Does anyone know when it is? I think it's usually at this time of year. Thanks!

    FI got my e-ring there and we recently bought our wedding bands too...end of October. They had a 20% sale on almost everything (that was Oct 24th I believe) and I think that was annual, or semi-annual. So not sure if/when the next one will be.

    HTH!

    BTW - FH and I love this place. Amazing selection, great pieces, and the sales people are wonderful. You feel special here.

    FI bought my e-ring there too! If I remember the one last year was in March so that's when we were planning on buying our bands.

    Not sure when the sale is but remember, if you buy the ring at the New Hampshire store then you won't have to pay sales tax. Saved us a nice chunk of change!

    Thanks for the tip! That's actually what FI did when he bought my e-ring too.

    Hopefully you all had a better experience than we did. We went shopping for our wedding bands there and were treated VERY poorly. I would never go back. The saleswoman totally ridiculed our budget (which wasn't that cheap!).

    We went with DeScenza's. Very reasonable and extremely helpful and professional! Sorry to hijack this post, I just couldn't help myself.

    Really, I'm shocked. We shopped at the Framingham store and bought at the New Hampshire store and had great service both times. Our budget was not big at all but we were never ridiculed or made to feel cheap.

    That's too bad that you recieved such poor service, I love Barmakian and have purchased several pieces of jewelry from there since my wedding.

    I just called the Nashua location last night and was told the sale will be next weekend (3/11, 3/12, 3/13). We'll be there! So exctied to buy our rings - our wedding isn't until 10/1 but my FH bought my engagement ring there and loved the experience and we just can't pass up 10% savings! Happy shopping everyone!
