Bath & Body Works is moving into the digital age and will now be offering coupons via text message!
Here’s an example of one that was sent out yesterday:
THIS WKND ONLY: Don’t 4get Mom! FREE Fragrance Mist w/purch (1/Trans) Valid thru 5/10/09@BBW stores invalid at Outlet. Fwd it on!
Of course standard text messaging rates will apply, but this is a fantastic way to save on printer ink and always have your coupons available! Just show the cashier your text message during your transaction, and he or she will apply the discount.

I wonder how well-received these new text messages will be with BBW consumers? I’m a huge fan of texting, but don’t want to head down that road of promotional texts. Email is something I can check when I have time; texts are immediate notifications that stop me what I’m doing. I wonder if I’m the only one who feels like this?

I agree and think you have a very good point there, Shelby. If nothing else, I would be VERY selective about the companies that I choose to receive promotional texts from.

Yeah, me too. Some restaurants, like Moe’s, have food discounts if you are are part of their text club. I declined the option, because I like the option of filtering messages using e-mail. Texting from anyone at anytime would become a nuisance to me.

I know this i san old thread, but I signed up for it months ago. I’m not impressed. Nothing but promo stuff. Same ‘coupons’ as on line. Nothing to feel ‘special’ about!!
