  1. Please bring your shareholder pass with you. You don’t have to wear it around your neck, but we will want to see it at some point.
  2. The discounts vary by item (at both Borsheims and Nebraska Furniture Mart), so we can only tell you what the discount will be on each particular item.

Changes at Borsheims

Monday, April 11th, 2011

What’s going on behind the walls?

There are a few surprises awaiting Berkshire Hathaway shareholders when they arrive for this year’s Berkshire Hathaway annual shareholders’ weekend… and they’re currently in the works behind these makeshift construction walls.

There are two areas under construction. The photo on the left is in the watch area of the sales floor. This will be a Cartier shop-in-shop. A large Cartier backdrop and new showcases with red carpeting will set the Cartier shop apart from the rest of the sales floor. Borsheims is the only place in the area you can shop for Cartier products and we’re thrilled to have this shop-in-shop concept coming to Borsheims.

The photo on the right is of the new Pandora shop-in-shop. Pandora is a new line to Borsheims, and specializes in delivering genuine, high quality jewelry and accessories at affordable prices. You may know them best for their line of charms.

Both shop-in-shops are scheduled to be completed in time for the Berkshire Hathaway annual shareholders’ weekend. In fact, we’re hoping to get them done by early next week!

Look for photos of the finished product here, then come check them out in person and get some great deals with your Berkshire Hathaway shareholder credentials!

Have your Berkshire Hathaway credentials yet?

Tuesday, March 29th, 2011

Did you get your credentials in the mail yet? I haven’t seen any, but talked with a couple this weekend who said they received theirs just a few days ago. And just having the credentials in hand made them so excited that they spent the weekend “pre-shopping” at Borsheims and Nebraska Furniture Mart, picking out what all they’ll buy during the Berkshire Hathaway annual shareholders weekend.

How fun!

If you don’t have your credentials yet, don’t worry! Here’s the scoop from Berkshire Hathaway headquarters:
  • - The 2010 Annual Reports were mailed to shareholders of record and beneficial-but-not-of-record shareholders in mid-March.
  • - Included in the mailing was a Proxy Statement
  • - A perforated postcard was attached to the Proxy
  • - Fill out and return the postcard to order your meeting credentials
  • - Shareholders are entitled to a maximum of 4 meeting credentials
  • - The credentials are required for the meeting and other weekend events, as well as to receive special shareholder pricing during the discount period.
So make sure you get those postcards in! We want to see you during the Berkshire Hathaway annual shareholders weekend and during the shopping period. Remember, the discount at Borsheims runs from Monday, April 25, to Saturday, May 7. The discount at Nebraska Furniture Mart runs from Tuesday, April 26, to Monday, May 2.

Happy pre-shopping!

Berkshire Hathaway Shareholder Credentials

Monday, March 1st, 2010

Hello Berkshire Fans,

We just wanted to put up a brief post today highlighting some of the changes coming to the 2010 Berkshire Hathaway Annual Shareholders Meeting. Check out this document highlighting some of the changes.

2010 Changes Include:

-Table tennis is back (after a few years of hiatus, table tennis is back for the celebration)

-Shareholders are entitled to a maximum of 2 meeting credentials (change from 4 last year). Update: looks like Warren is allowing 4 credentials per shareholder again this year.

How do shareholders get their credentials?
Look for more information in the the 2009 Annual Reports that will be mailed in March. Included in the mailing will be the Proxy Statement. A perforated postcard will be attached to that Proxy. Fill it out and return the postcard to order your
meeting credentials.

Stay tuned for more information.

Best of luck and see you in May!
