Emma mentioned that she would like to open a shop.
I wondered where that came from as she enjoys where she works and the people she works for, but i thought i would listen.
Anyway off she started on here new venture of talking over this business and she says that she has experience too.
I fell for that one boys.
And the answer was a few words long .

A Filipina came to our house a few days ago selling 'Saladmaster' cooking utensils the smallest pan was £600 and for the whole set you are looking at £9000 it's all made from Titanium, the lady was self employed been doing it for a number of years and very successful. She is looking for Filipina's to train and training is all free plus one can earn whilst training, after reading between the lines it's not for everyone and it's very time consuming also very hard work and lot's to learn along the way. Must say though, she is very good at her job:wink:

Steve, if I was still working I may have bought a couple of items, but the trainee who came with the lady her husband bought over £4000 worth for her and it's someone my wife knows. Whilst this demo took place the lady did a test on four of our pans that we have and out of the four the stainless had the least contamination and the worst was alloy and we put the alloy, cast iron and none stick in the bin the contaminates smelled disgusting, so now we'll stick with the stainless that we have. With the titanium that was demonstrated no water or fat was used in the cooking process and you can cook anything using these utensils, you can even do boiled egg without water I was amazed and food tasted better, the bonus was free meals for six of us:xxgrinning--00xx3:

Amazing AMAZING,
Do i buy a new set of pans or a new car.
Do i buy a new set of pans or half a house over in the Philippines.
We all would like to do our best for our wives, a new bag here and there, shoes too.
But saucepans that's a new one on me.
End of the day they are sales persons they will try to tell the world these are the best things since sliced bread.

I'm not the perfect customer for any sales person, in fact I'm very difficult to sell to I only buy what I need when I need it, never been influenced by any sales person or any adverts, I find out myself if anything is worth having do my research first by touching, feeling and asking questions preferabley from someone who has the item I'm wanting:Erm:

That's the best way to buy things these days.
To many people are influenced by what others have and what they think they may want to keep up with other folk.
By the way how is that expensive camera you brought but don't seem to know how it works.

We have quite a few of these parties Michael, lots of great food and great company too, the only thing missing is the hard sales at our party, plus we use our own pots and pans to cook with,
I do hope i have not poisoned anyone with our pans.:doh

Not used it really, I rather prefer a video camera. Maritess uses the camera I never see it. By the way has the procedure for putting Avatars on the Forum changed? because the person who normally does it for me can't seem to do it after many attempts he says something has changed so I've no Avatar now, he has emailed Keith but no reply yet:Erm:

Saladmaster - such a scam. Some Filipino friends tried to sell them to us ... amazingly I bit my tongue and they got the hint. What a rip off.

I have a tiny titanium implant in my ear replacing one of the tiny bones. Doesn't set off metal detectors at airports luckily.

Do you think these salad masters use old Titanium arms and legs for there handles, now that would look great.

Many years ago i was approach by a family member to go into this selling thing, the best thing since sliced bread.
And after a few meetings i realised once you have sold to your own family and then your friends there was no one else to sell too.
You did not make any money for yourself but only for people at the top of the tree.
Amway way the name, and i am sure many have heard of it and i am convinced some one has not.
But on the other hand I know someone who sells Avon and makes a futune,

Breaking news "Emma has been to one of these parties".
Yes we was talking about these pans and she told me she has been to a party where people tried to sell these.
You could have a buy now and pay on installments and one person did just that £40 a month for a year for 1 pan.
I had to ask why do people buy these and why is it mainly women at a Filipino party the answer, "its a brand name".:NoNo:
