2011 Boston Store Goodwill Sale Starts Wednesday, March 9th
The 2011 Boston Store Million Acts of Goodwill Sale starts on Wednesday, March 9th and runs through Wednesday, March 23rd (the sale has been extended one day, to March 24th).
For each “gently used” item you bring to Boston Store to donate, you’ll receive coupon for 20% off just about any item. (Some items such as cosmetics and fragrences are 15% off). There is no limit on how many coupons you can receive. For instance, donate ten items and you’ll receive ten coupons. Through March 11th, you’ll receive double coupons for each donation – each item you donate will earn you two coupons!
Also, if you register your name, address, phone number, and birth date at the Million Acts of Goodwill website, you will receive a 25% off coupon valid for the duration of the sale. By registering, you’ll also have a chance to win a $100 gift card instantly and be entered in a sweepstakes for a trip to New York to see Live! with Regis & Kelly.
On a related note, Doris Hajewski of the Journal Sentinel recently reported that Boston Store is revising their coupon policy to no longer accept coupons on the deeply discounted Yellow Dot clearance items. The good news is that the new policy doesn’t take effect until after the Goodwill Sale is over and it appears will not prohibit the use of Goodwill Sale coupons for Yellow Dot clearance items in the future.
