    I am a Craftsy member but didn't get the email. When I sign in, I don't see anything about a sale, and the class prices are still showing from 29.99 - 59.99. I would really like to take a few of thes classes-- particularly the quilting on a small machine.

    Anyone have a link or help to offer on getting the sale price?

    Thanks!

    This is exactly my situation too. I keep all my emails and don't have one from them with this link. And it shows $29.99-59.99 pricing on the site.

    I received the email so had a direct link. To help JamieQ and Mama02011, I typed craftsy.com into the address bar and my computer automatically signs me in to the site. So, I tried my husband's computer, logged in and the site does NOT show the sale prices. I tried several times with no luck even though the site recognized me as being signed in. I didn't see a "Contact Us" link on the site but the email I received listed this phone number. Maybe you can get help by calling, especially since you are members of Craftsy. Good luck!

    If you go to archives and scroll down the links and resources section, there are several posts and links for the 14.99 classes. Hurry, I think it's only good thru Saturday.

    Well, I emailed Craftsy's customer service and got this response:

    Thanks so much for your interest in Craftsy! Unfortunately the offer your friend received/you saw posted on the blog was an extremely limited offer we sent out only to members who had been with us for a while who hadn't yet enrolled in a course to let them have the chance to experience a Craftsy course for an extremely low discount. This offer expires in a week and only applies for them.

    They sent me a code for One class at $25.

    I'm now a LOT less interested in taking a class from them than I was before!

    I'm doing the free bom. Good information. Haven't bought one yet but think they would be good.

    I got that same exact email JamieQ! Fortunately, I had already utilized the archive link here and gotten my 2 classes. So the joke, I guess, is on them!

    I love the Craftsy classes! I like the fact that I can view the lessons as often as I need to. While I don't particularly like the blocks that we have made in the free Block of the Month classes, I have learned so much from making the blocks. I would never have tried English paper piecing; but a after making this month's blocks, I really like that technique. I sign up for the classes when they are on sale and I really think they are worth it for me.

    Well, they've apparently closed that loophole now too.

    Am I the only one who thinks telling potential customers outright that they have somewhat arbitrarily been excluded from a special offer is dreadful PR? If I were in their shoes, I would just send the link to the few people who bothered to Iinquire and increase my sales instead of risking I'll feelings. So some people woul pay $15 instead of $59- they'd probably sign up for classes they would otherwise have passed on.

    I will probably direct my business elsewhere now.
