Announcing The New BYC Store - Special Offer Celebration

Thread Starter 

We're excited to announce the new BackYardChickens.com Store!

This new store should be much easier to navigate and will definitely be easier for us to administer.

To celebrate we're going to shoot off some fireworks on the 4th and also present you with a limited offer:

For the first 10 orders that add any items to their cart that total $10 or more, you'll receive either of the following for FREE:
  Any 4 BYC Adhesive Bumper Stickers
  Any single BYC Magnetic Bumper Stickers

Simply add the items to your cart and use coupon code: newstore

BUT WAIT... THERE'S MORE!!!  wink

For the next 2 days only we've dropped the price on GFMs:

6 months for $10
12 months for $15

Combine the offers in the next 48 hours and you can get a GFM and free bumper stickers!

woot

This is a brand new system and while we've worked very hard to test it thouroughly there may be some bugs.  If you run into any problems or errors, or just have some ideas, comments, suggestions, or questions, please post them here.

Cheers!

Looks great!  woot

And those GFM prices... http://www.backyardchickens.com/forum/uploads/36934_drool.gif

The awesomeness of a movie can, under normal circumstances, be easily calculated by counting the number of cars destroyed and multiplying that figure by the number of witty comebacks issued by major characters. The Avengers is a very high ranking movie on this scale.

"Harrison Ford is the President of the United States" is the perfect movie tagline.

Hi Rob!   PERFECT TIMING!  Just got the notice that my GFM is about to expire, so I'm heading to the store right now.
Happy 4th and Thanks!

Hi again!  Do I need to re-register?  Got this message:
Error: The E-Mail Address was not found in our records, please try again!

Had to re-register.  Then got this message a couple of times trying to check-out:
You have requested an outdated version of PayPal. This error often results from the use of bookmarks.

and had to go back to the store and try again.

All done and 'GOLDEN' for another year.
Thanks again!

Yeah, I had to re-register too. It's probably a glitch in the new system.

Unfortunately, everyone had to re-register because it is completely different shopping cart platform. We looked into transferring the data over, but were unable to.

However, the good news is that you don't HAVE to register. You can make your purchases as a guest.

This cart is awesome, clean and easy to use.

We hope everyone likes it better than the old one. smile

Yup, you can checkout as a guest.   The only thing is that you have to register to use coupons.

The "outdated version of PayPal" note is very odd, so we'll look into that.

If there are any other problems or questions please let us know.

Also, if anybody thinks they may be close to their GFM expiring but don't know how long, they can PM Terrie and she can look up how many days are left.

If you're thinking about renewing... now's the time to do it!  big_smile

I think you have reached your coupon limit of orders!  I was wondering if the ladies line of clothing (tank tops) will be making a comeback?
