AFFILIATE STATEMENT

We use Amazon as an affiliate throughout the site. Sometimes the affiliate is marked and sometimes it is not. All large promotional items are marked. Individual small non-promotional items are rarely marked as I earn literally pennies on the transaction. All links are direct to Amazon and are as specified. They are no “hidden” links, meaning that they clearly show “amazon.com” in their link to show you that you are being redirected. I get a small percentage of your sale if you make a purchase within a certain time window from certain items. Read more about our affiliate statement here.

  1. Gday Katie, I have had big problems with my iPad and particularly emails. I have a new email address as below. My problem is I can’t find the tutorial I purchased on making a clay cane cutter. It is only recently I purchased this but I am not sure which email address I was using at the time. The old one was maisiesjune@bigpond.com.

    Could you please tell me how to re-download this tutorial. My brain is so befuddled now and i am getting to the point of not wanting to be involved with technology At all.

    Thank you Katie

    Best wishes

    Maisie June Statham

    1. Sure Maisie, just go to https://katersacres.com/account/orders and you should see it there. Let me know if you have any more questions. You will need to sign in, if you can’t, we can open a new account for you and transfer things if needed.

  2. Hi Katie,
    I’mean in a bit of a bind right now. My daughter decided she isn’t ready to be a mom & we are adopting her 7 month old son. I didn’t ever think I would be a mom at almost 60 yrs. old but we do what we must in today’s messed up world. So I need to know if I can suspend my club account for right now & pick it back up when our legal expenses are all covered? Please email me asap.
    Thanks, Terri

    1. Hi Terri – I sent you an email. My prayers are with you.

  3. How do I cancel my club membership. I no longer have the time to continue. Thanks Patsy

    1. Hi Patsy! I’m sorry to see you go, but I understand. To unsubscribe, follow the directions in the policies by going to PayPal and logging onto your recurring payments dashboard. This will cancel your payments to me and you will be removed from the club.
