No more 20% off Tuesdays

Today was the last day of our attempt to lure customers into the store on Tuesdays.... namely, offering 20% off on all back issues. It didn't work. We have offered it for months now, and have had very few takers. In fact, let's face it. People don't want to come into comic book stores on Tuesdays. They'd rather wait for Wednesdays - new comic book day.

So, we decided to end our sale. It wasn't really doing what it was meant to do. Instead, we are scheming about some other ideas - such as a punch card for trade paperbacks, and/or preferred customer discounts. So, stay tuned. We still have some tricks up our sleeves.

  1. Seeing how I'm there every Wednesday, I'd be all about preferred customer discounts. Of course I lean towards free discounts for frequent customers, though I am willing to pay a membership fee to be a preferred customer for a discount.
