I wanted to write about the wonderful experience I had with my Pampered Chef shower this weekend. After reading some of the past posts on the WW forum which were negative - I was hesitant on what this shower might entail.
The shower was amazing and fun! I didn't have to worry about any shower games that would be embarrassing. The Pampered Chef rep was very personable and when she talked about the items in the catalog she made sure to reference things I had picked out or wanted. The rep and myself made the Clubhouse Chicken Squares (amazing!)... My cousin and aunt had a table setup at the front/guestbook area with the items that were on my registry and people could pick up the cutout of the item they wanted to buy - write their name on the back, put it in a gift bag and I got to read/announce the gifts that we received at the end of the shower and thank each person in person. (Your shower hosts need to organize the gift opening part - that's not part of the PC's normal shower experience)
By doing the food/product demo - I got to try out some of them PC items that we hadn't registered for but fell in love with. I know every month Pampered Chef has different promotions.. but I wanted to share that I had qualified to receive $480 in free product and five items at 50% off... We got 15 items that are free and we we are going to be buying the pot and pan set that sells for $450 for $225. 
The experience was also very easy for anyone that couldn't attend the shower, they were able to buy things online before the shower and earmark them as their gifts.
