It takes forever, doesn't it? Mine is currently showing 72,197...can't wait for it to show the 74,197!
 
  • #456
Yes I wish the trackers would be more updated. My consultant # 4 that needed to qaulify for me to earn Miami just submitted show #4. Then it went on hold for declined card. I really think it is all trying to haunt me. She resolved it,so I hope tomorrow it all updates and finally I will see Level 2 highlighted in the trip and know that I'm finally officially going to Miami Beach.
 
  • #457
I am getting impatient with the tracker too! Update already! Geez...you'd think it was a busy time of year for HO or something....oh wait. LOL.
 
  • #458
I DID IT!!! I'm SOOOO excited! Miami Beach here I come :) :) Just submitted the show that put me over the top. I can't wait for my box to change colors to know it's official!!! Thanks for all of the encouragement and support!!!

I really think this is trying to haunt me.
I needed my 4th recruit to qaulify to get Miami Beach.
She submitted show #4 on Monday and then it was on hold. It is now off hold and she says it even shipped. The IPT shows that she has a 4th in, doesn't reflect in her sales still. Then I get the email that shows she qaulified and STILL my IPT and trip tracker won't update that I earned the trip and that she is qualified.
It is driving me nuts. I just want to see that it is highlighted and she shows qualified.

Ugh this is what I was going through. Try pressing Ctrl+F5 while on your tracker. That way if they just updated it, your cookies update and show the changes. I have to do that at work all the time because the cookies save my tracker from a week ago and don't show me any updates!

well I'm down to needing $830 for Mexico, sending out an email today to my customer base, I never get much when I send out to them, so we'll see what happens....


Awesome job everyone for making it!!

Best of luck with your email. You sure someone doesn't need cookware?? :D
 
  • #471
I checked again today and my trackers are still not updated. Is anyone else having this problem?
 
  • #472
You can do it LORI!!!

Melissa, mine took 2 days to highlight. Freaked me out. Same with Becky.
 
  • #473
Well, I have officially earned Miami.
I have well more than enough points for Mexico/Paris but not the recruits.
I am truly happy with Miami, though. I hate being far away from my children and Miami is only an hour away -- which also means I get the travel credit!
 
  • #474
I can't wait to meet you in person Carolyn! I feel like I've known you for years :D

I'm taking the travel credit too! I've got tons of family and friends all over the state so we are making a full week out of it - and it's DS's spring break so I won't have to pull him out of school.

Whew! First time I've had internet access in a week (my computer screen hasn't been working...I think Santa is bringing me a new laptop).

Anyhoo, Miami is official. :) Congrats to everyone who has earned their trip and 'go,go,go" to those who are almost there (ahem, Lori, that includes you, compadre)!

Becky, if you want to chat about Paris at all let me know. While living in Germany, France was a favorite destination. Would love to share some special destinations if you want them. :)

Can't wait to meet you Carolyn...and I love the trip credit too!
 
  • #476
Linda, we are going to take the travel credit as well. My MIL is about 2 hours north of Miami, so our first stop will be there. We're taking DS along, but he is staying at Grandma's while we party in Miami. :)Then we'll stay at MIL's for a day or two to see all the family before we head back home. We're all excited. I'll be glad to finally meet you Carolyn!

Ok so this morning my IPT tracker shows that I signed and qualified 4 this year. Her tracker shows she qualified. Now for the TRIP tracker to highlight. It is going on a week already. I know I earned Miami, but want to see it highlighted and will feel better and official.:blushing:

If you have room for one more at lunch, let me know. Vero used to be a stompin' ground for me! Would love to meet you!

Actually, I don't think I'll be able to make it, I need to spend a day or so with my dad in West Palm Beach. Ya'll can pretend I'm there though :)

Shut your mouth!!!

There is no chance...I repeat, NO CHANCE of that!

After baby #4 I got fixed, before baby #4 (about 2 months before) my husband got fixed. God would have to be just plain mean. And I know He's not!

Okay, you sound like me!! I have 3 and got fixed 12 hours after I had my daughter! I told the dr to remove them and stomp, burn cut anything no more babies for me. I don't know how the duggars do it! Good for them though!

What else is there to do that's fun? I will be in Miami for one night on Saturday where is the one place you HAVE to eat while there?
 
  • #497
I think I'm ready to give up on the trip. I need about 10,000 points and can't get ahold of the three new consultants I have (who have passed their 30 days) to see if they will qualify. I can't sell that much in 10 days (please don't encourage me, I don't want to stress about it) but I'm still working on getting sales as if they were going to qualify. We'll see.
 
  • #498
update... well down to needing $362, didn't get many that responded to my email, but those that did respond all placed orders over $100 each, so it's like the saying goes, it ain't over till the fat lady sings, I can finally see Mexico, weeee! Seeing a bunch of family over the next couple of days, certainly they must need some Pampered Chef!!
 
  • #499
Did your email tell them how far away you were? Are there any good customers you have or past hosts that you could call after Christmas?
 
  • #500
Yeah, when I emailed I said I was about 800 away, and told them that even small orders would make a difference. I offered free shipping. I told them they had till Saturday, so... keeping my fingers crossed =)
