I'm not afraid of the big bad Wolf, said Betty, as she started out with her basket on her arm, but when she entered the forest and saw the eyes of the Wolf gleaming at her behind a tree, she was sorry Popeye was not with her. The Wolf followed Betty step by step getting closer and closer and behind him came Popeye. Just as the Wolf was about to spring on Betty, Popeye felled him with his trusty club and saved Betty's life.

The hostess let them in and told them to make themselves right at home. They were surprised at how many new items were available for the New Year-there was the right gift at the right price for every occasion. The consultant left nothing to the imagination as she explained all of the uses of each piece. Mrs. Rightmyer fell in love with the YOUR PRODUCT HERE that was on special for ____________. She wanted two sets one for her and one for Mrs. Leftmore's birthday that was coming up.
As Mrs. Rightmyer listened to the hostess program, she realized that she could get both sets YOUR PRODUCT HERE for free, if she hosted a YOUR COMPANY NAME Party right in her own home. Both ladies had fun playing the Right and Left Game, but Mrs. Leftmore was impressed at how much fun the consultant was having! The consultant had shared lots of information about the income opportunity. Now Mrs. Leftmore was starting to wonder if this could be right for her . . .it had been a long time since she and Mr. Leftmore had left for vacation and here was an opportunity to earn one free! Her hours could be based right around her family. What harm could it do to ask for information? She was pleased to hear she could attend a Sales Rally right away and was more than welcome to bring Mrs. Rightmyer.
Well, the party was over and it was time to go home, but both knew they had made the right decision to attend.
