By "didn't work", you mean that it continued to display "Specials" and "New 
Items" only, or do you mean that it didn't display anything?  Perhaps the 
metadata is in an unexpected format.  To confirm, please do the following:

Click...
  * Items
  * Any item sku
  * Promotion
  * "add..." next to "Promotions" field
  * Enter the following:

=none,
demo=Demo,
specials=Specials,
new=New item,
expired=expired,

  * OK

We'll get this little stinker.
