The Chronic Consumer

It’s been ages since I’ve actually purchased anything from J.Crew (they’ve become far too expensive for my tastes recently), but today I decided to check out their summer collection. When I arrived at the website, I saw a notice that said the site is being upgraded, and as a result is running very slowly.

To compensate visitors for the inconvenience, J.Crew is offering free shipping on all purchases. Just enter the code FREESHIP at checkout to apply the discount. There was no mention of an end date for the promotion, but I’d expect it to be very soon, so if you’re looking to buy something from J.Crew, you better do it ASAP!

(And the site wasn’t even all that slow for me. I did notice, however, that many product images were not showing up or loading properly.)
