Subject: Your Attention all Fabric Mart Premium Members-Alert Date: 8/19/12 9:04 AM Clicked on Fabric Mart (as I am planning my Fall Wardrobe) and found out that the premium member special was all Giorgio Armani fabrics are 1/2 off. Of course I selected a few myself. Have fun shopping!
(I think these fabrics do not fit under the column of cheap fabrics - something for long term wear, much more "green" )

Date: 8/19/12 10:12 AM I thought you were going to offer information that was beneficial to me...like "the website was hacked and everybody's CC number is now on Facebook", but instead, I learn something that is dangerous to my wallet and my psyche.

But when you give to someone in need, don't let your left hand know what your right hand is doing.
My interpretation, in this instance would be, if you are in need of fabric, right hand is going to have to get clever and sneaky to keep left hand from knowing because apparently left hand is a real party pooper.
I also find the same thing to be true of some husbands.
(And this is written all tongue-in-cheeky because I recently stopped inventorying my fabric when I got to 838 yards.   I also haven't bought any fabric this year, nay, not one yard I say unto you. Because 838 is a very scary number.) -- Edited on 8/19/12 11:51 AM -- |

Date: 8/19/12 12:06 PM They must be playing favorites! No such offer appeared to me - and clicking on the Armani offerings just shows me FM's regular price.
That's really OK for the pocketbook....
eta: I looked harder and found this phrase on the Armani Page :"Premium Member offer! 50% Off Giorgio Armani" Clicking on it didn't do anything. I haven't ordered from FM in awhile, so I am probably not a Premium Member. -- Edited on 8/19/12 12:14 PM -- ------ --Robyn

Date: 8/21/12 1:04 PM Thanks for the alert, Restart. I'm not a premium member of Fabric Mart, but I was able to get 20% off the price of the Armani fabric (and everything else I ordered) by entering the code "WELCOME." This code works for anyone (new customer or old) ordering from Fabric Mart's new website for the first time.
By the way, because my order totaled over $150 before the 20% discount was applied, I will be automatically entered into Fabric Mart's Premium Membership program. I also qualified for a free 12 yard bundle of interfacing. My flat rate shipping was a very reasonable $8.
Which Armani fabric did I order? The Giorgio Armani Denim Look Wool Suiting which I plan to use for a jacket to enter into PR's Mini Wardrobe contest that starts in September.
I had been seeking a black denim or denim like fabric for a long time. This one is a bit of a splurge, but I think it will be perfect. ------ The essence of life is statistical improbability on a colossal scale.
