted, BUT it would be from a list of old products, many of which are not in this catalog.
I was upset, I was dissapointed, and yet, I could empathize.
It seems that The Body Shop has been having some supplier issues, and in order to be able to have enough products for us to sell, they had to offer us "old" products. So, totally not their fault, I was annoyed, but things happen. I am not one to take free stuff for granted. I'm happy for any product for free, old or new.
However, the Body Shop, in their continued efforts to do as much as they can for us consultants, came out with an additional list of free products to chose from!
They scrounged, but they came up with some awesome products for us to chose from. They offered us some awesome business tools, as well as some new products from the SUMMER catalog! Very exciting! I can't wait to smell "aqua lily", it's one of the new for summer products that I am getting for free!
I love the Body Shop, even when they mess up it's still all good!
