Yes, the code was 5 off 15 and worked multiple times in the same store and then, in another one.

I really don't think it was supposed to but cool that you got it to work for you.

Thanks for the tip on Buzz guys. I will try this a few times and see if it works. Already got my code!

dsa_shea

I almost signed up for Buzz but I don't like the idea of them monitoring my purchases and contacting me about various things based on my purchasing habits.

BuckNaked2k

You can opt out at any time by texting STOP.

Only one this time. The Gold Rush.

Can you opt out of getting junk emails and mail?

BuckNaked2k

Listen, there are a lot of people on here who have tried like hell to get B&N e-mails and/or mail without any success. If you are getting stuff from them you don't want, I would think you could unsubscribe rather easily.

Buzz is their vehicle for text messages, and they indicated that a reply of "STOP" will end that.

They can't do that for me. I never ever use the Visa I registered with them. I use my B&N MC. Obviously this means I only use the in-store BN Buzz coupon codes, and never the online codes...

laidbacklarkin

not receiving the confirmation code on my phone from Buzz. am I doing anything wrong ?

How do you use the code at the store? Do you just tell the cashier the code or what?

dsa_shea

Well, there lies the problem for me as the Visa that I would have to register would be the one I use on everything from buying on Amazon, buying groceries and paying a few of my bills like cell and cable. I really don't want them monitoring all of that and watching for buying habits to fill up my email and likely my mailbox with even more "offers".

I just got Being John Malkovich and Shallow Grave Blu-Rays -- used my Buzz code, $5 off. $38 or so total, pretty good.

mhanlen1

You have to show them the text message.

bayoozen

Are you supposed to be able to use it as many times as you want? It doesn't say anything about one time use.

mhanlen1

I guess it depends on the cashier. Technically it's once per transaction. The cashier today was very resistant to me using it twice, so I didn't. I am going to try using it at a different store in the next few days, so I'll report if I can use it again. All I can say is try it for the time being. It should work at least once.

BuckNaked2k

That feller in post #179 claims to have used it nine times.

kenbenobi

Can't you register a Visa Gift card, or Visa Debit card instead?

GR13

Love this sale. Picked up:
Three Outlaw Samurai
Samurai Trilogy
The Gold Rush

mhanlen1

Mines a Visa Debit card.

It's definitely a YMMV applying the BN buzz text "coupons" to this sale. I've tried at two Seattle-area B&Ns, and each time the cashiers were ready with the fine print from the Buzz sign-in page that has the same "may not be combined with any other coupon or promotional discount" that they use to justify blocking the mystery coupons for this sale.

Does anyone know the best way to return an online order in-store with the least amount of hassle? Do I need to open the package up in front of them to prove it's legit?

BuckNaked2k

No. Just have your receipt that came with the item(s). If you have an old B&N bag, that's better than haulin' in the box.

I'm going to finally have to pull the trigger on Blow Out...
