Well, this was a surprise! Last night I bumped into two of the sales associates from my local
Coach outlet (Aurora, IL) while shopping at the Lord & Taylor store - in a totally different mall - and we instantly recognized each other! Obviously, I spend too much time in the Coach outlet store!
To make me look even more guilty, I was carrying a great big Coach shopping bag because I had just spent a lot of money on a beautiful new bag at the Coach boutique in that same mall (Oak Brook, IL). And I was carrying my Coach Rory bag, decorated with my Coach reindeer fob, and I was wearing a Coach scarf, watch, earrings, necklace, and ring - I really need to get a (non-Coach) life, but not quite yet!
I asked them if "they were likely to start handing out the tiered coupon to all customers during the week before Christmas?" and they said that they "weren't sure but expect that it will happen - because Coach has done it in the past."
I told them that I've had already used up my email tiered coupon for stocking stuffer gifts - and I got the feeling that they might let me use it again - but I didn't push it.
They also said that "we will be starting our 2-day free shipping soon, so look for that!" so I expect that "free, fast shipping" will be part of the next online outlet sale that starts tomorrow.
