So here's the story. I've worked 18 years for the same company where the average person quits after 3 1/2 years. I was laid off at the end of July along with all the management level programmers in my region ( I wish the folks I supervised well without all their teachers and mentors).
With that background, I talked to my wife and instead of trying to find another job working for the "man" I'd like to try and run Impact! full time. She gave me a money goal to hit in August that would prove to her it might work and keep me from buying new suits and hitting the interviews to find a new day job.
Impact! is 1000 GBP away from the goal my wife gave me with 5 days left in August. So to help get there, Impact! is having a Freedom Sale (my freedom from the day job). 25% off virtually all pewter figures that Impact! created and produces. This sale will only last until we hit the 1000 GBP goal so act fast to make sure you get this.
Impact! has never run a discounted product sale in the 3 1/2 years we've been open so this is a currently unique opportunity to save some of your hard earned cash and help me get the spouse's approval to enter the gaming industry full time.
Thanks in advance for any support and orders you make during the very limited time sale!

Sorry ... need to add this ... the prices in the store have ALREADY been discounted 25% to make it easy for you to order.
I updated the website last week so that I can change prices very quickly now (including ... updating the site twice a month to keep all the prices up to date on currency translations).
Is there the quantity of what I have send you included?
Not at this time. That amount doesn't reflect that. I have a feeling the amount you sent will be awesome to cover Impact! expenses for this week which were going to be an setback to the goal. I'm now assuming your transfer will cover expenses for the week so the goal can continue to crank without modification.
The statement of the goal was not as precise as it could be. Mrs. Anders more set a goal of profit for Impact! for the month rather than sales. But at this point we are pretty good for casting costs for the month so sales = profit pretty much works. Postage is the only expense that really needs covered and your transfer Mephisto should solve that.
Only a smallish order - literally, considering what I've ordered - but I've put in an order too. With a little bit of tweaking, this new stuff and some stuff I already had nearly finished I think I unexpectedly have a complete new team :)
We've hit the goal ... as a thank you to everyone who really wanted to get in but have not yet ... the sale will run until the 10 pm GMT - 5 today and then its over.
I also had some folks misunderstand and think that this might happen at the end of every month. It won't. This was a one time sale. And I really thank everyone who participated.
Wonders if now that Galak has all this free time and the rules are going to be set to LRB 6 for a while if the PBEM Tool will get a much needed update.
