Make sure you head to the right stores.  Some stores are not part of this promotion.  Or just order online.

The deals don’t seem to be as good as last year’s sale.  Maybe they will offer deeper discounts in January.

  @ Abercrombie

They added more stores to the list that the promotion does not apply.

Offer valid on all purchases exceeding $100 in Abercrombie stores located in North America, excluding the following: the Flagship store on 5th Avenue in New York, Mall at Millenia in Orlando FL, Fashion Show in Las Vegas NV, South Street Seaport in New York NY, The Forum at Caesar’s in Las Vegas NV, Aventura in Aventura FL, Water Tower in Chicago IL, Faneuil Hall in Boston MA, San Francisco Centre in San Francisco CA, Florida Mall in Orlando FL, Ala Moana in Honolulu HI, and The Grove at Farmers Market in Los Angeles CA.

12/11/09  Update:   More restrictions on this promotion.  Read here.

The catch is the offer is in the U.S. stores only.  With every $100 purchase, receive a $25 gift card.

Another catch is the promotional gift card expires on 1/31/2010.  So they are good for you to go back after Christmas to get some bargain items for yourselves.

The fine print:

*Offer valid on all purchases exceeding $100 in Abercrombie stores located in North America, excluding the Flagship store on 5th Avenue in New York and stores located in Hawaii. Promotional gift cards expire on 1/30/2010. Not valid on previous purchases, gift card purchases, or online at Abercrombie.com. Restrictions on bulk purchases may apply. Not redeemable for cash or store credit. Not applicable with employee discount. Other restrictions may apply.*

This one smells sweet for me.  It reminds me of the Black Walnut eau de Toilette from Banana Republic.  In contrast to the Abercrombie Fierce Cologne, which is more fun for a good night out, Colden is more mature and sophisticated.

Which one lasts the longest?  Fierce is the winner.  Colden comes in second.  41 the third.

Fierce is just perfect for evenings.  Colden can be great for work during the day because it is sophisticated.  It is perfect for a romantic date as well because it is sweet.
