News- Spikey Bits Gets a Face-lift

By Rob Baer | February 28th, 2013 | Categories: Uncategorized

Well if you’ve been by the online store this week, you may have noticed a bit of a change! The site has a new design now!

It’s way more easier to navigate, so you can find what you need faster!  The left nav menu now fully drops down for each category section you click on, and there is even category images on those  pages that you can use to navigate as well.

Oh and we have spiffy new breadcrumbs to help you keep your place, and last but certainly not least an e-Gift card product now as well.

So if you have a birthday or special holiday coming up, a Spikey Bits e-Gift Card is the perfect gift instead of getting the wrong “Space Marines” or “Land Raider” (or even socks for that matter).

Plus the front page is updated more regularly to help everyone keep up with store news better!

So if you haven’t seen it yet, pop on over and take a spin around the new site!  Oh and if you haven’t gotten your $5 off Bits coupon yet, use the code 5OFFBITS to save a little on your next purchase of Bits!

Thanks a lot guys for helping to make Spikey Bits not only the premier online gaming store, but also a great hobby resource as well! -MBG
