I've never bought anything from Avon. |

My wife sometimes buys Avon products, but not often. I don't like make-up, and my wife often defers to my preferences. |

I used to purchase quite a bit when I was in high school - I didn't have a car, and there was an Avon Lady in our neighborhood. I browse through their catalogs sometimes, but haven't bought anything for years, partly because I don't wear makeup anymore, and partly because I think some of their items (particularly their decor and jewelry) are overpriced and I don't really need them. |

No. |

Yeah, one of my friends does the catalogues.
It was a bit hit and miss to start, but I've found lot of items now that I like and use regularly - moisturisers and make-up. |

I would never spend money on s+*t like that. To me, most body washes, colognes, etc. that are sold to the general public are full of preservatives and are much "watered-down." I prefer real aromatherapy with real herbs if I'm going to buy a scent, bath oils or the like. I like smells that are the same as those in nature, like the scent of rosemary on my hands that happens when I touch my plant or pick some of it for my neighbor to use in cooking. |

I've never purchased from Avon. Some of my family members have, and they enjoy the products they get. |

Rarely. For a while there I was into their jewelry. |

From the pictures of her, she seems beautiful enough without make-up. |
Matty    |
Well, thank you very much. |

I don't like buying stuff I don't see. I find Avon quatities to be very small, especially for the low priced items. |

My wife does regularly - not cosmetic stuff but purses, sandals, candles, etc. |

Yes, I have purchased Avon a few times; mostly items for my wife as gifts. My Mother has been selling Avon for 38 years. She makes a little money at it, but not a lot. She seems to enjoy the social aspect of being an Avon representative. |

I like Avon products, good quality. I wear very little makeup, only blush, lipstick, a little eye liner. No skin makeup. I haven't bought Avon in years, but I like it. |

Nope! I am pretty sure of that. |

No..I don't wear make-up..And there's no way my mom would spend that much even if I did. Nor would she spend that much on herself.

Nope. I think this is a weird way to sell things. I wish I could just find everything in stores. |

My mom sells Avon .. it doesn't make her much money, and I truly wish she would get a better job, as she sincerely needs one.
When it comes to Avon, the employees get little profit, yet everything in those books is insanely overpriced IMO. |

Rarely. I sometimes buy purses and stuff like that, but only when they're in the discount, end of season catalogues. |

Your right, Avon products are extremely overpriced. My Mother works full time and has also been selling Avon part time for 38 years. She makes decent money at her job, but doesn't make very much money with Avon. It seems to be more of a chore and not really worth what little money she makes, but she refuses to give it up. I think she enjoys the social aspect of it when she visits all her customers or they come to her house. I have bought several of their products, mostly as gifts for my wife. My Mother has also given us a few Avon products over the years. |

Very Rarely... I remember when the ladies used to come knocking at the door... It used to be fun to capture them and lock them in my basement... |

Rarely, but it's happened as they make a good bug spray, lotion, sunscreen combo |
