Jack's Mannequin Store Sale, Jimmy Kimmel Appearance & UK Festivals

on Thursday 25 June 2009 - 14:01:25 | by Zoe
GoMerch, and in that effect the Jack's Mannequin store, is having a sale from Thursday, June 25th at 10:00 AM PDT, to Sunday, June 28th at 11:59 PM PDT. It is called the Happy Birthday Taylor sale, named after one of their customers who had their birthday on June 4 - why? In their newsletter they said,

Taylor is our friend from Omaha, Nebraska. We met her when she ordered the "Bomby McGhee" and "Too Reach For" tees from the Clandestine store a few months ago. It turns out that her birthday was June 4th. Since we were planning a sale anyway, we figured why not name it after her? After thinking of no reasons why it wasn't a cool idea and a lot reasons why it was, the "Happy Birthday Taylor Sale" was born.


Anyway, after loading your cart up with merch, on the left-hand side of the checkout page (or at least on the Jack's Mannequin store layout) is a text box where you can enter the code "TAYLOR" to get 10% off your merch. The sale applies to the entire GoMerch store though, so you can get merch from other bands by checking out the store at gomerch.com. The Jack's Mannequin store also appears to have received a face-lift.

To take advantage of the sale, go here.
