Love Mondays...How fortunate am I! Not only do I have an amazing home based business but it ticks all the boxes in terms of friends in abundance, a pension for life and a brilliant lifestyle... doesn't come without some hard work, but its a joy to wake up in the mornings and get to work....

thanks ladies for the welcome. If I want to advertise I would go the right way about it and pay for an advert. I am a Nana of 11, and thought I would share that I still enjoy working as it keeps my mind active. Not all sales people are horrible, yes I agree there are some out there trying to scam and its wise to keep your wits about you, but to just attack is not very nice. (I do not do Avon but for those people who do I am sure they are only doing a job and offering a service like most direct sales companies. Surely with jobs so hard to come by these days earning this way is a good thing.

Nothing wrong with Avon - I did it when we first moved here and the mortgage rate went through the roof. But the mark ups were criminal in order for me to get my share, my area manager hers and so on. Being me of course, I was my own best customer!!
So what do you do orijen?
