Does anyone know if Gowesty usually runs an Easter promotion like the 15% off they just ran in February? _________________ 1981 Westfalia |

Sign up for their newsletter and you will get alerts on their sales as they come up.
I don't know if easter is one of their sale times but the 15% sale was unusual. |

sale days are usually more spaced apart in the calendar, not even sure they have physically recovered from the leap day sale yet _________________ 1991 Westy auto w/ Peloquin TBD

I doubt they are knocking 15% of the Fox shocks.
I would be surprised if they are making that on them. |

Van Cafe gives 5% every day to active TS members, often times more, this from the last "Yet Another Go Westy Sale Thread".
Don't get me wrong, I am getting ready to drop a few duckets here really soon. _________________ Happiness=Portland, Oregon in the rearview mirror! |

How does one take advantage of this 5% off with Van-cafe? I tracked down the forum but it wasn't really clear...
