According to my Offer Details page, I have free shipping on my account. I couldn't get it to work at the checkout, though.

By the way, FS is not combinable with Funcash, but it can certainly be combined with 40% off box sets.

How you get free shipping on box sets???? I also have FS on both accounts (read from the detail page) but couldnt get it through checkout. I think I get some problem with the website ehh
The FS also conflicts with the 0.99 preferred member bonus.

Email them and see if they can process your order via email. Earlier this year, back about March, they had a 40% off box sets for a day or two + free shipping. I emailed that I couldn't get it to work and they replied "Tell me what you want and the prices you expect and we'll process your order." I actually got the deals too.

I didn't have any free shipping in any of my accounts. As always, CH is a mistery.

Is it really free S&H on your whole order, or just on the DS? I've seen that one (DS) on 2 of my accounts recently.

I've got the same thing showing on my account, but it doesn't work. I think someone at CH messed up (again).

I have the same offer showing on my unfulfilled account too:

I tried fulfilling my account by ordering two sets of the "3 for $25" lot, but still got charged normal S&H! I tried using the $5 off first web order and I also tried without using the $5 off -- it didn't make any difference. Sent a message to CH Customer Service -- hopefully it will get fixed because this is too good to pass up! An Average price of $5.20 is about the best anyone could hope for ($17.40 for 6 enrollment DVDs + $45 for 6 fulfillment DVDs = $62.40/12 = $5.20 per DVD).

The $3 for 25 deal is a good way to rake up the Funcash, too.

For me it yielded $6 in funcash (fulfilling with 3-for-25 x 2). Problem is, $6 funcash is useless. The cheapest DVD's at CH are $10, so 10 - 6 + 2.99 = $6.99. That would save me 17 cents over the normal deal, but there aren't really any $10 DVD's of interest.

Leave the account open and apply for a second account. When you fulfill, ask a CSR to transfer the Funcash to your first account. They will usually do so if you cancel the second account, and it helps if you get the Panama call center.

Do the 2 accounts need to be in the same name in order to transfer the fun cash?

Perhaps, I do not know. I do know that they don't have to be the same address.

You never know when fun cash migth come in handy. I used $1 in fun cash (all I had on the account) when the box sets were going for 55% off. Even with shipping (and only $1 off) it was an amazing deal.
