Gator Pam Posted October 23, 2010 Share Posted October 23, 2010 Goes great with my GottaDeal t-shirt from back in '06 (it's a collector's item by now).I'm thinking this is the GottaDeal shirt I've been wearing year-round lo these many years. The gray one with the GottaDeal logo and "Why Pay Retail" slogan.I am so glad I won the current one, as this older one is getting threadbare. Am looking forward to receiving it!

I think I did win a more 'updated' one a few years back but I lost it. My gray vintage GD t-shirt is still in mint condition and goin' strong since I pretty much only wear it a few times a year. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tn20 Posted October 23, 2010 Share Posted October 23, 2010 I got mine and was so excited- especially after getting the pen and highlighter, too. But what do you know... my rotten hubby has already taken everything over! About an hour after I opened the package, I look up and there is DH, wearing my shirt.... then later I'm looking for my new pen... can't find it. Ask DH who says, "Its in my bag with the highlighter for school." What a punk! Thanks again, Brad! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brad Posted October 23, 2010 Author Share Posted October 23, 2010 Yup, that's the one. I think I did win a more 'updated' one a few years back but I lost it. My gray vintage GD t-shirt is still in mint condition and goin' strong since I pretty much only wear it a few times a year. :) We've had 5 total shirts: 1. lighter blue shirt with small GottaDeal.com on front and big "Why Pay Retail" on back2. gray "team-style" with GD and WPR? slogan and "Est. 2004" on front3. original black Black Friday shirt4. navy blue GD shirt with GD logo and WYR on front (current shirt)5. navy blue BF shirt (current shirt) I have a few of each of the first 3 designs that I saved. Might have to give those away some time as they've apparently become collector's items Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Better yet I think I'll frame it and put it up on my wall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brad Posted October 23, 2010 Author Share Posted October 23, 2010 Pic of the first and second GD shirts for those of you who don't remember: http://gottadeal.com/images/merch/oldshirt.jpg http://gottadeal.com/images/merch/newshirt.jpg I always liked that 2nd design. Our next shirt might be an updated take on that one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our next shirt might be an updated take on that one.That's the one I have that is getting threadbare. I love it! I've always felt it shouldn't be saved for just BF.Even during my hiatus from GottaDeal, I felt those not in the know needed to learn about the forum.That shirt was, and still is despite its threadbare state, my Target perimeter perusing shirt.

Brad Posted October 23, 2010 Author Share Posted October 23, 2010 I've always felt it shouldn't be saved for just BF. Of course not, lol. The regular GD shirts should be worn 365 days a year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's my baby! :) I second that idea to bring it back somewhat. Perhaps keep that general idea on the front (maybe 'ELITE SOPPING CREW' instead of 'WHY PAY RETAIL') and have the '.. I probably got your doorbuster' on the back. Let's bring back classic Gottadeal! Now, I'm off to go find a t-shirt size picture frame. Gotta preserve the past.

mgmckny Posted October 23, 2010 Share Posted October 23, 2010 I got mine this afternoon too. I think I was as excited at the highlighter and pen though as the shirt. Taking a class online with a lot of reading, that highlighter will get used!!! Now I just need a shopping bag and one of the string backpacks and I will be a walking billboard.

tinkrbel Posted October 24, 2010 Share Posted October 24, 2010 Now I just need a shopping bag and one of the string backpacks and I will be a walking billboard. I second the need for bags. hopefully they'll be up for grabs next. I really like the grey shirt but I have always been partial to grey/black.

Brad Posted October 24, 2010 Author Share Posted October 24, 2010 Are there still plans to sell shirts? We already had a sale a couple weeks ago. Don't know if we'll have another yet. Depends on how many shirts I have left and how busy things get with BF-related work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gator Pam Posted October 28, 2010 Share Posted October 28, 2010 I just had an idea for a future t-shirt theme, although I admit being mod of the sub-forum may make me biased... ...any chance of "perimeterperusing.com"- or "Perimeter Perusing at Target"-themed shirts in the future? With GottaDeal.com on them as well, of course! From what I've seen, that's a popular sub-forum year-round... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jstluvem Posted October 29, 2010 Share Posted October 29, 2010 I bought the bags ....simply love them !! I get so many compliments on them. I need to buy a shirt to match now....hint...hint... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brad Posted November 1, 2010 Author Share Posted November 1, 2010 Another shipping update: I just got back from the post office where I dropped off all the shirts (and grocery bags) that I had addresses for as of a couple hours ago, so if you've won a shirt and have sent me your address, it's on its way to you :) I'll probably do the next shipment in another week or two, so if you haven't sent me your address yet, yours will be in the next batch.

Brad Posted November 15, 2010 Author Share Posted November 15, 2010 Update: I plan to make another post office run most likely on Monday or Tuesday night, so if you've won a shirt recently, you'd better get your address to my by then or you risk not getting your shirt in time for BF. I will be shipping all shirts won in the last 2 weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
