Apparently it ends on 5th June, no min spend.....limited selection of tops but some great plain tank tops in different colours.
Voucher won't work as it 'cannot be applied at this time'.....but the code is 20FOR20, in case anyone wants to have a go!

I recently visited their store - it was like a bad 1980s nightmare, who wears it, who looks good in it? Plastic shoes, mom jeans, hideous colours, I just didn't get why everyone raves about this stuff. Confused

Clarabum · 01/06/2014 10:49

does this mean all the tops are £20?
I'm unsure how you know what ones?

revolutionarytoad · 01/06/2014 10:57

No it seems to be literally 20 tops for £1 each.....if only the promo code would work!

Blackjack oh man no.....it's not just the 80s stuff! They do these super cute little skater skirts, and these amazing plum cords, and heavy jumpers....you have to be discerning sure. But I'm just in love with their skirts. And this dress: store.americanapparel.net/tank-dress_rsa0327 I have two, in black and white, and they fall perfectly....they're so soft but feel solid at the same time. Anyway. Give them another chance, maybe scout around on ebay if you want to avoid their hideous prices....

I just tried it and it reduced tops to £20, didn't make 20 cost £20 in total. So my order was still hundreds of pounds so I didn't bother :)

revolutionarytoad · 01/06/2014 11:27

really? how bizarre! As far as ploys go....as if people would think oh fuck it, and go for a £300 basket when they were expecting a £20 one! they are a bit weird....but the clothes are cool.

Oh well. Thanks for posting that anyway!

But some of those tops are under £20 anyway! Confused.

I bloody love my American Apparel Disco Pants. One of those things that I tried on on a whim, thinking they'd look awful, thought they looked great, and plonked down over £70 there and then.

Also was going to go for their Easy Jeans - but actually preferred TopShop Joni ones which were quite a bit cheaper.

It says 3 days left ending on 5 june. I wonder if it isn't active yet.

Or whether I am just thinking wishfully.

Blackjackcrossed · 01/06/2014 12:34

I didn't even look at the prices - I was in New York, it was a big store, I assume they had the full range, but I just thought, you'd need to look very cool to begin with to make those clothes look like anything other than frumpy.
