Things look to be heating up sales wise for Games Workshop this Black Friday. Come see the latest on both in-store and ONLINE sales!

Local staff at my GW store told me that their would be over 50 bundles available this weekend some online, some in store.

Now we’ve heard about the in store deals using “vouchers” but this is the first hint at something happening at the web cart level online.

Still thought all this chatter seems to line up with the previous rumors about GW’s Black Friday

Via Games Workshop Store Facebooks 

An exciting new opportunity for all of you to earn yourself a £10 voucher, just bring someone down who you think would enjoy our wonderful hobby and if they start with one of the 3 Starter Sets you AND your friend earn a £10 voucher.

Hey all

Whether this is news or common knowledge i dont know but im putting it here for you all to decide/addany extra info.

GW will be running a 3 day black friday event this year. There will be unique boxes with unique saving that you cannot get elsewhere and will be cheaper than buying all your stuff seperately from your local FLGS.

These will be GW only and it is possible that they will be only FOR THAT DAY.

This from my local GW guy.

Oh and also….

2×£10 vouchers for introducing someone too 40k or sigmar. However these are unlocked by the purchase of a starter set and my local GW (along with many others) will be giving them out too anyone who buys a starter set from either main system.

Thats Dark vengence for £45 in the form of a full price DV and £20 in vouchers.

These vouchers can then be turned into full blown gift vouchers and transfered across the GW/FW and possibly even BL stores.

Is this Games Workshop’s final push to get new folks into their stores, and pull out what some folks are calling a “rapid descent” of the company?

Worth queuing up for?
