How to place an online order with Needs A Ribbon FAQ

Stampin' Up! is undergoing a change to their hosting rewards program. At some time in the future you will  earn $5 in rewards for every X amount of which can be used on future orders not your current order. It is a bankable system. More will be presented on that in coming months (Summer 2024). You will still be earning approximately the same amount but it will not be held to needing a minimum of a $150 order. 

Another change that is coming soon is you will need to make an online profile to store your information. As data privacy laws change globally, so must our policy change. Demonstrators will no longer be able to place orders for you. You will need to create an online profile through our ordering system, if you have not done so in the past. Be sure to keep your profile information in a safe space. Follow guidelines for creating a password, I highly recommend creating a unique one for each online profile you have. It is Best Practices, when it come to protecting your data online and cybersecurity. I know it may seem like a good idea to reuse passwords, and keep them simple, but with so many data breaches happening weekly, follow my recommended best practice. My son is in cybersecurity. He knows best. 

Shipping is $7.95 or 11% whichever is greater. There are additional cost options for expedited shipping rates. Fees will be presented when closing out your order. 

We have recently changed how order entry looks online. It is a much larger form with easier to read text. 

1. Current forms of payment for online orders are: Visa, MasterCard and Discover.
2. You can check on the status of your order under My Account area of Online ordering. Typically normal standard shipping orders will arrive 5-7 business days after receipt of your order. During some specials processing may take an extra day or two. You can always email me and I can check on the status of your order too. When you are placing your order there are several expedited shipping options if you just can't wait for your products that long!
3. Your Shopping Bag will expire and empty after 20 minutes of idle time only. Therefore at this time you are not able to start an order, save and come back to it later. Best to make your shopping list ahead of time. 
4. My name and contact information will appear in the upper right corner of your screen - Sandy McManus, 612-280-5590, needsaribbon@gmail.com. Sign in or create an account and start shopping and adding items to your bag.
5. When you are in your Shopping Bag, type in the item code (currently a 6 digit number) and quantity for the item you are ordering. If you do not know the item code you can enter the name in the search bar, or search by category to find it.
6. Double check that you have ordered the correct quantities of items. You do not want to run out of adhesive or paper in the middle of an epic crafting session.
7. Orders starting at $150 in merchandise earn Stampin' Rewards, you can use the rewards to by catalog product or for exclusive Hostess rewards. Yes, only $150 you get to be your own silent hostess. The more you spend the more you are rewarded. You will be prompted with your selection as you check out. 
8. During Sale-A-Bration do not forget to add the item codes for your FREE merchandise for each $50 you spend. See the Sale-A-Bration brochure under my Catalogs tab for more information and item codes. You will be prompted as you start to check out for those item codes. 
9. Hostess codes. Program has ended.
