Even better, I got a digital dollar back because they revived the Prime slow shipping offer.

Amazon says "It's Batman Day!" with some nice sales (I guess). There are some nice prices on certain Batman and Batman-related graphic novels (but this isn't the place for that). Here's my question: Other than the sleeve, is there any difference between the "Batman Anthology" and the "Batman Collection" four-disc set (which is $3 cheaper). And how good a price is $14.99 for that set? I know the three disc Warner sets were closer to $10-11 at one time but have drifted upwards.

I finally watched the entire series after getting this a year or so ago (I think I got this at the same time you did). You gotta watch it!

Maybe more if she has shitty tax. lol.

It's not the paying more, it's the fact of not even watching it, so I PAID $6 to store the set at my house for 16 months.

I've gotten into streaming. If I watch it it'll be on Netflix. Sigh :) I stopped buying discs and went streaming-only.

Amazon.com has a "Get a $10 Promotional Credit with the Purchase of $50 in Amazon Gift Cards" thing going on.

My cart had a link at the top to a page with this promotion. It's effectively a 20% discount.

They say the offer must have been mailed to you, or have shown up for you on Amazon.com, to be valid.

The promotional code is 0915GCARDS.

I'm not sure if it'll work if you don't get the email, or see the offer already, so YMMV.

Eh, I don't beat myself up over stuff like that any more. Yeah, I could've waited or not gotten it at all, but what's done is done. :shrug:

It's really a 16.7% effective discount (you are paying $50 to get $60).

Still, it's news to me (I didn't get the email or notice), and it worked just fine. Thanks! :up:

Wouldn't work for me. Don't know what I am doing wrong other than them knowing I personally wasn't sent the code.

It is apparently for select accounts.

No joy here.

Does it tell you guys the code is not valid when you enter it, or what?

Yep

Code didn't work for me. The only benefit of going ahead and trying it from here is that you don't have to go check your email. If they didn't pre-select you and email you, it won't work.

:D I was wondering who would call me on that. A 16.7% discount, or a 20% reward (that has to be spent there).

FWIW, I didn't receive any email about the offer. I only saw it when I looked at my cart.

Was anybody able to use the same offer on Amazon UK last month, but NOT on this one? Both have worked for me.

That's not correct, as I didn't receive the email, nor did The Cow.

Huh, interesting, so it's worth the couple of minutes to gamble when a code is posted.

Wait... but you DID see it in your cart. So let me rephrase that... unless Amazon in some way tried to show you they had a special offer for you :D Still seems you have to be pre-selected.

Mine showed up as a link at the top of the page, when viewing my cart. Now, there's currently some blurb about a $10 gift card and 2% back in Amazon gift cards if I use "Auto-reload." (not going to happen)

Thanks Andicus. This also worked for me. It's been awhile since I've gotten any discount codes for Amazon.com. How I miss the good old days (and no sales tax!)

I was on Amazon home page. I clicked on "Today's Deals". On the next page the column below "Today's Lightning Deals and More". Where it says >See all deals page 1 of 36 Restrictions apply. There are a bunch of banners. And the one above showed up.

When I click on that link, it indicates I'm not eligible for that offer. Not surprised, since I took advantage of the last time they had a similar deal.

The Cow 09-29-15 12:43 PM

Re: Amazon discounts and deals on Blu-ray
 
I wonder if it works more than once? If I add another $50GC to my cart it sure looks like it would send me another $10 credit. Hmmm...
