The Visa discount isn't working at all right now. The link works fine, but no 5% discount is appearing when I check out... The webpage still references the 10% discount as well...

List updated. Looks like a new B&N 20% code is coming soon. Not sure when it will get activated. Might have to wait until the current one expires Jan 1.
Also B&N has a new Buy 2 DVDs, Get 3rd Free sale coming. Probably starting sometime in January. If it was like the last one there might be some good deals if you get in early before the prices start going up and the selection decreases.

Yes it does say for a B&N Mastercard. Should have clarified that better. The current coupon says it expires January 1. Not sure when the new coupon will get activated but I would assume around the time the current one expires. Maybe it will start working a few days before Jan. 1. It does specify a B&N Mastercard is needed but it is possible any Mastercard may work. I can't verify it since my Mastercard is a B&N card. However I would assume if it is like the current coupon a membership in not required.

I was in B&N on Sat. I had some coupons and offered two to an elderly couple behind me. When they got to the register, I offered them another and the woman behind the counter got belligerent. Did I give them a coupon??? She called a manager and he said that it wasn't a coupon (it was the ones where you find the codes but it's not the actual coupon). I said yes it was, it tells the store what the code is. He said he would let it go this time because it was too crowded. He walked away muttering that the coupon was intended for me, not to give away. Scrooge, bah humbug. I couldn't believe it. Borders was so different. I can tell you I won't be renewing my membership if this is how they act and with the measly coupons they have been giving lately, it's definitely not worth the $25. This was in Bridgewater, NJ. I have been watching a book for nephew and they jacked up the price last week just as I was going to buy it. It was $13 cheaper at Amazon but it wouldn't be here for Christmas so I broke down and bought it with the $5 off $30. They better beef up their customer relations or they will be seeing even less people in the store.

Reminds me of a story I saw on the news this morning about a guy who bought $1300 worth of $10 walmart gift cards and was handing them out to people as they entered the store. Walmart called security and forced him to leave.

Yeah, people always complain about this sale, but if you are strategic you can get some good deals.

I agree. It is also key to order EARLY in the sale, since many items may already have a 20-30% discount, combined with B2G1F. Later in the sale they usually change everything to 10% off instead...

The last B2G1F sale started working a day early online. Virtually every DVD was eligible, and some were priced 40% off or more. However later in the day B&N was already removing some of the higer discounted titles from the sale. If the next sale is on Jan. 6 I would recommend trying to add items to your cart Jan. 5 to see if the discount is getting applied.

How's this for irony. My order for That 70's Show complete series was cancelled because B&N could not get authorization from my B&N MC. But not because I had no credit. It was because of a security check since I have had so many orders from B&N in the last few months. And of course, B&N MC didn't notify me. B&N.com sent me one email about a decline. So I updated the card, thinking it must have been a mistake. I never received another email, so I assumed everything was fine. But they cancelled the order without notifying me again. And of course they won't reinstate it. I'm pretty pissed right now...

List updated. The new 20% B&N Mastercard coupon is now active. I noticed the B2G1 free banner is up on the DVD homepage but it doesn't appear the sale is active yet on the web site. Have to keep an eye out to see if it starts working later today.
Edit: The B2G1 free has been removed.

Looks like the B2G1 free sale is on if you can find DVDs marked as part of the sale. However B&N is already raising prices. DVDs that were 30% off are now 20% off.

Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2
I've used coupons and GC's before, but this is the first I've tried which was tied to using a particular credit card. I was assuming that if you used the wrong credit card, the coupon would fail.

Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2
Is this the B&N Mastercard coupon? It is possible it might not work with a credit card other then a B&N card. No one has ever confirmed if it will work with any credit card or any Mastercard. I don't have an answer to what will or will not work with the coupon since I only use a B&N card with my accounts. You could try a different card to see what happens before placing the order. If it doesn't work use a different coupon.

Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2
YES, but you must have your default payment method set as a B&N MC (I'm assuming must be B&N card, but like Laser said, dunno if that is true). You can't even apply the coupon code until you add your MC payment method. But you don't have to charge anything to the MC. You can pay entirely by GC.
