If you’re relatively new here, you may not know I have another site, Grechen’s Codes, that I started in 2006 and is where I post sales & coupon codes. Or used to. And am trying to more often again.
I used to post there every day, as I do here, but have lapsed the last couple of years, and sometimes go without posting for a week or so at a time. Often, I just don’t find anything worth posting, but I’ve also not made the time to devote to it like I used to. I started to see it as an obligation and a burden, but didn’t want to shut it down altogether, so I ignored it. And it sort of felt to me like I was encouraging mindless consumption – and excessive sale shopping, something I try to avoid.
BUT I’m still a bargain hunter at heart, and if there’s a code out there for something I’m interested in, then I’m going to use it. And I want to share the good ones with you without cluttering too many things up over here. Grechen’s Codes is an excelelnt extension of Grechen’s Closet, and that is where I’ll mention sales and coupons for places I shop at or mention here. For example, I posted about Organic by John Patrick last week, and today La Garconne is offering a 20% off sale items coupon code, and they have a great selection of some Organic pieces on sale. So, head over to Grechen’s Codes to see my sale picks. And one on Garmentory’s 35% off Baggu sale.
If you don’t want to visit another blog everyday, I would encourage you to sign up for the email newsletter at Grechen’s Codes and you’ll get an email whenever there’s a new post – and ONLY when there’s a new post. Which, hopefully, will be daily now, but we shall see. I used to work with quite a few online boutiques & designers to offer exclusive discounts to my readers, and I’d like to do that more of that again, and will feature those discounts over at Grechen’s Codes.
So, head over there if you’re interested. I am always grateful for your support.
And if you have any feedback/comments on how I post about sales & coupons, please, leave them below!
I always check Grechen’s Codes before I make a purchase. Especially when it’s something I want to buy from an independent boutique. Those can be hard to come by!
