PeterMayer.com is joining in on the "Black Friday" excitement, inspired by many of your inquiries regarding bulk discounts for holiday shopping for family, friends and co-workers.
 
This weekend only, November 27-29, we will offer a way to get all of your holiday shopping finished with one phone call.  Our "Goodbye Hello" weekend phone special is a way for you to say "Goodbye" to long lines and crowded stores, and "Hello" to sharing great music this season!
 
We will discount CDs at $12.00 each, and offer a special shipping rate of $15, for a minimum purchase of 30 CDs.  Orders for this weekend special must be placed by calling our toll-free order line:  877-LIT-FLOK (548-3565).  This discount will not be offered via our online shopping cart or at live performances.
 
No need to set the alarm and get to the stores early this weekend to get a great deal.  Relax and do your shopping from the comfort and convenience of your home or office. 
 
Our "Goodbye Hello" weekend hotline will be open from Friday, November 27, 9:00 am, to Sunday, November 29, at 5:00 pm (Eastern).  Mention the "Goodbye Hello" weekend special when calling.  That's 30 CDs + shipping for a total of $375.00 (this is a savings of $165 for 30 CDs, over our internet pricing). We will accept payment by Visa or Mastercard.
 
There's no better gift than music and these new CDs are perfect for everyone on your Christmas, Hanukah, Kwanzaa, Winter Solstice and New Year gift lists! 
 
We look forward to hearing from you this weekend!
