Sweet that gives me hope. Fingers crossed they do it again! I just need to purchase one prior to the 31st to be eligible for the $200 Miller rebate.

While I'm not privy to Zoro's marketing practices, being in the digital marketing/ecommerce industry since early dot com days, a customer-specific offer are often used as an incentive to re-engage a high valued customer. They would set criteria as to lifetime value and purchase frequency, and utilize promotional offer to those targeted customers to get them to purchase again.
While they will take the sale from anyone (even low margin, value-seekers like me) they are targeting their higher valued customers.

Alternatively, offering an across the board % off helps to convert price-sensitive new customers as an customer acquisition play. Forums like this and other Social Media channels help with their effective reach.

I did buy some $200 and $300 dollar items from them. Some were for me and others for friends that we grouped to get the 30% off. Worked great for all.

Good luck with that. They uses the factory packaging (Durham's) for shipping which is pretty flimsy. Mine arrived dented and when I contacted them about it, they sent another unit out which also got dented as well :willy_nil Ended up accepting a credit from them.



They told me there is no way for them to contact their warehouse personnel and tell them how to pack/ship certain orders :rolleyes:

I got lucky, all delivered, no damage...it's a Christmas miracle!

This confirms my hunch about Zoro and others. I suspect my cumulative margin when factoring in returns and shipping damage is probably a negative number which explains the absence of postcards and email incentives.

Could be. It all varies on the sophistication of their marketing dept, email platform and their ability to mine their own customer purchase data.

15% off $150. Good thru 12/30. One time use.

"DECF0B7864"

Don't know if that's a zero or the letter O. Good luck.

Here is the one time use code ZORO sent me, DECF0DR7P0 I am not going to use it.
Good for 15% off minimum of $150. Don't know if those are zeroes or letter O.
Hope someone can use it

Just because I got a code today, doesn't mean you'll get one too. It seems to me that they send them randomly. There are days that others get codes and I do not.

Dang, too late on that one above. Could use a 25% off if nobody's going to use theirs? Shoot me a pm, have a $1000 order waiting....nothing spectacular though.
Thanks

If somebody has a 25% off that they're not going to use, send it my way! I have almost $400 of stuff in my cart that I don't need but definitely want

I noticed several people have been looking for coupon codes recently. As a reminder, during the Black Friday and Cyber Monday sales they just had, Zoro sent out thank you cards in the shipping boxes (as long as the boxes weren't drop shipped directly from a manufacturer). Those thank you cards have unique coupon codes in them for 20% off 150+ orders placed between January 4-8. That might help a few of you out.

Other than the thank you card codes, the only thing I know about coming up soon is the code SNOWBALL which will be good for $40 off a $200 plus order (valid on January 13th only). Notice however that this is a dollar value coupon not a percentage off coupon, so this coupon only really works well for orders just over $200.

Thanks for the info. I'm in it to wait for another high percentage sale. I've got 1800 in my cart for the right opportunity.

I took advantage of Zoro's Free Shipping (No Minimum) deal during the post-Black Friday / Cyber Monday / Green Monday Rush. I wonder if I will get a coupon in the mail as well. Their Shipping Speed and Packaging was extraordinarily well. :D

I have 2 Zoro coupons but only need one. The second one MIGHT be available too and if it is I will post up. Don't ask for it at this time.

The one I am for sure not going to use is a 20% off $150 or more January 4th-8th only. First to PM me gets it.

I ran across this forum and thread, and then zoro.. What an awesome website, and now looking for excuse to shop zoro :)

Could always use more storage in shop. Will keep eye for any you kind types sharing codes.

Edit, found what I want. Courier mailbox; twice I've had theft of UPS packages left at front door.

http://www.zoro.com/salsbury-industries-courier-box-white-4975wht/i/G7424365/

Could probably have a welding shop make one for way less. Just a thought. So I downloaded the zoro pakkit game on my phone and its a way to earn promo codes! Kind of an interesting marketing approach. First one is 10% off, took about 5 minutes to earn. I'll update when I reach next code.

20 more minutes and got to the second code, 15% off

Wow I didn't know they had that. Sadly it's not for Windows Phone but I found my android phone I use as a camera remote and I'm in business! Time to win me a M12 Bandsaw.

So what is everyone else's best? I made it to Round 7 but did not come close to beating it and got 3465 points. This cheap android phone kinda hitches sometimes and the game freezes for a second so on the fast levels that's a big problem.

That game is pretty cool. I got playing it. Level 5-6 gets really fast!

45,000 points for next code (I'm assuming 20%) I wonder what the next step is after

If anyone needs Zoro 20% off codes.

I got these included in my most recent shipment. I have no need of them.
NOTE: THEY ARE GOOD ONLY FROM 4-JAN TO 8-JAN 2016.

Not sure why they sent me 2.
