1384.1 | Really? What store? | WILKIE::OLOUGHLIN | | Fri Nov 11 1988 10:02 | 12 |

Did I read that right?
Walk into Strawberries, sign up for a Yamaha baby grand and they
will give me Windham Hill sampler?
Can my girlfriend get one while I get mine too?

1384.2 | Strawberries Ad | CASV01::WRESINSKI | | Mon Nov 14 1988 15:27 | 20 |
| I don't know what the Globe ad said, but I have an ad in The Phoenix
(November 11) that says "Entire Windham Hill catalogue On Sale"
with no mention of any restrictions.
Strawberries is famous for having miscommunication between the
advertising departments and their stores. A couple of years ago
they featured an ad for a particular double CD for a great price.
I went to the Screwsbury store (like you) and they didn't know anything
about the sale. The manager then said the sale was only for specific
titles as listed on their in-store flyer which he waved in front
of my face. I then waved the Globe ad in _his_ face. He had to
check with the main office who said that, indeed, I was right --
but they didn't have any in stock because they didn't order enough
to distribute to all their stores!
If the sale is still on and if you bought your Windham Hills at
full price, I'd say return them, get the ad and demand the sale
price.

1384.3 | Strawberries/Windham Hill Contest | CASV01::WRESINSKI | | Mon Nov 14 1988 15:30 | 8 |
| Regarding the Strawberries/Windham Hill contest,
You can register for the contest for free (!)
The free W.H. sampler requires the purchase of _any_ (underlined
in the ad) jazz or new age album with entry ballot while supplies
last.

1384.4 | Sale not restricted | MQOFS::LEDOUX | Reserved for Future Use | Tue Nov 15 1988 14:09 | 9 |
| The sales is not restricted to "Boston Area only" as mentioned in
.0 The sale is also valid in Canada (Montreal). But the prices
of the CD are not lowered very much. (About US$15.00)
Remember what they give away is a cassette, NOT a CD, either
you buy 2 Cassette, Vinyl OR CD.
Great New Age, no so great price, for that label...
Vince.
