I never was one to carry around pictures of my children when they were little. And I didn’t search for opportunities to describe how great their accomplishments were as the years rolled by. Even today, when both my sons are in their thirties, I don’t think I’m a particular braggart.
But I do want to share something now.
My younger son, Keith, and his partner, Chris, started an online retail store a few years back; and it is finally turning the corner from red to black. In fact, it’s taking whole city blocks in stride. It’s called fredflare.com and if you want to see what a great retail web site looks like, you should visit it. I’ll even give you an incentive.
Fredflare.com is initiating a program called “Friends & Family” whereby members of the aforementioned groups have a special code. If they give this code to others, those people can buy products from fredflare.com at twenty-five percent off between now and Monday, April 18.
Fredflare.com’s target audience is primarily the fifteen to thirty-something female; and I think the store has its customer identified hands-down. But even if you, personally, are not in that age group, you probably know someone who is. Or you probably remember back then. It’s all about nostalgia.
Ever wanted the recipe for Dinosaur Soup as described by Ethan, age three-and-a-half? Or wondered if paper dolls still exist? Or wanted honest-to-goodness recipes for scrumptious cupcakes? Then fredflare.com is your kind of place.
So I’m revealing my secret code in the hope you’ll visit my son’s company and possibly buy something. My code is anne.0405 and you enter it at check-out for your discount. Just remember to tell them Mom sent you.
