I was curious when you look at the order online is the amount being charged to your credit or debit card listed as "zero" right below the order total? I"m seeing that on one of the orders I received. So far I have not been charged yet, but expect eventually B&N will catch it.

Nope, it lists the correct amount I'm due to be charged. I still don't see a pending charge for the order yet.

I was down visiting AZ and a clerk at the store I visited offered to order-me in a title I asked about (Metropolis BR) and he said it could've been my third title for B2G1F. Sounds like YMMV...

I haven't seen a charge yet for my recent order too. The status page shows the correct amount to be charged to the card, but the status still shows not shipped. Just a guess, but the charge might be tied to that status and if it doesn't change the charge might not occur. The Order Status page, where all recent orders are listed, shows Not Yet Shipped. The more specific page for that order shows that it shipped 3 days ago. The date they have for shipping was a Saturday, so maybe it needs more than 1 full business day to show up on the credit card charges.

I'm experiencing the same thing with my order status page, but am eventually getting charged for the orders. I just had a charge posted on my credit card last night for the order mentioned. The charge did post a few days later than normal, but it still says "zero" will be charged to my credit card. The status is still not showing up as shipped on B&N's web site even though I received it Friday. I have several other orders that were shipped and received that are also not showing up as shipped on my status page, but I have been charged for most of them. The only order not charged now has a pending charge today.

I need a non-Visa 20 or 25% coupon...come on B&N.

Is anyone please able to tell me what "$50 worth of coupons" you receive on membership and specifically whether any of those can be used online.

As I'm an international customer, only the online coupons will be useful to me and if they're less than the $25 membership, it's not going to be worth it (especially now that the 10% membership discount does not apply online anymore).

cheers

All current coupons are in the first post. They are kept current by the great DVDtalker, LASERMOVIES. The coupons you are looking for are in the Membership Purchase and Renewal Coupons section. And yes, they can be used online...once.

Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2
 
thanks, I asked because I wasnt sure. From what I can tell from the first post, you get only one $5/$8 off coupon to use on new membership which doesnt correlate with B&N's claim of $50 in coupons.

You're looking at two different coupons. If B&N sent you the coupon offer you would only receive one of them. The coupon is valid both online and at stores. If you look further down the first page you will notice a spoiler that is hiding all the printable store coupons. The online coupon code is valid for one or all of the offers listed. I posted this before but I made a screen shot showing how all the offers using the online code can stack if you were going to combine everything. If you add everything from the online and store coupons it should roughly equal the $50 B&N claims.

$5 CD X 2 = $10
$5 DVD X 2 = $10
$5 Off $50 X 2 = $10
Complimentary Latte = $2.55 value
B1G1F Quamut chart $5.95 value X 2 = $11.90
B1G1F BN Classic $3.95 value X 2 = $7.90

Total = $52.35

Are there ever any "$X off a book over $XX" coupons?

Not that I can recall, no... They have had coupons valid specifically on books, but they were percentage coupons, like 50% off the purchase of any book.

Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2
 
Ahhh, alright. Any current % off coupons for books, then?

The closest coupon I've seen would be the $5 off $50 purchase coupon, but it is not specifically for books. There are some book coupons B&N issues every week but I don't post those since they are usually on a few select book titles, and you could usually save more if you wanted them using a regular percent off coupon.

Most of the current online and printable store coupons should work for books. You could also use AAA, Boeing, or Visa links to save a percentage off a book purchase.

In case people aren't aware, Best Buy Reward Zone has a mall in which you can link to B&N. They give 2 RZ points per dollar (yippee?) but also have a promo where you get 250 Coke Rewards points. You can currently redeem 200 Coke Rewards points for 250 RZ points, which of course equals $5. So, if you are placing a smaller order, and are a RZ member, it may make more sense to link to B&N through RZ instead of cashback sites, because you can get a free $5 RZ cert out of it, plus have 50 Coke Rewards points to spare, thus much better than 4% cashback...

I think you need to have a Best Buy Reward Credit Card to do that sadly

Nope. Just a RZ account, and you have to link to the store from their mall... Right when you log into myrz.com, in the lower right corner you'll see the mall area with links, but I think this direct link to the B&N page should work, as long as you are logged in:
http://onlinemall.myrewardzone.bestb.../m__1846__.htm

Here's a link to the entire mall:

Thanks for pointing this out. I may not get much use of it for B&N purchases because I get 10% back from Discover. But I don't get anything from Borders. And BB has the same 2 points per dollar for Borders so I might be able to make use of it there.

Plus the 250 bonus Coke Points. That promo is buried on the 2nd page of offers when you're in your RZ account. I first learned of it yesterday, because Coke advertises it when you log into Coke Rewards. It doesn't have an expiration date listed, but apparently you get 250 points for each partner you try. I don't know if the entire mall is considered one partner, or if each store in the mall is a separate partner. So buying from the same store twice won't work for that promo...
Here are the details from that promo:

2 RZ points per dollar works out to 4% of your purchase, in RZ certs. So, that may or may not be better than your direct cash back options.

Of course, that doesn't factor in things like the Coke Rewards.

The 250 Coke Rewards points though is for doing a BBRZ Partner Offer, right? Buying something from B&N through BBRZ doesn't seem like it's considered a Partner Offer.

Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2
 
I just noticed that when I linked to B&N via AAA there is a banner headline notice:

"This portal will be discontinued on January 31."

It looks like all the bookstore and other vendor portals will be discontinued as of that date. (Go back to page 1 of this thread and click on the various links and you will see what I mean.)

No more 10% discount for AAA members. Will something else take its place? Given the financial difficulties B&N is in I rather doubt it.

Adios, B&N.

Actually, the mall is one of the links in the partner offer page. I asked the same question but found the answer through a little investigation. I don't know how long it's supposed to take, but here's hoping it works!
