Second Annual Black Friday Sale – November 27th, 2009
It was a big hit last year, so it’s back again… on Friday, November 27th, Rogues Gallery will be having a special one-day “Black Friday” sale for those who are braving the crowds to get their holiday shopping done early.
From the time we open (10 AM) until the time we close (Midnight) on Friday, November 27th, any purchase you make will also earn you bonus holiday gift certificates. For every $25 you spend, you’ll get $5 on a gift certificate, and you can break those up into individual $5 gift certificates, one big gift certificate with the whole amount or any other combination you choose. So for example, if you spend $100, you’ll get $20 in our special holiday gift certificates.
So come on in and get a little extra bang for your holiday-shopping buck. Or pick up something for yourself and get some bonus money to give away as gifts. But make sure and stop in for this one-day event!
Boring Rules Stuff: Just like our regular gift certificates, these have no expiration date, and can be used for anything in the store. We’ll be using these throughout the holiday season. They cannot be used on the day of purchase, but can be used as early as Saturday, November 28th.
The amount used to calculate bonus gift certificates is the pre-tax value of merchandise (within reason – a $24.99 or $24.95 item will get you the $5 gift certificate). $5 is given for each full $25, not a fraction thereof.
Chew Trade Paperback Release Party – December 5th!
Don’t miss our biggest event of the year, the Chew trade paperback release party, coming this Saturday, December 5th! Chew is one of the most buzzed-about new comics this year, and Rogues Gallery is throwing a party to celebrate the release of the trade paperback with writer John Layman and artist Rob Guillory signing the new Chew trade paperback. We’re the only store on the Chew mini-tour list that will have the full creative team in attendance.
Tony Chu is a cop with a secret. A weird secret. Tony Chu is Cibopathic, which means he gets psychic impressions from whatever he eats. It also means he’s a hell of a detective, as long as he doesn’t mind nibbling on the corpse of a murder victim to figure out whodunit, and why. It`s a dirty job, and Tony has to eat terrible things in the name of justice. And if that wasn`t bad enough, the government has figured out Tony Chu`s secret. They have plans for him… whether he likes it or not. Presenting a twisted new series about cops, crooks, cooks, cannibals and clairvoyants, written by JOHN LAYMAN (Marvel Zombies vs. Army of Darkness, House of M: Fantastic Four and PUFFED) with mind-blowing art by ROB GUILLORY.
The party will start at 7:00 PM and continue until close, and everyone in attendance will be able to munch down on snacks from the Yakuza speakeasy, try their hand at the FDA agent training shooting gallery for prizes (including a rare first printing of the first issue!) or just indulge their inner cibopath by taking a bite out of our custom cake. And of course, folks can chat with the creative team of this new smash-hit series and pick up the first trade or get their issues of the series signed.
