WTSO Brings Back Acclaimed Cheapskate Marathon
The online flash site is celebrating its 13th birthday by re-introducing a unique shopping format.
PENNSAUKEN, N.J., July 17, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Online wine-buying platform WTSO is hosting another round of its coveted Cheapskate Marathon sale, a crowd favorite among customers, on August 6, 2019 from 7am - 12am. The popular promotion is being held in celebration of WTSO's 13 year anniversary, which will be observed throughout the entire month of July.
The Cheapskate Marathon was introduced by WTSO in 2010, just four years after the company first opened its doors. Since the introduction, many other online wine platforms have tested out similar sales — but few of those promotions are nearly as large as the original WTSO marathon.
The event, like other WTSO marathons, offers a new featured bottle of wine every 15 minutes or less — as opposed to the everyday shopping format, which spotlights a new bottle every eight hours. But the Cheapskate Marathon, specifically, offers low-priced bottles from $8.99 to $19.99.
The marathon will feature a variety of red, white, and sparkling options for customers to fill their wine fridges with and stock up for the rest of the summer. And while customers typically have access to about 15-20 wines a day, this marathon gives shoppers even more opportunities to find a delicious and affordable bottle. With over 100 different types of wine available throughout the day, customers are bound to find at least a few bottles that fit into their favorite brand, wine region, grape, flavors, and more.
This type of sale incentivises customers to visit the website continuously throughout the day. Unlike more recent marathons that have been shortened to a "mini marathon" time frame of eight hours from 10am - 6pm, this marathon will keep going for 17 hours on the Tuesday of the event. The more times visitors check in throughout the day, the more chances they will have to get their hands on discounted bottles of wine.
With this sale, as well as other marathons, more is merrier. But the Cheapskate Marathon, specifically, makes it very simple to stock up on a fair share of bottles at a special price. Customers who purchase four bottles or more will receive free shipping with their order. And the more bottles that an individual buys, the more wines they'll have in their personal online cellar — a feature that allows WTSO members to re-order any available bottle they've purchased in the past regardless of the website's current offers.
Wine lovers are encouraged to celebrate WTSO's 13th anniversary by participating in this semi-annual event on August 6. 2019. All orders ship August 12. For more information about the Cheapskate Marathon, interested parties can contact the company's customer service team at 866-957-2795 or wines(at)wtso.com.
