Courts says fabulous deals await FNO shoppers
BEING one of the first companies to recognise the potential of participating in the Jamaica Observer’s celebration of Fashion’s Night Out (FNO) three years ago, Courts had no hesitation in continuing its sponsorship of the five-hour shopping frenzy.
And after experiencing a boost in sales over the last two years, the furniture and appliance giant says it will give consumers unbeatable deals tomorrow, starting at 5:00 pm.
“Courts shoppers will be delighted to know that one of their favourite offers will be available for FNO — buy one get 10% off 36 months’ credit; buy two get 25% off 36 months’ credit; nothing down on 30 – 36 months’ credit, plus 5% off cash purchases. This, however, does not apply to computers and accessories and mobile phones,” said Regional Manager Dianne Dunstan.
“As our theme is ‘Always Ashley’, customers can also expect some fabulous deals on the exquisite Ashley line,” she said. “We urge everyone to come out early as we have a fashionable gift for the first 15 shoppers after 5:00 pm.”
Dunstan described FNO as a unique, fun and exciting shopping event that brings Jamaicans out of their homes for a night of togetherness as in a traditional ‘grand market’ setting.
“We enjoy being a part of that because Courts loves family,” said Dunstan.
Manager of the Constant Spring Branch, Marjorie Daniels, was ecstatic in recalling the shopping experience at her location last year. “A sea of people could be seen both inside and outside the store. Up to about 9:30 pm, there were at least 100 people inside the store at any given time either browsing or patiently awaiting their turn to be served because our offers were so great!” she said.
“As a store manager, I must say the timing was great because this is when there’s a typical drop in business before the Christmas rush,” Daniels said, adding that the event gave her the boost she needed to make her target.
