Excuses, excuses

As you may have guessed, we're run off our feet here at FrockHQ 'cos of our mega birthday sale, so any musings on my growing additcion to ABC docos/people who wear heels in Coles/tingly anticipation for the new series of Masterchef are going to have to wait a couple of days while we pick and pack, wrap and stick all your bargains! Gosh, that was a long sentence.

The postcard doesn't lie. I (we) do wish you were here - many hands make light work after all. However, I'm very proud of Team Frock as we are alot more caught up with orders then I thought we'd be. Basically, orders placed up until 1:30pm today are on their way to you, and any after that (and before about 3pm tomorrow) will be out tomorrow - which means bargains in your hot little hands before the weekend! And of course, the discount runs til 11:59pm on Thursday.

Plus, Eb just nicked off with a big bundle of exciting new goodies to shoot, so look out from Friday for even more new stuff from the likes of Minty Meets Munt, GRAB and Blue Juice. It might not be 30% off, but it's 100% awesome.

30%off Storewide Birthday Sale!

Frock You is turning 3 so, in the true spirit of celebreation, we're having a massive 3 day sale so we can work ourselves into the ground, drink too much coffee, generally get tired and cranky...on second thoughts, I'm having the week off, that would be a much better way to celebrate, no?

Yeah, that would make me really popular around here. "See that flood of orders? Oh and those cartons of new stuff? You work it out, I'm off to rent some DVD's and eat the rest of my Easter eggs. See you Monday!"

What will make you popular, however, is buying some new shoes. Or a winter jacket. Or a wicked new top. Then everyone will think you're cool, and when you say flippantly, "oh yeah, nabbed this at 30% off," they won't go, "you cheap bastard", they'll say "smart cookie". 'Cos in 2010, it's cool to be a frugalista. Use the code BIRTHDAY30 from now until Thursday, and celebrate your sensible economising. It'll make those towering new heels seem that much better.

Free Shipping, Oh Yeah!

Man there are some awesome sales about at the moment. Even if, like myself, you are wholly and totally and completely and utterly banned from buying another thing because your wardrobe is literally overflowing and all new purchases are turning into a small mountain on the bedroom floor. Ebay, is that you I hear calling?

However, in case you have room for one more purchase, we're offering free shipping within Aus til Jan 31st. All orders, big or small, nada postage!

Shipping is definitely a gripe with online consumers - thankfully, the majority have no hassles with our teeny $6 fee and overnight service. Free shipping all the time is something we are considering if this little promotion turns out to be worth it (we're monitoring the amount of abandoned carts. It sounds so dramatic, "abandoned". More like, "I was pondering some gorgeous new shoes and realised dinner was burning"). I've left my fair share of abandoned carts strewn across cyberspace, especially at kid's online stores, mpst of whom are currently offering fab discounts but then charging $8 or $10 shipping, sometimes not even for overnight! Be buggered if I'm going to pay a premium price and then wait 4 or 5 days for it to show (regular post to tassie is slooooow). 

Well, there's my little rant for the day. Oh, and also to the silly old sod today who parked their car on a diagonal and made it near impossible for me to squeeze into mine: I'M NOT SORRY I SCRATCHED YOUR FUGLY VEHICLE WITH MY DOOR. Ha.

 Free Post - get into it. It rocks!
