For the last 3 months I've been actively researching direct sales companies in my quest to join one whose products I believed I could first and foremost sell in this economy, and secondly whose start up cost was inexpensive. Finally, this month, I came across a company whose products I knew that I could sell, and the start up cost was just $0.99, including your very own company website! Plus, there are no monthly quotas, no minimum orders, and 40% commission on all sales, plus 10% from your downline. When you order within seven days of signing up you also receive an additional 20% off your first order for a total of 60% off! After the first 30 days your only monthly obligation is only $4.99 per month to keep your website up and running. The company that I found was Soylicious.com.

Soylicious.com sells premium soy bean wax candles and tart chunks made from two types of American grown soybeans, with natural botanical oils added to give them vibrant colors and a creamy texture. Also available are soy soaps, room sprays, electric tart melter's and all new Melter Gems.

Why soy candles?

1. They burn clean, very little soot residue.
2. They cost significantly less than beeswax candles.
3. They deliver more scent with a lower melting pool and distribution point.

Soylicious.com has a great promotion going on right now. When you purchase a bag of "Melter Gems" for $16.95, you will receive a ring inside valued between $10-$1,000!!! With over 80 fragrances and a variety of products, I'm sure that you will find something on the website that will ignite your senses!

Giveaway!

One lucky Bargain Mom follower will win their choice of Melter Gems (valued at $16.95) or a 20 ounce Silhouette Candle (valued at $19.95) in their choice of scent!

MANDATORY: YOU MUST BE A BARGAIN MOM GOOGLE FRIEND CONNECT FOLLOWER AND TELL ME WHICH ITEM FROM SOYLICIOUS.COM YOU WOULD LIKE TO BUY (INCLUDING SCENT).
