[blparent] Discovery Toys Descriptions and information

[Brandy W]

I know there are several consultants on the list as they are on my team. Please order from whoever you would normally order from, but I wanted the list to have the information.

 

Hi, I’ve included the product descriptions for the winter sale. The first list of toys is on sale from now through Jan 31, but the second set of toys is only on sale this week and does not continue into January. If you have any questions about anything including how to be a consultant or earning free toys please let me know. I also ask that if you choose to order on my site to please let me know as my site seems to be having some problems. They aren’t problems that affect you or your ordering, but me getting the credit for the sale. While we are fixing the problem it helps me to know when people order. Thanks!
