The offer, at least in Hampshire, is 3*3mt conservatory - max 5 blinds blossom £349 + £65/extra blind symphony £399 + £75/extra blind florence £449 + £85/extra blind 3*4mt conservatory - max 5 blinds blossom £449 + £65/extra blind symphony £499 + £75/extra blind florence £549 + £85/extra blind It took me several attempts to get a copy of this from H/O. Originally it was only 25th April to 30th June 05, then extended to Sep, then Dec, now - who knows? Sound familiar? GVM all the leaflets in midlands offer 5 blinds in conservatory 3*3m in Blossom only, for £349 and 4*4m conny 5 blinds for £449 Blossom only, plus extra blinds at £69 each. No mention of any other fabric. This needs a response from H/O to clear things up. ;D

Leaflet does just say blossom, but the other options allow you to sell up. As I think I said, it took a while, but I eventually got this faxed through from the help desk, they had trouble finding it. GVM Have a look in the small print of A4 leaflet, does it just say Blossom in your area. Regards owl.

I've been doing it since the offer came out..... don't tell anyone though!

Has anyone else received an email about the error on the 129 for £4 offer leaflet?
It relates to the fact that it should not have gone out until June 4th'ish. This was to be with the 'Trinity' fabric I think!!
The email says that we shouldn't worry as we can 'up sell' to the 50% off fabrics with confidence!!!!!!
OH! REALLY!!!!! ....Hmmm!..... From £129 to say £380? ..... YEAH!... NO PROBLEM!!!!!!!

From £129 to say £380? ..... YEAH!... NO PROBLEM!!!!!!! I've had an email, but saying Dear Advisor,
There has been an error in one of our Royal Mail leaflets, which advertises a 4 for £129 deal which is not available to your customers.
If your customer asks you about this promotion, please take this opportunity to up sell to one of our half price blinds in the Spring Promotion. However, if your customer is only interested in this offer, then as a last resort, please offer them Clouds at 4 for £129.
From 5 June, you will be able to offer your customers a fantastic deal of 4 blinds for the price of 3 and you will receive the fabrics for this promotion towards the end of next week.It's going to be such a fantastic deal, I weeing myself with excitement .......... And as for the 4 blinds for the price of 3 - even that's cr@p! It's not 4 for the price of 3 - it's 4 for the current sale price of 3! Four blinds at list price, cheapest 1 free would be better.

I see from today's mailer that willow chalk is sold out. I can't believe anybody put these in their sample swatch. And don't forget if it's a kitchen/diner it's not a kitchen nor a dining room it's an other. You couldn't make it up!!!!!

Funnily enough no customers have asked for 4 for £129 they all seem to think it's still 3 for£99. Not sold any in the last couple of weeks - result.

According to the "SPECIAL OFFERS" sheet, and leaflets already released, are we not meant to be starting the offers with the TRINITY fabric from Monday? I have heard or received nothing from Hillarys about it and all other mailers with recent offers say "must end on June 4th." Anybody out there received theirs? Or know anymore?

Talking of large envelopes & Jiffy bags!!!! Did you know that in September the Post Office are to change the cost for postage? It is based on the size of the envelope. e.g. An A4 envelope is currently the standard 1st class of 0.32p. As of September the cost is significantly higher! Around 0.74p I think!!! So the question is ... how are Hillarys going to manage? Are they going to charge us £40 a month that would be deducted from our commission to pay for all the useless Monthly Reports, Crap & Spin that they currently send us? ?
