Comment on Animal Cruelty + Sex = Animal Rights? by vancouverbeerblog.com

Great read. I never knew Peta kills off 95% of the animals they take in or even any. With that in mind, the time, money and “energy” they put in their adds seems really silly

Having been off the planet for the last 2 weeks I am just now catching up on my back issues of the Smorgasboard. And as always, Dear Sarah Wong- I love you. For real. This article is why we are friends.

Hey S,
I completely agree with you! I have especially noticed this shopping in the states at the outlet shops. But i have also noticed there seems to be a cycle to the exclusivity. While our old time favourites (ala mini eggs) cannot be replaced, new brands in fashion are always becoming the new exclusive. As a brand like coach becomes more available to the masses, those that value exclusivity might move on to a new, more exclusive brand.

Another thought came to mind: in these economic times, these brands are probably making their products more available to the masses because they can’t afford to stay exclusive. People just aren’t spending the same money on luxuries anymore.

That’s my 2 cents!

There was one for Groosters where it offered 50% off Moroccanoil for a large bottle. I was sadden I missed the opportunity $20 for a large bottle. For me that was the best offer they have had so far.
