J.Crew sent an email to remind us that today is the last day they are offering an additional 20% off sale merchandise online with promo code EXTRA20.From the comments (in different posts) it sounds like the Aficionadas and Aficionados are either {1} buying up a lot (especially since prices on relatively new arrivals are falling and the items are not "final sale") or {2} holding out until December or January (post-holidays for the major sales).
Sidenote: J.Crew's stock fell below $10 a share. (It is $9.05 as I type this.) This is extremely disappointing news for investors. According to J.Crew's press release on their website (click here for link to "Investors Relations"), they are having a conference call 11/25/08 to review "third quarter fiscal 2008 financial results." It will be interesting to hear what top executives say about J.Crew's current financial situation and the projected outlook for the following quarter.
Are you taking advantage of the additional percent off? Are you planning to wait longer until there are better deals? Are you doing something else (e.g. not shopping for awhile to save money, shopping at other retailers)? :)
