Though it sounds like Yawn is ordering specifically what someone asks for. Mind you she could have so much stock that it doesn't matter what they ask for, she can fulfill the order, EVEN if someone wants a bottle of gentleman's Pride! I think she'd want to make a bit of profit on the back bedroom stock. It does appear to be about the cc's 🤷🏻‍♀️

I think she’s shifting old stock. If she’s planning to leave FL (and doesn’t want anyone to know) telling lies about ordering stock is the easy option.

Sugarplum48 · 07/11/2024 22:33

On her one woo post she's offering freebies, I.e old stock

YouOKHun · 07/11/2024 23:20

Her Booker Prize Winner has dropped to number 4 and even further down on another criteria. I guess the flurry of purchases from bots eager to please Yawn has now dried up.

Yawn has her first review.

OP posts:
SnoogyWoo · 08/11/2024 04:14

2 reviews…

meltdowns incoming 🤣

PieonaBarm · 08/11/2024 05:52

She obviously has a down line in FLP, perhaps she's selling at cost to hit the CCs she needs to get the down line payment, as I would think she has to be active and achieve certain CCs to get that payment.

definitelynotabot · 08/11/2024 06:03

Selling at cost is an absolute no, discounting was always against the rules, I assume it still is. Wonder if head office know?

Oh dear, I think you're right!

So where are the glowing reviews from the adoring, eager to please (Un)Lucky Girls?

Norma27 · 08/11/2024 07:00

Well Yawn didn’t manifest those reviews did she? 😂

I bet they will all be told to post one today!!!

SnoogyWoo · 08/11/2024 07:47

Wouldn’t want to be Mr Yawn this morning

TwinklyMoose · 08/11/2024 08:20

Here for the reviews! It’s not even like she can delete or block them! I think the bit that said it was good for writing the shopping list on is my favourite

SnoogyWoo · 08/11/2024 08:28

Quite a few people have clicked on the bit that says have you found this review helpful, will be hard to report.

HouseofHolbein · 08/11/2024 09:28

I've just clicked that I found the reviews helpful 😊

Spongebobette · 08/11/2024 10:02

Well they ARE helpful!

if they stop one person from wasting 15 quid!

thetemptationofchocolate · 08/11/2024 10:39

I'm surprised the bots who've bought it haven't put up a few glowing reviews. Maybe there aren't that many who have it after all? Or, maybe they have reviewed it, as the names on reviews don't have to be your real name so they could say what they really think!

Spongebobette · 08/11/2024 10:53

Dear Speccy ….just so you know
I can assure you that teachers will not be thrilled to receive Forever Living rubbish as a gift.

YouOKHun · 08/11/2024 12:03

@thetemptationofchocolate I wondered if she bought a job lot to boost it and is then selling it to her bots at a tiny discount or asking them to order through her then she places the Amazon order?

I'm just thinking about how I might tackle it if I wanted to keep the bots away from all the many other similar and cheaper journals with the same name on Amazon and also keep them away from the lack of reviews or possible negative reviews I knew would be coming my way. Perhaps she'd rather have no reviews than risk even a meh review. She is in difficult territory now; she can't just delete what she doesn't like and doesn't want others to see.

DeliaDeetz · 08/11/2024 13:49

Those reviews are classic! Yawn will be fuming! 😂

Spongebobette · 08/11/2024 15:07

The desperation is palpable

pulling in all her minions to big her up and pretending they are actual business owners

ShrinkingViolent · 08/11/2024 15:07

There's a third review now Grin

AbbeyGrange · 08/11/2024 15:36

oh my god, she'll be livid, they are terrible reviews.

ShrinkingViolent · 08/11/2024 15:38

Looking at the Amazon page, she's not going to get any sales from non-bots. There are no images of the inside of the journal at all, just the cover. (And you famously can't judge a book by that!). If I was buying a journal I would want to see the layout and headings. Her success in FL (when she had success) was definitely not down to her business sense.

Oh dear, just found it on Amazon. Three scathing reviews. Ouch! Shock Truth hurts. She hs put a photograph up posing with a woman who she's known ten years, so since 2014, and is a friend. This friend surely knows the truth about Yawns claims of being a six or seven figure earner?
