Zen Sale - Poor Timing

Why do PW insist on having the ZEN sale on the final weekend of the month? Speaking from someone that works in retail and enjoys a good night out, people generally have the most disposable income on the first weekend of the month as they would most likely have been paid....

Just a thought

    That sounds like they know exactly what they're doing, and have it set up perfectly.

    By holding the sale when people have the least disposable income, they're trying to get those who didn't and wouldn't buy Zen even when they had the most disposable income, to buy some Zen.

    Considering that Mortgages are usually due at the biginning of the month. I never have disposable income still the last paycheck of the month.

    Today's payday for me, so it seems like a good day for a sale to me.

    It's called "saving some money"... you should try it sometime.

    Or they're trying to cool off the dil market a little before the release of the Pilot ships next week.

    And other people have other times when money is better. So what?

    But if this helps...there is ALWAYS a zen sale near the end of May. Save your early May moolah for a couple of weeks to get that zen sale.

    Boom

    Don't suppose it ever occurred to you that if you want to buy Zen and these sales fall on end of the month, then perhaps cut back a bit on the end of month festivities a bit?

    Just a thought. :)

    You Vulcans and your logic... :)
