The promo I got was for .com but as always if you get the invite it works on both sites.

It appears to be for .com only actually. In the past most promos, once activated, were good for both sites, but since last month we've had 4 promos that were exclusive to one site or the other, so that may be the new normal.

Do I have to do this to get promos?

I'm not sure if any of that will make a difference. In the past  eBay would always send the promo invitations by email, but that's become unreliable, so I always check Promotional Offers and this discussion board first.

By "I always check Promotional Offers," does that mean you look at the spot in My eBay?

Hmm, ok. I do get promos every once-in-a-while, but not all the time. Maybe it is because I never use them 😉

Yeah that's the thing... they're very valuable to certain kinds of sellers but almost worthless to others, depending on the value and quantity of items you sell.

It is probably very helpful to you because you have over 5,000 items on...And me? I have 175 items on. I don't use auctions anyways, just BIN with BO.

Woah! Please lower your font. It is hurting our eyes...

skylarstuff copied and pasted the info here, isn't that good enough? Honestly, it would be pretty hard to "make up" what they put in that (<--) post.

I can think of about a million more 'hilarious' April Fool's joke than a fake ebay promo. Would you really assume it's an April Fool's Day joke?
