Only on Wednesdays

Always Wednesday

Translation: Your voucher code: … This voucher is until Wednesday: …

Thanks for the high number of vouchers recently, CDWOW – on top of your prices being quite good already. However, you should work on your mail templates, because (1) there’s a verb missing and (2) none of these days are Wednesdays…

(CDWOW mails Dec/Jan 08/09)


But there actually is some variety:

Only 8 hours! From 1pm to 7pm!

Translation: For only 8 hours 2€ discount on everything at CDWOW – only from 13-19h (1pm–7pm), click here

Now I don’t mind your time-limited discount campaigns at all, dear CDWOW, but you should be a little more careful when creating and advertising them. How long does this campaign actually last?

    Ich finde grundsätzlich beschränkte Aktionen voll bescheuert, weil ich nicht zu deren Zeiten da sein kann. Meist jedenfalls nicht.

      Ja, die sollten da etwas variieren oder gleich 24h laufen lassen – andererseits dürften nur die wenigsten wirklich so oft bestellen wollen, wie CDWOW Aktionen bringt (oder zumindest in den letzten paar Monaten brachte).
