Gymboree FAQ (ask a Gymboree Manager) - Page 4

Have you heard any complaints about the PAP? When I went to my store the coupon I got had already been opened. When I told the sales associate, she gave me a new one and it was the same. Later a lady came in and the sales associate said she had saved her a 30% coupon. A friend of mine told me that a friend of hers (that works at gymboree "found" her a 50% coupon). Seems associates were pre-peeling the coupons and designating who they gave what percentage-off coupons too. Bummer, when you don't have a connection in the store. Maybe they could do a scratch off next time so everyone actually gets a chance to get a one of the higher discounts.

Tell that to gymbolistens.com

Definitely tell that story on GymboreeListens.com so the District and Regional Managers are aware.

That is not only not cool or fair to other customers, it may also be a violation of state laws, depending on which you're in. It is certainly unethical at the least.

Thank you so much. I just filled out the info @ GymboreeListens as you suggested.

Oh that would really upset me considering how much money I spend there!! The only way I can shop there is if I have a coupon or shop the clearance! What a bummer!

Hi, I was wondering if we can use merchandise credits with the regular store coupons. I know you cant use them with gymbucks. Also, what is the actual policy on using merch. credits to buy gift cards? Some stores let me, others act like the computer wont even let them do it. Lies....lol

Will the stores call me when new lines come in if I ask?

missgymbo · 06-30-2008, 11:40:28 PM

That's up to each store. The more reliable way to keep up with new lines is to sign up for the emails (Gymboree.com, bottom right corner), or through this board.
