Alright friends, been eyeing this Wendy Brigode necklace forever, right? That price tag though – oof. Stung every time I looked at it. Said “no way I’m paying full price,” gotta figure this out. Here’s how I actually snagged it without crying over my bank statement.
Tip 1: Sign Up For Their Emails? Yeah, Seriously.
Always ignored those “sign up and save” pop-ups, thought it was junk. Big mistake. One slow Tuesday afternoon, figured “what’s the harm?” Signed up on their main site using my backup email – you know, the one for inevitable spam. Didn’t expect much. Boom. Two days later, a 15% off code lands in that inbox for “new subscribers.” Felt kinda dumb for skipping this before. No brainer move.
Tip 2: Check Back Like… Constantly? Annoying, But Worked.
Bookmarked the necklace page. Like, right under my daily news site. Made it a weird habit. Coffee break? Check the page. Waiting for laundry? Check the page. Didn’t trust “sale alerts.” Saw the regular price for weeks, almost gave up. Then bam, Wednesday morning around 11 AM? Big yellow “SALE” banner slapped across the picture. Regular $250 suddenly showing $199.99. Not massive, but progress. Proof you gotta watch like a hawk.
Tip 3: Abandon That Cart Like You Mean It
Okay, added the necklace to my cart right after seeing the sale price. Felt risky closing the tab, right? What if it sold out? Did it anyway. Forgot about it for a few hours. Later that night, digging through emails again? Saw a new one: “Did you forget something? Get 10% EXTRA off your cart!” That old cart recovery trick. Used that email code ON TOP of the sale price. Felt like hacking the system. Original $250 piece now down to like $180 bucks. Sweeter.
Tip 4: Timing Matters More Than You Think
Heard vague whispers about end-of-season sales. Started monitoring when stuff changed. Right after Memorial Day weekend? Boom. The sale section blew UP. Wasn’t just my necklace – tons of pieces got marked way down. Saw my necklace was back at that $199.99 price again, BUT remembered my 10% cart abandon code was still active in my email. Combined ’em. Final damage? Snagged it for just under $80. Felt like a victory lap hitting that “Place Order” button.
So, the takeaway?
- Suck it up and sign up for emails. That “junk” sometimes holds gold.
- Refresh like it’s your job. Sales appear and vanish super quick.
- Add to cart and walk away. Let them chase you with extra discounts.
- Watch those calendar changes. Holidays and season ends = discount explosion.
Patience paid off. Got the shiny thing without the scary price. Felt good, man.
