I went to one in Maine the other day that had two of the Stained Glass Love jackets - size 12 in white. Is it possible they managed to hook up the website to the outlets so that they can move some of that stock more effectively? That sounds too advanced for Lulu. Sending an email blast that brings down the website is more their level, unfortunately.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1319045721490540616.post-899791742349527632016-10-14T07:46:28.209-07:002016-10-14T07:46:28.209-07:00I sized down for black toasty tights.I sized down for black toasty tights.janine57https://www.blogger.com/profile/06840728747042707981noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1319045721490540616.post-24695933643272107232016-10-14T07:46:12.493-07:002016-10-14T07:46:12.493-07:00They also just moved to a different warehouse so w...They also just moved to a different warehouse so wondering if in the process they found a bunch of old stock?<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1319045721490540616.post-71484766717336202972016-10-13T21:06:48.644-07:002016-10-13T21:06:48.644-07:00Thanks lulumum!

Every 3 months they send me a check and all I had to do was click on the pull down that pops up to activate. It's not a lot to do to get cash back on online purchases. I've been using ebates for a couple of years now and have the address bar widget - it automatically drops down if there's a rebate so I really don't have to do anything except click on it. It doesn't motivate me to buy stuff I wouldn't but it's nice to get cash back for buying what I was going to buy anyway.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1319045721490540616.post-49841982813020939352016-10-13T17:35:01.807-07:002016-10-13T17:35:01.807-07:00I guess the plan was: expand capacity (through mor...I guess the plan was: expand capacity (through more stores and fixing the production chain), raise margins (higher prices and lower quality), and make money. Unfortunately, they thought brand loyalty or brand appeal would be enough for people to accept poor quality and higher prices. That might - might - have been the case, but pissing off loyal customers (through discontinuing classic items, stupidly redoing the website, and killing HLL) and offering piss poor new designs means that things are not working out as planned. Frankly, they aren't going to woo back the bitter former Lulu lovers with discounts. They need to bring back the classics and offer decent new items. Discounts just encourages discount buys, not loyalty.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1319045721490540616.post-79553847056448740502016-10-13T16:25:58.536-07:002016-10-13T16:25:58.536-07:00Either bought out or Potdevin fired after their st...Either bought out or Potdevin fired after their stock tanking $20.00 in the span of a month and from the looks of it their 3rd & 4th qtr numbers won't help.

The toasties are slightly warmer I think. I like both a lot!
