A Thank-You from J.Crew (for me)

A Thank-You from J.Crew (for me)

Last week, a few readers received a special, “Thank-You Note from J.Crew.”  I was very excited to hear this news, but was rather disappointed that this offer was not disseminated to all J.Crew shoppers.

Well, I came home from work today and there was a plain, white envelope in my mailbox.  It was simple and white and addressed to me.  The back of it read, “(Don’t miss what’s inside.) J.Crew.”  i had an idea of what was inside from what I wrote last week.  It would be a gift card from J.Crew.

I opened it and was very pleasantly surprised to find a $50 gift card instead of the $25 gift card that many readers had been reporting.

I must say that I am very excited to spend this little treat. With the extra 20% off discount that is being offered right now, this gift card came at the most opportune time. I did not expect one after last week and had given up on the notion. J.Crew did surprise me.

Did you end up getting a gift card after all?  Are you expecting one?

    my sept 15 rewards card was for $50. But I didn’t get one for oct 15…

    You are so lucky! I did not get either mailing for the $25 or $50 gift cards. My last rewards card though from the JCrew credit card was for $100 and I used it on a coat.

    “we play favorites” – I guess they do. Here again is the “favorite J.Crew customer” thing. Am I the only person who didn’t get one of these $25, or $50, and is just “slightly” unhappy given that I spend just more than a little money at J.Crew….

  4. Rae says:

    Wow, congratulations, Leigh! Now let us know what you get with it!

    Aasha, I was very annoyed at the first one but not so much with this one…guess I am over it even though I spend a lot with JCrew as well….

    I got one for $100. I was rather surprised at the amount – while I did spend a lot of money at JCrew in the last year, I’m not sure why mine was $100 and not the $25 that most people received. Not that I’m complaining!

  7. Aasha says:

    Ann – thanks – it is not like I am going to lose a whole lot of sleep or anything….and I still like all of you :)
    I guess I just wonder about the randomness of it. I mean I’ve never gotten one. But I am not going to dwell on it anymore either like you, since I gather I am just one of the minions…:)

  8. Leigh says:

    Catalina, that is great that you received a card for $100. Now is agreat time to spend it since the private sale is going on!

    Aasha and Ann, I am still sorry to hear that you two did not get one. I would be on the lookout. It may be on the way in the mail.

    I am in the midst of fashioning another email to Mickey Drexler. This topic will definitely be included.

    Leigh, Yes, I would really like to know how they decide who gets these special gift cards…I mean I placed a ton of orders during the “upgrade” and had all kinds of problems and I spend about $1,000 a month there…sometimes more– so I don’t know what the method to their madness is!!!!

  10. Aasha says:

    Thanks Leigh, we already talked via email about this so if you can get some answers great. You know that like Ann, I have also continued to spend during the upgrade.

    I ended up ordering the berry-trimmed Astrid jacket in the charcoal (which is backordered). I thought I should splurge on something that was distinctive. I’m keeping my fingers crossed that it shows up before the November ship date!
