Roundup 26/6/12: A Busy Week

Hello! How's it going? We hope you're well. It's been all go here at ReRetail Towers. Although, not all of it due to work (we'll get to that later...).



So, what's been happening with us? Well, we've had another delivery from Makedo and as a ReRetial first we will, later this week, begin stocking the Makedo Kit for Three.

The Kit for Three comes with 170 re-usable parts (including 74 pins, 74 clips, 20 lock-hindges, and 2 of Makedo's amazingly useful safe-saws) and is a must for larger projects (or bigger groups).


And now on to the other ReRetail news. It has come to our* attention that recently one half of the ReRetail Team has discovered the concept of 'love', and decided to celebrate this discovery by wearing a white dress and prancing around a castle for a day. The planning of this event caused a level of excitement not before seen in the ReRetail office.

She was very excited, is what i'm trying to say.
"But Matt!" I hear you say, "this is a joyous occasion, why all the words?". Well, dear reader, what comes with a wedding? A honeymoon, of course. And for Kate's honeymoon she's decided to jet off half-way around the world for four weeks. Leaving me alone to man the fort.  So, congratulations to the happy couple! We* wish you all the best and hope that you come back to work soon!

That's all from us (erm... me), see you next time for the Roundup! Remember you can use the code LONDON2012 to get 20.12% off of all items in store until the end of the olympics!

Roundup 14/06/12: Elephants, Bags and Cookies


Hello again! Hope you're all watching the journey of the Olympic flame. There's a simmering excitement here in ReRetail towers, it seems that the flame will be passing fight in front of Kate's house (i guess some people get all the luck). Until then, we're keeping a close eye on Flamewatch 2012. Remember, you can still get 20.12% off of all of our items using the code LONDON2012.

 We've got something cool to show you this week, if you're reading from the top down, you've probably already guessed what it is (if you're reading from the bottom up, try not to spoil the ending from everyone else).

Because we're such big fans of the Button Bag Craft Kits, we've recently got in a set of their Jungle Jumbo Elephants but you've got to be quick! This design is part of a limited run and once we've ran out of stock, they're gone!


Also, some more news regarding our reusable shopping bag giveaway. We've decided to extend the length of the promotion into infinity!

Well, not quite. But after some serious negotiation (we wore ties and everything!) we've been permitted to allocate a larger amount of our stock of reusable shopping bags to use as gifts. What that means to you is that all purchases through our webstore will come with a free bag! Whilst stocks last because, once again, when they're gone, they're gone.


It seems that, since our last update, cookies on the internet have become a serious talking point. So we decided to find some internet cookies and work out what it was all about.  What we found was a was a large amount of lawyer-words. But we muddled on.

In short, ReRetail Ltd does not gather any information from cookies but the software we use to power our online store (Zencart) does utilise cookies to aid with shopping, for more information on how Zencart uses cookies, please click here. We're trying to sort it so our website has an opt in/out notification but, at the time of writing, there isn't a working Zencart Addon available.


Phew, all that talk of cookies is making me hungry, so we'll see you next time!
