Subaru Ambassador (main thread - information)

this is a family show!

As an aside, I have never heard of this. is it a cult?

 

Yes...

 

And it's closing down this month for program refresh. Spend your cash. Who knows if it'll come back.

 

I got that email, too. I can't imagine it's gonna come back but I guess we'll see what happens.

 

"yeah keep evangelizing.... that's cool. maybe we'll do something for you."

 

I've been waiting for them to kill the program since the coupons were removed. I just keep buying clothing and mugs. No meets or anything. After almost a decade of this, much of my casual wardrobe, water bottle/mug collection and winter hats are Subaru branded.

I did just order a BRZ, though, so I'll use my (last?) personal coupon.

 

Expired yesterday... probably.

 

I got a couple hats and things for me, kinda wish I did more. I have a bag full of goodies that I keep in the trunk. I roll up on something cool, they get swag on the windshield wiper. They are standing there? They get choice. They sell me something (not at a discount)... you're gonna take all the **** I want to get rid of and I'm gonna tell you that it's rare and everyone wants it.

 

States 90 days so I'll hold the dealer to it. I issued it since I didn't want to forget before the site shut down. Car is supposed to be here this month, so should be ok.

I used to carry around a bunch of stuff to give away. Past couple years I've just been getting stuff for co-workers with Subarus and outfitting my wardrobe. I have enough long-sleeve shirts (use mainly as pajamas) to last me a lifetime.

If you check the Ambassador forum, they state no more Staples Promotional dollars for the rest of the year. That's a long time to 'revamp' the program. I bet it's over. It was amusing while it lasted.
