Brave Writer Black Friday Rebate Coupon

Happy Thanksgiving!

I’m thankful for YOU, our Brave Writer families who work so hard to raise children who bravely share their insights and ideas with the world through powerful, connected writing.

As we gear up for 2010 (Brave Writer turns 10 in January!), please use this Black Friday Rebate Coupon to stock up on all your BW needs for the coming year. You don’t have to leave your house for this shopping trip. Simply boot up the computer and click. Add in a mug of hot cider and you’ll be ready for the most relaxing shopping you’ll do all season.

Here’s how it works:

Black Friday shopping for Brave Writer starts at midnight, November 27 (that means late Thursday night after you eat turkey) and ends midnight November 28 (Friday night). We’re in the eastern time zone so make the adjustment for your time zone.

The Black Friday Rebate Coupon is good for any Brave Writer product. That means you can use it for The Writer’s Jungle, or Help for High School, or any of The Writer’s Jungle packages; the Gold package which includes the Arrow and Slingshot Evaluation and Planning Tools, or the Platinum package which includes year-long Language Arts Subscriptions (Arrow and Boomerang). You can apply the coupon to Already Published isses of the Arrow, Boomerang or Slingshot. You can use it for any of the writing aids: Fairy Tales, Poetry, Myths and Legends, and so on. You may even apply this coupon to a semester order of the Boomerang Complete (whose price will go up in January). If you purchase the semester now, you lock in the current price.

For a limited time (until January) we’re offering The Writer’s Jungle and Help for High School together for $124.99 in a package we call the BW Home Study Package. Don’t miss this chance to get them for the lowest price possible.

The coupon is not applicable to online classes (registration for those is on Tuesday, December 1, 2009).

The coupon has two possible rebate amounts.

Spend $120.00 or more – $25.00 rebate.

Spend $200.00 or more – $50.00 rebate.

Simply place your order and put the following code on your Paypal order (if a note option is provided) or send it to me in an email: [email protected]. If you send the code in an email, please include the name and email address of your Paypal order.

The code is: BLKFRIBW09

The coupon only works with online orders. We will not accept the coupon for check orders. If you have difficulties with Paypal, contact Julie at: [email protected].

You may share the Black Friday Rebate Coupon code on homeschooling forums, email lists and with your friends. When a friend uses it, we’ll add her to our email list in order to activate the code. If you share the code with a friend who makes a purchase, send me an email with her name and order and we’ll send you a FREE issue of the Arrow or Boomerang as a thank you.

Black Friday orders are not refundable so be sure you know what you want when you make your order.

Julie

P.S. Check out the new class schedule. Registration opens Tuesday, December 1, 2009 at noon EST

Use the Black Friday Rebate Coupon to order Brave Writer Products on Friday, November 27 for $25.00 or $50.00 off of your total purchase! See inside of this email for details.

Black Friday Coupon

Hi Everyone!

Last year we offered a Black Friday Coupon for Brave Writer products. It is issued through the email list (what we call “The Zipline”) which you can sign up for on the home page of the website or you can send your email address to [email protected] and we’ll add you. The coupon enables you to get $25.00 rebate for any purchase of $120.00 or more, or $50.00 rebate for a purchase that is $200.00 or more. The coupon is only good for 24 hours (midnight of November 27 to midnight of November 28, 2009, EST). You can only get the coupon code if you sign up for the email list.

This coupon is good for products only, not classes.

You may share the code with friends, but they need to be on the email list to activate the code. They can add themselves, or they can send their email addresses to me at the above email address.

We will have a few new products to choose from by next Friday too (will send out an email to the list announcing them in the next week). We hope this little bit of holiday help enables you to stock up on all your Brave Writer needs for the coming semester!

Psst: pass it on!
