It probably hasn't escaped your notice that there have been more than a few changes at CWA over the past few months. There's been a lot going on and it's all to do with a 3 Phase plan that we set in place towards the end of Summer last year. This has involved a lot of time, research and an element of risk taking, and, we're delighted to say that it's now all falling into place rather nicely.

Phase 1 began in March 2012 and saw CWA enlarge its operations with the launch of 2 new online stores serving the USA and Europe. April then saw Phase 2 swing in to action with the merger and re-brand of our sister company Sacristy Clothing into the newly set up Catholics With Attitude designer stores - a process which should be fully completed within the next few weeks.

The final Phase of our expansion kicked off on the 1st of May and brings a fourth Catholics With Attitude online store into the existing set up. This new store will focus on Catholics living in Canada and is set to launch before the end of this month - just in time for the Summer rush!

Customer feedback and market reaction for Phases 1 and 2 has been extremely positive, with like-for-like trading between January and May 2012 already exceeding that for 2011 by a huge 25%.

We've said it before, and, we'll say it again.

"Keep an eye on us - we're going places".

Regular shoppers and followers of our Social Network updates will already be familiar with our oft quoted line "His and Hers in stock".Well, thanks to some smart work by our Development Team, we are pleased to unveil our new "His and Hers Shirt".

These were piloted on Monday last week at our create your own store and thanks go to Brian and Janet who uploaded their own artwork, created a "His and Hers" shirt and sent us a snap of them wearing it together yesterday on their hotel balcony in Lourdes.

We're working on multi-user applications for this, so if your HCPT / YSVP / KofC / School / Dicastry or other group has uniform needs, then, get in touch with us. 
 
 
One of the tasks we had set ourselves for this year was to try and do more to remember the sacrifice that Jesus paid on Good Friday, and, to see how our business day could possibly fit in to the Church's practices on that very special day.

We have decided that Catholics With Attitude's operations will be suspended on Good Friday, with the effect that it will be impossible to make a purchase from us during that period. This being the case, we are also asking all visitors to the site to donate the money they intended to spend in the store to worthwhile Catholic Charities.

The Home Page will have a few links to Charities whose work we admire and we will be inviting you to donate to them, or of course, any cause close to your own Heart.

 
 
Following on from the successful pilot run of our design-your-own site in America towards the end of last year, we're delighted to announce that we will be running the pilot again for Spring / Summer 2012 and launching 2 further design your own stores for Europe and the UK.

Building on the success of our USA Designer Store and the growth in orders made from across the pond at our main European Store, Catholics With Attitude are delighted to announce the launch of a new additional online Catholic T-shirt Store serving shoppers in the USA and beyond - www.catholicswithattitude.org

This store will be piloted throughout Spring and Summer this year, and will allow shoppers to purchase familiar CWA tees using US Dollars.

This is very much a trial period and the CWA Team are keen to know which designs / artwork already on sale in Europe should feature in this new store. We already have over 200 tees available to buy and we're working hard to bring you even more, so, if you can't see the shirt you're looking for, simply let us know and we'll try and sort something out!

Catholics With Attitude - we aim to please!

Now shopping with us is even easier - you no longer need to have an account with us in order to place an order!

Yes, from now on, new shoppers will be able to chose if they want to create a user account or not while placing an order - as long as they are not logged in already. Customers who already have a user account can also place orders with the same email address. The new guest order won't be added to the already existing user account.

After having sent the order, customers will receive an order confirmation email as usual - but this time, the email will include a link to an order page or their virtual user area. The link will be valid for one year and the page will include most of the functions like in the "usual" user account. It will also be possible to register as a customer with the used email address afterwards.

Customers will be able to place as many guest orders as they like with one email address. There will be shown only one order in the virtual user area though. This is why customers should really keep the email or save the link.
 
 
That whiff of spring air tells of warmer and brighter days, and £10 / €10 / $10 off your next order can make it even brighter!

From now until 19 March, UK shoppers can jump start their spring wardrobe with £10 off orders of £50 or more. It’s as easy as adding the voucher code SPRING2012 while checking out at our ".com" or ".net" stores.

Now, if I am doing my maths correctly, that’s 20% off a 50 quid order. And for those of you out there who pay in Euros at www.catholicswithattitude.net, you can get €10 off a purchase of €50 with the voucher code SPRING2012EU.

...and yes, our American Shoppers aren't left out. Spend over $50 at the USA version of www.catholicswithattitude.net and we'll take $10 off when you enter the code STPATRICK2012.
 
 
At long last, what many of you have been waiting for!

Now, here's the good bit -  you'll be able to pay for your order in Euros! (Yes, that's right, the days of having to use conversion rates will soon be over)
