Why does Discover sent out different colored envelopes for the IT card?

Maybe this is a stupid question, but is there any difference? 

So far I've received 3 purple envelopes, a red, and now a maroon all for the IT "double cash back your first year".

Discover has lit the fireplace and is asking you out for a date.

 

My opinion. 

 

Wait it for others thoughts.

They send different colors because it is boring receiving the same color every 3 days!

I've only received one. Purple. It was probably a few weeks after they denied me. LOL

I got a few purple ones and then applied for it and got it.  Then they kept sending another 5-10 of them after the approval and lowering the APR in the offer.

Because you noticed it.   Because it inspired you to talk about it.

You were under strict orders not to discuss this with anyone else, and no cops. Now you must pay the price. Good day, Sir!

It's to support gay rights. That's what I heard.
