mitchandalisha Posted September 21, 2006 Posted September 21, 2006 I have no clue if this is the correct place to post this, so please move if needed. I have a Macy's located near me for the first time this year since Macy's opened so many new stores. I am wondering what Macy's does for BF and/or throughout the holidays as in sales and stuff because I would like to know before I begin my shopping! Any ideas of what they do would help!!!
gjedda03 Posted September 21, 2006 Posted September 21, 2006 I was wondering the same thing. I've never had one near me and now have several and was curious about their sales and clearances....and their BF sale if they have one.
love2beurwifey Posted September 21, 2006 Posted September 21, 2006 I was wondering the same thing we just had a macy's grand opening here and they gave out $10.00 gift cards to the first 500 people. So I am wondering if they will do something big for BF
Melissa Posted September 21, 2006 Posted September 21, 2006 Same here. Our Filene's was just converted into a Macy's.
Aaron Posted September 21, 2006 Posted September 21, 2006 Our brand new Rich's converted to Rich's Macys then to Macy's all pretty quick, ha.
christmasangel Posted September 21, 2006 Posted September 21, 2006 Same here in Buffalo- all the Kaufmanns are now Macy's.
bugsette Posted September 21, 2006 Posted September 21, 2006 Kaufmann's use to give out gift cards her now it's a Macy
jadedmomof2 Posted September 22, 2006 Posted September 22, 2006 Same here, Marshall field's just became a Macy's. Haven't gone to the mall since they opened though.
pammk123 Posted September 22, 2006 Posted September 22, 2006 Just went to my first Macy's last weekend. They might be opening one near me so I signed up for their mailing list. I'll post anything good.
Vickie17 Posted September 22, 2006 Posted September 22, 2006 I love Macy's! I was one of the lucky ones that won one of the 500.00 gift cards from Nashville, TN Macy's!
AuntJamelle Posted September 22, 2006 Posted September 22, 2006 Seems like Macy's is taking over! Our L.S. Ayres store just became a Macy's - I was in for the first time yesterday and other than some new department signs hung from the ceiling it looks exactly the same inside. Our Marshall Fields was purchased by Macy's too - but it's still standing empty and closed. I usually avoid the mall on Black Friday - but I never say never!
purplecrush Posted September 22, 2006 Posted September 22, 2006 Wow! Everything is turning into a Macy's!! Our Meier and Franks just turned into a Macy's. I havent been into it, but it will be exciting to see if they do anything for BF. I hope so!
vonnyb Posted September 22, 2006 Posted September 22, 2006 I Love Macy's.I know here they would have coupons in the paper that you could use on Black Friday. Like if you spent $50 you would get $15 off or something like that. Not sure what they will do this year.
sting Posted September 22, 2006 Posted September 22, 2006 Here in VA all our Hetch's got converted to Macy's.
iteachrebs Posted September 23, 2006 Posted September 23, 2006 I always hit Macy's on Black Friday. Like vonnyb said, there are coupons in the paper plus they have door busters. The best part for me is that the clearance is usually an additional percentage off - maybe 50%. Combine the coupons with the additional off clearance and you've got some great deals. I hope it stays the same with so many stores converting to Macy's. The presents under our tree are always clothes so I go to Macy's, Belk, Parisian, stores like that for the clearance deals and the coupons. Santa brings the good stuff!
sanam Posted October 9, 2006 Posted October 9, 2006 last year i went there after their doorbusters finished ... and was sad to see i dint get on the deals... they had some good deals, be sure to get the coupons from the paper... i am sure there will be some good deals...
Rebirth Posted October 9, 2006 Posted October 9, 2006 Carson's here in Chicago, gave out $10 off any purchase. But there are some restrictions. Marshall Field's, now Macy's, gave out cards. You have to bring it to the cashier and they'll scan it to see how much the card is worth. I think the min. was $10.
