F.A.Q.
Q: Do I need to register in advance, or can I just show up?
A: You must register at least 24 hours in advance to ensure your chosen class will run, and that there’s space for you in class. Some classes fill very quickly, so if you wait until the last minute to register, there may not be space available!
Q: How does registration work?
A: Once you register, please arrive on time and prepared for class. If you need to reschedule your reservation, just give us a call 48 hours before your scheduled class and we can transfer you to another date for that class. If you need time to think about it we can issue you a refund or store credit for the fee you paid to Groupon. If you cancel at the last minute or do not call or do not show up for class your Groupon will only be good for what you paid for it. The “deal” will be forfeited but you can still use the Groupon at face value. (what you paid to Groupon) Please turn off your cell phone before class begins.
Q: The Groupon says it expires in May, but I thought they didn’t expire. What’s the deal with that?
A: While the amount you’ve spent on the Groupon doesn’t expire, the deal expires on May 15. So, if you don’t redeem it by that date, it’s only worth $25.00 towards classes or merchandise, not $50.00. You don’t lose your money, but you don’t get the deal if you don’t redeem your Groupon by the expiration date.
Q: I registered for a class but last minute can’t make that day. What do I do?
A: Just give us a call 48 hours before your scheduled class and we can transfer you to another date for that class. If you need time to think about it we can issue you a refund or store credit for the fee you paid to Groupon. If you cancel at the last minute or do not call or do not show up for class your Groupon will only be good for what you paid for it. The “deal” will be forfeited but you can still use the Groupon at face value. (what you paid to Groupon)
Q: I’m going to run late to class. What should I do?
A: Because we can’t make the other students wait for latecomers, please call us at (708) 366-8318 as soon as you know you might be late. More than 15 minutes late, it’s at the teacher’s discretion to admit you to class. After 30 minutes, you are considered no-call, no-show and you will lose the “deal” and the Groupon will be worth face value ($25).
Q: Can I use this Groupon towards a different class?
A: The “deal” is only for either the Beading Bootcamp: Basic Training, or Beading Bootcamp: Advanced Basic Training. You can use the $25 that you paid for the Groupon to apply to a different class but it’s only worth $25.
Q: I bought a Groupon and got one as a gift. Can I use them both on the same class?
A: We can only accept one Groupon per person per class.
Q: I’d like to buy a Groupon for my kids/grandkids. Can I?
A: Our classes are intended for anyone 12 and up. We do parties for younger kids, but parties are not included in this Groupon offer.
Q: I signed up for a class, and my friend might be interested. Can I bring her to watch?
A: Please do not bring unregistered guests or children with you to class. We will not admit anyone who has not paid for class, and no refunds will be given. However, if your friend would like to register directly with us in advance and attend with you, we’d be happy to accommodate them as long as space allows.
Q: I have a friend who wants to come with me but didn’t buy the Groupon. Can she get the same price I paid for the Groupon?
A: No. Groupons are a very special offer, and as such, we cannot extend that price outside of the Groupon sales.
Q: Will you be running another Groupon offer?
A: Hopefully, YES! As far as the when, we aren’t sure yet. Make sure you join the Groupon community so you don’t miss out!
Q: I don’t like/want/need to take the Beading Bootcamps. Can I just use my Groupon for merchandise?
A: No, the Groupon is only valid for The Beading Bootcamp class registrations and is not transferable to merchandise credit. On the upside, your Groupon is valid for some time and our class schedule changes every few months. I’m sure we can find something fun for you by then!
Q: I purchased a Groupon for your sister store Briolette Beads, but would rather redeem it at your location. Can I do that?
A: Sorry, no. While we are sister stores, the Groupon offer is not interchangeable between the two stores. Please do come and visit us both! Each store has a different selection of beads, classes, and more to wow you with!
Q: I just completed my first class. What next?
A: We definitely don’t want you to be a stranger. If this was your first experience beading, it’s easy to get overwhelmed with choices. Our staff is here to help if you want to design in the store, and we have a wide variety of classes for you to choose from as a great next step in beading! Come to one of our weekly free classes. You are always welcome to come in be creative, regardless of your craft!
