A Mom's Drive-thru Adventure: Car Magnets Lead to a Sale

[SusanBP0129]

My 2 yr old (Alexander) fell asleep in the car after I picked up my 4 ½ yr old (Nicholas) from camp.

Of course, Nicholas was hungry. Fine. We went to the Wendy’s drive-thru. I was RAVENOUS, but I just started doing Weight Watchers again so I ordered a small chili. Of course I can’t drive and eat chili, so I pulled into a spot.

While eating my chili, a man knocked on my window. He wanted a catalog. (saw my magnet on the car door) I ALWAYS carry catalogs, but of course, this time I didn’t have one. No problem really – gave me an excuse to get his contact info. He lives in the same town. Then we chat a bit & he asks me about the business. I answered a bunch of his questions and he’s just about sold! So…..I invited him to our cluster meeting on Monday!

I almost threw up. LOL
Car magnets work!
That’s my story.

I want the magnet but gosh it is expensive! I have just the merrill vinyl logo and have never gotten a thing from that. Does the magnet really work?

CONGRATS on the lead - thats awesome!

That's great! I have been toying with the idea of a magnet or decal on the window. You talked me into it!

Awesome!! You must be on cloud nine!!!:angel:

I got the logo but I have to clean out my car and wash it before I put it up.I'll have to really re-think the magnets after this story!I don't like the idea that you're supposed to remove 'em and wash under 'em every day.

So SAD!:cry: no magnets for me! I have a Saturn Vue - so the magnets don't work on my car!

Congrats to you though! Good job!

What caught my eye one day at Cracker Barrel was this huge vinyl on the rear window of an oversized SUV. Ended up being a waitress who does it on the side. But my my it caught my eye. But, I have to say, it got me to go home look up the closest recruiter who happened to be my son's class mother last year and here I am! I've been thinking about joining for 2 years!
