This Anniversary card came in the mail this week. 20 years as an "Avon Lady". Hard to believe it has been 20 years. Avon was a household name while I was growing up. Mama used their products, for as long as I can remember. It was a special treat every two weeks to wait and watch for her Avon lady come to the house with her little books that were filled with page after page of stuff that us girls love! And she always had a handful of samples to leave with us to try until the next order rolled around. Samples of lipstick, perfumes, bath gels, eye make-up, etc... The stuff that little girls love to play with pretending they are big girls! Remembering those visits brings back good memories.
I followed suit after I became the lady of the house and would always find an Avon lady in every town we moved to...until 20 years ago when one day, Steven said, "You are such a good Avon customer...why don't you just sell it yourself?" Seemed like a great idea...and it was. It has been a great 20 years. I am not actively selling at this point. But I continue to order for myself and family. The products are wonderful and the prices are great. The company has been around for over 100 years...so obviously they are doing something right!
