Jeeezzz... I can't believe I got this approved, but heck... I got in "the Boss's" ear about this for you guys...

I still can't believe I got this!

This is an email template for a mailblast we haven't released yet, and won't until July 03.

But the deals are all set in the system... ready for the mailblast to go out.

It's for one of our sites: OutletStuff.com (http://www.outletstuff.com)

.

Like a Giant Online Garage Sale,
You get a 50-Hour Secret HeadStart,
Use your Promo Code for 10% MORE OFF!

(You're the 1st to know this even exists! :) )



So here's the thing... OutletStuff.com is our version of OverStock, except that it's specifically for Corvette & Hummer goodies that are discontinued, and returned custom goods (wrong size, usually). There are also items there with other branding - other clients of ours - and even items that have... no branding at all.

This is inventory we Firesell because we don't want to carry it any longer. It's always limited... always changes, and the deals are always very, very solid.

Except - here's the ICING ON THE CAKE...

You're the first to know about this, and you can use your promo code: smokinest for this for an ADDITIONAL 10% off!

(Yep... I still can't believe I got that for you! It's like a giant online garage sale now for SV Members who beat the rush to the goodies before anyone else on our lists get to know!)

50 HOURS BEFORE OUR OWN LISTS FIND OUT!

So... you have about 50 hours, starting right now... before we release our mailblast to our own Members.

Get in there... use your promo code (smokinest) when making any & all orders... and beat the rush for the best deals!

Ready, set... go! :eek: :willy_nilly: :cheers: :thumbsup:

(Man... some of you are going to be on this "like a pack of hound-dogs on a 3-legged cat"... picked it cccclllleeeaannnn).

Ackk... someone noticed that the promo code isn't causing the 10% discount to appear on the shopping cart!

I just checked; the promo code DID take, indeed, in the system... but it didn't apply the 10% off.

Ok... sheesh... here is the deal, then...

1) I need to update the notices, but folks are going to not want to wait, or they might risk losing a sale to someone else.

2) With that in mind, I'll say this:

* You can wait until I respond later (tomorrow, working hours) to indicate that you're good to go - you'll see the 10% off hit while making your order...

Or...

* You can make purchase now (we track the promo codes), and PM me the details of your order - copy of your email receipt - and tomorrow, I'll go through each and every one of them with Lyndell, making sure to credit you back your 10%.

THAT way, you don't have to risk losing the purchase to someone else tonight.

.
.

My apologies... I should have checked more carefully! I did note that the promo codes were applied in the system.

I hope that by giving you the option of making purchase now, you can go through with it, resting assured that I'll take care of your 10% refunds in the morning. Clearing that inventory out is the highest priority on this end, and the work of manually refunding everyone's 10% is a small price to pay on our end to get that to happen.

Ok... I will reply to this thread when this is corrected for those of you who wish to wait - but again, feel secure that if you purchase now, you'll lock your gear in, and you'll certainly be refunded the 10% tomorrow. You have my word on that...! :thumbsup:

OK...!

I just got word and checked; the promo code is now issuing the 10% discount correctly during the order process.

I also checked with sales, and they're aware of the refunds that are due and working on them as we speak. :cheers:

Check your email for confirmation on the 10% refunds (for those of you who made purchase already)... if you don't see your confirmation by the end of today, let me know, and I'll get right on it.

For those of you who've been waiting, you're all clear!

Final Note: the Promo Codes are going to expire for OutletStuff at midnight (EST this time) on July 5th!


K...! All set. :thumbsup:
