I plan to get the 3 for $219 shirt "deal" at BB (specifically, looking for ESS shirts). The 30% that I've seen talked about here, will that be applied to ESS on March 15? Should I wait?

If it does apply, I'm thinking of getting them now and then going back to the store and ask for a credit applied to my cc, assuming they do that.,

It does apply, but I'm pretty sure they won't do a price adjustment. Promotional offers usually say that they are not applicable towards previous purchases.

Actually this spring it's 30% off, one day only, Thursday, March 15. It almost certainly does not apply to BF. Not sure about cordovan.


Actually, the fine print on the email I received from the non-profit that gets me my discount indicates cordovan is excluded, but says nothing about BF...

Thanks for the info. I actually want the BF longwings but I think in SF Bay Area only the BF store has them

Is the 30% Corporate Discount even worth it? For example, currently they have the 1818 suits on sale at 2 for $1599. At full price the suit is $1098, so once the discount is applied, it really isn't that much cheaper the current sales price. I was hoping to use the discount to get a decent half-canvas suit on the cheap but it looks like the savings won't be as substantial as I one thought.

Other than December 26th, this is as cheap as it gets at BB for buying one suit. December 26 will have this 30% off plus an additinal 15-20% kicker for purchases that day. It worked out to an 1818 Fitzgerald for $500.

If you're buying two suits, this is a good deal, since the Brooks Buys are not applicable December 26th. With the 30% discount, you're looking at two suits for $1120.

Wait, how are you getting 2 for $1120? Are you applying the 30% off to the sales price? Fine print on the email I got today says the discount cannot be applied to the sales price.

Okay did a quick search and I guess some people have been successful in getting BB to stack sales price and corporate discount together. I'll try it out this Thursday and keep my fingers crossed.

During the corporate incentive sale, you can get 30% off the Brooks Buys prices (2 for $1599). $1120 is 70% of $1600. That's not true for all BB sales, but always has been for the corporate incentive sale.

So, to confirm, is this Thursday, 3-15, the one day only 30% off? Or does it extend through weekend?

doesn't make much sense, does it?
you'd think corporate members have a job during the week and can't get to the BB store easily during business hours

i'm thinking about the rodeo drive flagship store in particular because they close at 6pm and i can never make it there during the week unless if i just take an extended lunch or something
