I received my "take an additional 25% off the sale price" card in the mail yesterday and my salesperson informed me last Saturday (when she set a few items aside for me) that the "Grant" (Edward Green) shoe would be on sale at 40% off in case anyone is interested. Based on the the description of the sale in the mailing I received yesterday it appears that the first mark-down on many items will be 40%.

The Grant (black only) and the Eden (again, black only) are on the RL website. I wasn't familiar with the Eden - it's basically a chelsea shoe. I wonder if any other colors of the grant will be available in store, and if so, why the Grant only?

I thought the kicker card was for 20%. Please confirm that yours is for 25%.

Mine's 20%, but I figured the OP was a customer of such stature that they tossed him an extra five points

I'll check it when I'm home this evening and will let you know.

I was looking at the Grant at the time and didn't ask about any other styles.

Please see if there's an online code too.

My SA is getting the Grant in brown for me in a bigger size than they stock. I'm normally 12D in just about everything (11E in Lobb 7000!), but 11.5 English EGs and downright painful. I've never been able to get an EG shoe to fit, they run so tight, and no one stocks larger sizes. I realize they recommend a tight fit, but I'm not willing to damage my foot for the sake of a "break-in" period. Hopefully this time's the charm.

For folks in Boston, the Newbury store now has three Green models (Grant, Barksdale, and Elastic Side, all in black), and the staff is practically throwing these things at you for the 40+20 sale.

is this an online sale, or in store only?

There's a code on the 20% kicker card, but not on the main "40% off regular prices on select spring merchandise card. The code is MAY15 . I would assume either the MAY15 code works for all purchases, or all items will be discounted on the website during the sale and you only need the code for the kicker - can't remember which way it works.

Based on past sales will any interview type suits be on sale?
If so, in what range?

I doubt it, but it doesn't hurt to ask.

Just hit the Mansion and here's the skinny...

All items are 40% off with an additional 20% with the kicker code.

I scored the following:

RLPL by Saint Andrews 2B dark tan gaberdine suit
Grants in black on the 888
icon_gu_b_slayer[1].gif

RLPL version of Malvern in chestnut on the 888
5 RLPL Lorenzini dress shirts
5 RLPL ties

They are definitely taking pre-sale orders and will hold stuff and charge you on this Tursday.

Unleash the hounds!

Will they give me the extra 20% off without the kicker card? I didn't get one in the mail.

Definitely. The code for online is "May15", I believe. Just mention it and they will give it to you.
