Since you're pushing your chips all-in on Cyber Monday anyway, happily foregoing precious gross margin dollars, why not push the chips all-in with some precision?
Step 1: Identify all prior Cyber Monday buyers in your database. Code them with a "1".
Step 2: Identify all Black Friday - Sunday buyers in your database. Code them with a "2", provided they don't already have a code of 1.
Step 3: Identify all prior %-off buyers in your database. Code them with a "3", provided they don't already have a code of 1/2.
Step 4: Identify all prior free shipping buyers in your database. Code them with a "4", provided they don't already have a code of 1/2/3.
Step 5: Identify all prior clearance/sale buyers in your database. Code them with a "5", provided they don't already have a code of 1/2/3/4.
Step 6: Identify all prior November/December buyers in your database. Code them with a "6", provided they don't already have a code of 1/2/3/4/5.
Step 7: Identify all other customers. Code them with a "9", provided they don't already have a code of 1/2/3/4/5/6.
There!
