What  a  Character!

Monthly Specials

Every month, we offer a special discount on some type or category of item.  The items featured in our specials vary from month to month and are not planned in advance.  Check this page each month to find out what is featured for a sale at that time.  In order to qualify for the monthly special, you must (1) mention the discount at the time you make your initial inquiry and place your order, and (2) have your payment postmarked anytime within the month that the special is offered.  It's that simple!

 

JUNE 2013

Brides . . . grooms . . . June is the month of weddings.  Celebrating that lovely expression of happiness, throughout the month of June, we will offer 15% discounts on all characters that are married.  As an added bonus, if you tell us the name of the character's spouse, we'll increase that discount to 20% for you.  Ahhhh, springtime, love is in the air!

 

MAY 2013

In honor of Mother's Day, throughout the month of May 2013, we will offer 20% discounts on all characters that are mothers.  Just to go along with that, we'll also offer 10% discounts on all female characters that happen not to be mothers.  Happy Mother's Day, one and all!

 

APRIL 2013

This month marks the 46th birthday of the Peanuts character Woodstock, who first appeared in the comic strip on April 4, 1967.  He's lookin' pretty good for such an ol' bird!  As a "happy birthday" to Woodstock, throughout the month of April 2013, we will offer 20% discounts on all merchandise featuring Woodstock.  With that kind of discount, his merchandise just might fly off our shelves this month!

 

MARCH 2013

As hard as it may be to believe, this month marks the 78th birthday/anniversary of Porky Pig, who first appeared in the March 9, 1935 release of Warner Brothers' cartoon I Haven't Got a Hat.  This month, we'll offer 15% discounts on all Porky Pig items in our inventory.  If the item you select happens to feature Porky along with any of his fellow Looney Tunes friends, we will increase the discount to 20% for you.  Short and sweet, that's this month's special, and to quote Porky himself:  Th-th-th-that's all folks!

 

FEBRUARY 2013

Ahhhh, the month of love is upon us, with Valentine's Day falling midway through this month.  Fans of love that we are, and eternal romantics-at-heart that we can be (well, sometimes anyway), we here at  What  a  Character!  thought that we would offer our fellow romance lovers a nice discount this month.  All items in our inventory featuring themes of love or romance will be eligible for a 15% discount.  As our friend, Pepe LePew, just might say:  L'amour . . . toujours!

 

JANUARY 2013

Happy new year, one and all!  It has been quite some time since we last offered a discount on Walter Lantz character merchandise, so we thought that we would correct this situation this month.  Throughout the month of January, all Walter Lantz cartoon character items--which include such classics as Woody Woodpecker, Oswald, Chilly Willy, among other "oldies but goodies"--will be eligible for a 15% discount.  If the item that you are purchasing happens to include more than one of the Walter Lantz characters, we will "up" that discount to 20% for you.

 

DECEMBER 2012

With the end of the year fast approaching, we thought that it might be good to toast a fond (?!) farewell to 2012 and a fonder greeting to the beginning of 2013.  With that in mind, throughout the month of December, we will be offering a 15% discount on all drinking vessels, such as glasses, mugs, steins, and so forth.  So here's an e-toast to hoping that 2012 ends on a nice note for all of you, and that 2013 brings fantastic things to us all!

 

OCTOBER / NOVEMBER 2012

It's hard for both of us to believe, but in November, What  a  Character!  will be celebrating its 15th anniversary in business.  Happy anniversary to us!  In recognition of our 15 years selling all kinds of neato cool, nifty, fun goodies and collectibles to all of you collectors and gift-givers out there, we will offer a 15% discount on all items whose inventory numbers contain a 15 somewhere in them OR whose inventory numbers' digits add up to 15 or any larger multiple of 15.  Thank you to all of you who have made the past 15 years an interesting, enjoyable experience for us here at What  a  Character! 

 

SEPTEMBER 2012

This month, we are offering 15% discounts on all Peanuts character merchandise.  Any item that you purchase that contains three or more of the beloved Peanuts characters will be offered at a 20% discount.  Not bad savings overall, if you ask us; and you could say that the money you save is not, um, uh, er, Peanuts.     :-)

 

AUGUST 2012

It has been so hot for so long in so many parts of the U.S. this summer that we've come to believe that this summer is for the birds!  With that thought in mind, throughout the month of August, we will offer 15% discounts on all items featuring bird characters.  If the item that you wish to purchase happens to feature two or more bird characters on it, we will increase that discount to 20% for you.  Here's to hoping that the rest of this summer just flies by fast!

 

JULY 2012

This month, with both Father's Day to be celebrated and graduations aplenty, we thought that we'd honor dads and grads.  All items featuring characters that are fathers OR that have a graduation-related theme will be eligible for 15% discounts.  Happy Father's Day to all you terrific dads out there; and for all of the grads in our viewing audience, congratulations!
