NO JOKE Zulily Rocks with Credits to Shop for Free

I joined the Zulily Fan Club over 5 years ago!

Best Decision I have made!

Time for a GIVEAWAY!
if you like WINNING your in the right place.  Scroll through this Blog post for the Prizes and HOW to enter to win!  
5 WINNERS!

I have had the privilege to watch them grow as my new business grew.

You assume these referral programs are scams but this one is not. 

In fact over the 5 years I have personally earned Roughly $4500.00 in credits 

that I have spent on Lots of Stylish Clothes for my girls and self.

They have an awesome Selection of Plus Size clothing at awesome prices.  I'm not even joking.  I hate clothes shopping because usually everything in a 2x or 3x looks like it came from a Hawaiian Grandma's Closet.  I actually get compliments on the tops I have gotten.  You can get Trendy flattering looks at great prices and if you have earned CREDITS you could get clothes FREE!   Here are some of the great PLUS SIZE items I have bought!

Most of my daughters shoes have come from Zulily.

I have religiously kept their foot measurements on hand and used the size charts on each pair to ensure we get a good fit.  Only a few times they have not fit and most times they were big which meant they could wear later as they grow.

The Absolute Find of the Year-  Three Little Pigs Dress (Her all time favorite)

Sydney is quite known for her High Heels in Kindergarten thru 2nd grade.

Those Heels are famous!  And I got them FREE from Zulily

You can see every person (or their email) that signs up with your link.  The Credit goes into your account as soon as their first order SHIPS!   Sometimes shipping is 2 to 3 weeks but well worth it.
I live in a Small town in Western Kentucky.  We have no big name brand stores like Macy's, Target, etc so finding clothes that are unique and affordable is impossible here unless you shop online.
Sometime the prices are not necessarily a good deal - BUT if you have credits and its something you need GREAT!
I simply google the item to see what it usually goes for to compare prices.
Many times they have Designer Name Brands like Jessica Simpson, Andrew Marc, Etienne Aigner and many more.
We LOVE Jelly The Pug

When looking into your Invites and Credits section you can See those who signed up-  It will give you the option to
NUDGE once a week to remind them about Zulily by email.  

Those who haven't responded you can send a reminder.

It will also show you those who have purchased so you know when the order ships your credit will be yours to spend.

The site has grown and added so much.  You can shop new items literally everyday.
Another great reason I LOVE TO SHOP ZULILY is their A+ customer service.
If it takes excessively too long to get to you- Contact them
If it doesn't fit- Contact them
If it is broken- Contact them
If you get the wrong item- Contact them
Most times they will work to fix or credit you- BUT PLEASE don't take advantage.
Only use this option when necessary.  Nice Companies get abused by Freebie Hogs and the rest of us pay.
Here are some great photos of just some of the SHOES, OUTFITS, TOYS, COATS, etc   my girls have enjoyed over the years thanks to Zulily Credits!
Now SIGN UP so you can start referring and earning-  There is no limit!
Don't have children?  They have awesome Home Decor, Kitchen items, Men's items, and so much more!

I Think Lulabelle's Sweet Gifts has the perfect holiday gift for kids!  Something they can use for a long time.  Get it in a variety of fabrics to match their personality or with their favorite character.  They sell for about $7.50 on her page which is a STEAL.  It has  spot for all your crayons to roll up and take anywhere.  She also makes a tote version where you can carry their favorite coloring book with the crayons.  It has a handle so is great to just head out the door with.

I hope you will visit Lulabelle's Sweet Gifts soon  http://www.facebook.com/lulabellesgifts and let them know CMRU sent you there.
