Who was the one who said "Buy a month for your wife and we will give you one for your girlfriend for free!" Or something like that. Either way, it was funny :)

Valentines Day and tanning never do too well here, people just don't associate the two. Since is coincides we Spring Break we started the week unlimited packages. One week is $15, no limit. It runs until the 15th. Its a nice lat minute sale before the season kicks into full gear.

Unity, does your week unlimited package include all of your beds or just the basic beds?

Just out basic beds, but they can pay the upgrade fee for another bed - per session.

Sounds like a good deal. I might try it out this year and see how it does. Thanks for the ideas!

Maybe I am stupid, but I was thinking--Sweetheart Specials (Buy one Month--get the 2nd Half off for your Sweetheart???!) Does anyone think that makes sense? Going back and forth on that one...I am also going to push Gift Cards for Feb 1st- Feb 14th And run a lotion special on Valentine's Day..Last year I did 25% off and my lotion sales were HIGH!

I am running my regular monthly special but I wanted to do something from 2/11 to 2/14. Maybe I will try a week unlimited special or something.

Week unlimited can do well depending on the demographics. Its a impulse buy for a lot of people. Some will tan every day but most will come three times or even less. But your not giving away an entire month and it may jump-start some to really get serious about tanning.
