We extended last night's coupon. For anyone that missed it, please keep checking the The Temperature is Rising Sales Promotion located on the front page and watch the Site Announcements area for up to the minute specials.

We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience that this has caused.

Thank you, Jen - however, when I tried to use the extended code last night at about 1a.m., as soon as I heard that the threat had been contained, the store software would not accept the coupon code, reporting that it had expired.

Today's coupon, for half of last night's discount, is a 'pale substitute'  - I'm not complaining, I only point this out to clarify that there may indeed have been other customers who were unable to use the supposedly-extended coupon...  so you may hear about it from others as well...

As for me, I will keep watching, in the hope that a similarly-generous coupon code appears before the promotion is over!

Cheers!
