BOGO Updated 7/7/2009

Interesting that so many people complain about the BOGO page not being updated, but no one seems to notice when it is.
For anyone interested, it does have some new items and some others have been removed.

I saw and need that. I was looking to get a gallon. Now it's cheaper to get 4 through BOGO(I guess it would be buy 2 get 2).

Another benefit to buying 4 is getting the 32 oz. measuring/dispensing bottles as part of the deal.
I even purchased some bottles of that type from U.S. Plastics.
I buy many of my products in gallon sizes because of the cost savings and those bottles work great when measuring for dilution.
I keep lots of products in them.
Meguiar's APC, Meguiar's Glass Cleaner Concentrate, Meguiar's Gold Class Shampoo, Optimum ONR, Detailer's Pride RW&G, Poorboy's APC, and of course Micro-Restore.

Nice stuff! Thanks for bringing that to my attention, Charles.

Is it just me or are the BOGO's either on Dead Stock, Slow Movers or in the case of Spray Detailes - ones that are already twice the price of the market competitors?

It's just you.

I always look to the BOGO's for deals on products I use. Most of my orders have at least one BOGO.

BenzDetailer, that's not always the case.

Charles, are you going to be picking anything up? The DP Interior Surface Protectant looks tempting!

What's awesome about the BOGO is that you're not limited to Buy ONE Get ONE Free. If you order 1, you get 2. If you order 2, you get 4. If you order 8, you get 16. No limit, as long as you're not planning to resell the items.

There's no question that many sale items, BOGO or others are to reduce inventory of some products. That's a fairly standard part of the way business is done.
Many times the products are very useful, though.

That was a litle harsh on my part and I apologize to BenzDetailer for that. I was going to do it in a PM, but decided it should be on the forum.

While I have no record of what has been on the BOGO, I'm pretty sure I remember some pretty popular products being on the BOGO page. Opti-Seal, Cobra Bone, Cobra MF towels, Micro-Restore, The new DP RW&G, Pinnacle Souveran, Signature, Fusion, Crystal Mist are a few that come to mind, but obviously are not all.

Emile, I do check the BOGO page regularly, but I have so many products I am happy with, I usually try hard to refrain from the temptation to buy more. Right now, I'm just waiting for the DP RW&G to come around again. Truthfully, I think I could go close to a year without buying more products and still have stuff on hand.

It is almost unbelievable, the number of really good car care items that are avaiable to us. My problem is not one of finding a product for a job, but rather which of several I should use. When I read of some of the difficulties people outside of the U.S. have in finding good products at a reasonable price, I appreciate what I have even more.
