Missed Sale

Unfortunately, because I am currently teaching online during these very unusual times, I missed the announcement re: the Easter sale (my students come before my personal life).
I wrote Matrix/Slitherine to get information as to when the next big sale would be, but no real information was forthcoming.
I just wish the company was a bit more understanding about how difficult it is to balance professional commitments against one's personal life.
Thanks for listening.

That sale is over....you snooze you lose as they say.

But they have done an easter coupon a few years now so that is probably likely in the future to continue....however, the biggest sale on the Slitherine/Matrix Sites tends to be the Xmas one. There also sometimes is a halloween coupon or sale too. Based on prior years there could be deals during the summer too....in the past they discounted a few WW2 games in July for D-Day etc. (not to say they will do that again exactly but, you get the idea).

They seem to be doing more specials on https://www.slitherine.com/inventory/special recently (the specific games vary and change every once and awhile).

There are also the anniversary coupons and the twitch stream Slith Store redeemable game discounts (https://streamelements.com/slitherinegroup/store).

So even if you missed this easter coupon (30% off) there will very likely be more opportunities in the future to get similar deals and discounts.

Also FYI fanatical is having a sale on a bunch of Slitherine stuff at the moment (steam versions only and no boxed option for some games like ordering from the Slitherine site directly but, still some excellent deals there): https://www.fanatical.com/en/search?search=slitherine

Check it out.

Thanks for the information, appreciated. None of the games I wanted are on sale, but I appreciate the information.

I wish I could tell I was snoozing, but busy taking care of students and a sick father...that is my reward!

Maybe they will have another sale soon -- I hope so, money is tight for me and many people.