Uberfemme Posted October 9, 2006 Posted October 9, 2006 They also give an extra amount off if you're one of the early bird customers. "Take an additional blah, blah, blah off housewares," for example. They do a lot of BF ads on Thanksgiving, especially during the airing of the parade. The thing about Macy's, though, is they always have sales. They never stop. They're having a Columbus Day sale right now.
copados1993 Posted October 10, 2006 Posted October 10, 2006 Last year I spent about 300 dollars there on BF. I walked away with about 700.00 worth of stuff! the sale were insane with all the extra discounts. This year we're not going home for Thanksgiving and I won't be able to go this year.
starshine Posted October 10, 2006 Posted October 10, 2006 I was wondering this myself. Our Kaufmanns is now a Macy's I've never even been in a Macy's Will have to see what the ads bring!
Bestbuy7 Posted October 10, 2006 Posted October 10, 2006 15-75% OFF i think every item in the store or majority.
Tara3117 Posted October 11, 2006 Posted October 11, 2006 I do a lot of shopping at Macy's. I know I was able to get a silver bracelet with a heart charm that had a little diamond chip in it for $20 (originally $60 I think), and purse for my sister-in-law and luggage for my parents. If you have the credit card, you can get an extra 10 or 15% off too, which is pretty great. I think they had some kind of special going on too, like "scratch off the box for an extra discount" card or something.
tessies Posted November 2, 2006 Posted November 2, 2006 The Kaufman's in Erie just became a Macy's and they gave $10 gift card to the 1st 500. Maybe something similar? I too, have the Macy's card and just received a few coupons in the mail. Maybe there will be special coupons for BF!
rogue1230 Posted November 2, 2006 Posted November 2, 2006 Macy's I think- usually runs a great whites sale before turkey day- so I have heard, I need a new down comforter so I am keeping my eyes peeled. The new macys in our mail has 3 outer entrances so I don't need to venture into the mall itself if I am not inclined- the parking, now that could be an issue.
luv2shopnc Posted November 2, 2006 Posted November 2, 2006 I'm excited that Macy's finally came to Raleigh, NC. I must admit though, once you've been to the one on 34th street in NY, its not quite the same!!
dswright Posted November 3, 2006 Posted November 3, 2006 Macy's ran MANY 10 off 25 coupons in the local papers last year between Christmas and New Years. Combine that with additional off clearance and wee filled our closets for next to nothing. We were buying the layered tees (t shirt with long sleeves underneath popular with the boys right now), 4 for 15.00 after coupon and discount. Much cheaper than even Wal Mart. Most of these ads were only good on Tues and Wed only, so check your paper daily.
drmad7 Posted November 3, 2006 Posted November 3, 2006 The Kaufman's in Erie just became a Macy's and they gave $10 gift card to the 1st 500. Maybe something similar? I too, have the Macy's card and just received a few coupons in the mail. Maybe there will be special coupons for BF!They just did mystery cards this week (expired today) with discounts from $10 to $1000 or so. They gave out gift cards last year in Columbus, Ohio too.In the past they have had little electronics deals like 7" portable dvd players for $99.00 (when they were much higher) and they had the folding/rolling garment bags for around $19.99. In fact, this was two years ago because my wife and I missed them last year. We had to make the rounds to Kohl's, Home Depot, Meijer's, Target, and Lowe's last year. Columbus has all the shopping places near each other. Of course, it is the location of the very first shopping center in the U.S. At least that is what they told me when I moved here!
mdal Posted November 3, 2006 Posted November 3, 2006 Every year, I buy a bunch of newpapers because they always have coupons for $10.00. There are some exclusions and your purchase must total $10.00 or more. When you combine these with sales you can leave the store with a bunch of stuff paying little or nothing for your purchases. The only thing that can be a pain is that most cashiers will only accept 1 coupon per person, so you will have to get back in line for each purchase unless you find a really nice one like I did last year. Happy shopping!!
Starjm Posted November 8, 2006 Posted November 8, 2006 The $10 off coupons are in the Thanksgiving day paper and they are only good until noon on Black Friday - but also good until noon on Saturday. It is only one per customer, but you can go to different departments or get in line again.
sleepyshopper Posted November 8, 2006 Posted November 8, 2006 I have never shopped Macy's on BF,because we just got a Macy's around here a couple months back, But I have shopped MAcy's numerous time elsewheres and I just love their clearence deals.....They like to slash prices and get rid of things. (unlike some stores that hold their clearence items for months and months.....*whispers wal-mart)
