Vicki, first you need to figure out what you are addicted to? If all you want is a discount on books, go to Amazon.com and buy them used....better yet, go to the library and read for FREE.
MLMs have more than discounts to offer. You know, I totally understand where you are coming from. As a former Sr. Sales Director with Mary Kay, Im SO glad to be Out. Last night I was invited to preview a recruiting Power Point for another MLM. These people are friends, and I just wanted to help them out. Their praise and recognition was wonderful and really made me feel good.....next step, become a part of their group and get more of it....WRONG.
Dont get sucked back in unless its exactly what you want.

lvoe this group. Anytime I feel emotionally compelled to fall back
into my MLM addiction, I come here and read posts. I've tried many
MLMs over and over and they have all turned out the same.
Here's my latest...
There's a Usborne books girl on one of my other groups. She's always
sending out messages about joining Usborne Books. I am often tempted
for these "reasons". 1. I now have a son and I think reading books
is very important. 2. I'd love to have a "resource" for getting
great kid's books at discount prices. 3. I'd love to have a
dedicated "fundraiser" for his education. 4. I like the idea of
sharing the love of reading with others.
But then I say...
1. It's an MLM. 2. If I want books, I can go to the bookstore,
join a Scholastic book club, go to the library, etc. 3. I opened a
Upromise account for his college education which will earn me money
without extra effort or buying "business supplies". I already have
$60 in his Upromise account and he's 11 weeks old. 4. If I lose $
in the MLM, I'd actully be taking money away from him... sort of.
So then instead of responding to her message, I just delete it from
my inbox...
Yippee for MLM addicts anonymous!!! (AKA this group)
