To my great glee, I discovered earlier today that Ecwid (the shopping cart provider for Genet Models) had rolled out full support for free checkouts this morning.
This removes the clumsy pain-in-the-ass “contact me for a coupon code and then complicated sequence of steps pat head rub belly dance around the pentagram yo ho ho and a jug of rum” way of handling Chez Ebbles promo codes that was in place before, so I went ahead and moved all existing Chez Ebbles promo codes over to the Genet Models shop as discount coupon codes.
Now you can just plug your promo code directly into the discount coupon code box of the Genet Models shopping bag, and it’ll just work.
Granted, I still have to manually balance the ledger at the end of the day because they still don’t support “gift card” style persistent balances, but I don’t care–what’s important is that it’s not complicated for you guys to deal with anymore, and all you have to do is paste a code in a box and I’ll take care of the math and updating.
Just as a reminder, and if you’re not sure whether or not you have a promo code, previous Chez Ebbles project supporters can check using the Discountron.
Hmmmmm, discountatron just keeps asking me if I havee the right email address when I input it.
Ok promo code balence just arrived!
It does that if it doesn’t recognize the email address. I put in your Gmail address (it’s the one listed in the database) to see if it was misbehaving, and that worked. You should see it in your inbox soon.
yeah it arrived just before you posted, thanks. It was the gmail address I was putting in!
That’s weird–what browser are you using?
firefox, although I am having problems viewing flash content and video (i.e. you tube) with it at the moment as well!!
