Hi All: Since V4L is turning marketing promotions toward other media venues, this thread is dedicated as a resource for ECF and V4L Family members to learn of promotions offered outside of this forum who may not have access to that information. I mean no disrespect to V4L, just trying to level the playing field for everyone. Please feel free to post any sale information or coupon codes here, I will start with the one from Facebook published at noon today as follows:

Thanks Jam and Wader great idea. I think you two should run for President and whichever one wins the othe can be the VP! I'll vote for ya :D

How flattering Plant, thank you! But I would vote for Wader for Prez so I could sleep in the elevated chair behind him :closed eyes:

Thanks for posting Audrey; we should respect the intent of her post by not repeating the code here - it's pretty clear she would like us to go to the corporate forum for the details.

Guys, here's the deal, not necessarily trying to drive traffic to our forum. We ran the same sale there as we did here yesterday

They were supposed to run at the same time, but we were having issues with our forum yesterday.

Sorry to misinterpret Audrey's message Mark, thanks for the clarification. :facepalm:

Been out of town, read all the hoopla, much like I thought...it was much to do about absolutely nothing. Thanks for clearing it up Dohsma. If this is going to exist as a Sticky, perhaps nuking the Coupon Codes for 2010 might be in order. Better yet nuke both and replace them with a simple 2012 Sales & Promotions Sticky.

:2cool:

Snow, it wasn't the recent $10 FB sale that upset people; it was the exclusive sale on FB on Twitter that some of the folks here were not aware of per Katz's thread: http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/vapor4life/287950-latest-sale-only-fb-twit.html. I think the term "loyal customers" upset some of those here.

I am on FB, so it didn't bother me, but clearly there are some who are not going to participate in those media options. The purpose of my thread was simply to provide a place for people to post promotions they might have heard of for the benefit of those here; I didn't ask that it be a sticky nor was it my intention. Now that it is however, I disagree with putting a year in the title of the sticky for the same reason you alluded to - we never even had a 2011 version, the 2010 version is dead in the water, a 2012 version will also die. I would rather there be one that lives perpetually without a time reference.

If you can't stand me that much and want to start a new one, feel free to have your friends delete mine and post yours.

Jamvector it's nice to see you place yourself in such high importance but frankly I could care less about you. If you want to personalize this that's fine, I'll call Kleenex and tell them to double production so there is enough tissues for all your issues. The isolated incidents which occurred over the last couple of days are not standard operating procedure for V4L by any means, a fact we all know. The entire purpose of having a sale is to increase orders and drive revenue making these exceptional events even more evident. Despite whatever issues you seem to have with me at least we both agree that the Coupon Codes for 2010 is a dead sticky and should be nuked. I have not posted on this matter, but simply replied so there is no Sticky that would be mine. This is not a mine/yours issues so I find the "feel free to have your friends delete mine and post yours." to be quite interesting.

The only person I have any empathy towards in this matter is Katz, she pays a premium for shipping and waits weeks for her orders to arrive. It was no secret that the extraordinary frequency of sales was going to end for awhile and folks had the chance to stock up during the last Wheel sales. As for using the term "loyal customers" and folks getting offended, well that is even more evidence that something simply fell through the cracks. After reading the posts on this it was apparent that something procedural was amiss, no more no less. Jumping to the conclusion that this was some intentional dig in an effort to divide and alienate a portion of the long-standing customer base seems at best to defy logic and reason.

By all means I leave you with the last word so try and be creative and not overly wordy as usual, I'm done with this post.

Was this really necessary? Jamvector is a long-time and valuable member of the V4L community. He certainly deserves more respect than what you've shown, IMO.

I honestly can not believe this.
