My theory is, 1) gadget freaks need to have the newest gadgets or 2) as you said, an expensive item they can flip for a sale. Personally, I'll never buy an e-book reader. I like paper too much.

Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2
 

I kind of feel the same way. I love being able to mash a book into a backpack and go to the beach. I feel that I would be too worried about my e-reader's screen during transport or how sand might get caught in the nooks and cranny's. Something is great about being able to roll up a book.

With that being said, I bought a crapton of coupons, 12 in all. I've used pretty much all of them except 3 and I'm getting ready to use those soon as well.

Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2
 

Is there any way for non-members to get free shipping?

Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2
 

Yes, but your order after coupons must be $25+
They also had a free shipping coupon, but I think it expired... I'm sure they will do that again at some point...

They also still have the free two-month membership deal going on (see link in the first post), so you could always do that...

Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2
 

:bow:
I had to lay low this time around, after having abused the 50% off coupon to the full extent... I bought 6, and already used 5. Well, I also have 4 that disappeared, but I don't expect to get those...
They are hackable. If you get the one with 3G and Wi-Fi, it's like having a cheap Ipad with internet at your fingertips pretty much anywhere, without having to pay for service.

Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2
 

The fact that the gift cards are still being sold is tempting me. I already bought 12 though and I think I may have a bit of an impulsive shopping problem, hehe.

Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2
 

For many of them, I would imagine that Slick Deals is their job. Anyway, the two GCs I ordered with alternate emails went through, so I'll use those for Space: 1999 S1 on Blu-ray and I'm done.

Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2
 

I ordered 7 with 7 different emails yesterday, all back to back, and last night I got confirmation emails for all 7. Placed my first order, using 3 of the GCs, for "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind," "A Beautiful Mind," "The African Queen," and "NFL: Road To Super Bowl XLIV - New Orleans Saints" for $66.44, or essentially only $36.44, which is smokin'. Going to place a second order here in a bit, and going to try for some more Groupons later. Why not, right?

Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2
 

FYI Groupon is having a Super Bowl ad today. It could affect the B&N sales, i.e. cause a sell out.

Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2
 

Many people on slickdeals always become too greedy with these kinds of deals. There was a $20 amazon GC for $10 a couple weeks ago on LivingSocial, and slickdealers scammed the shit out of them. In the end everyone just got one gift card, the way it should have been in the first place.

I hate how it takes a few greedy people to ruin it for the rest of us. I'm cool with ordering 2-3 gift certificates, but 10? 20? I think anyone trying to turn that kind of "profit" doesn't need the money in the first place - he/she just needs a different hobby.

Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2
 

Umm...they are turning the same profit as the person who buys 1, 2, or 3. It is a 100% profit (20 is 100% more than 10). So, I don't see how you could fault the person that wants to pay $100 for $200 worth of stuff from BN, but think it is fine for the person who wants to pay $30 for $60 worth of stuff from BN.

Unless you oppose people buying more than 1 on some sort of moral ground, there is no reason to complain about people buying 2 or 20. Most people like to save 50% when they shop regardless of if they are spending $20 or $200.

Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2
 

Profit here refers to magnitude/absolute value, not percentage.

No moral ground here. This happens all the time with SDers, where a deal says 1/person or something, then the company begins to catch on then cancel tons of orders.

What I'm saying is people should be happy, say, saving $30 on a Nook instead of going overboard and trying to buy three of them, then sell them on ebay. Like I said, they don't need the money. It's just obsession with slickdeals.

Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2
 

I have a groupon waiting but ti says login is unavailable

Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2
 

I haven't been able to log in either. And, it's my first coupon. So, I hope I didn't just waste $10 on nothing.

Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2
 

No, no....don't worry about the log-in. You will still get your groupon. Their e-mail system has been taking a few hours, so keep checking.

Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2
 

nah don't worry about that. it's just annoying cauze their site is getting swamped

^ Thanks! That worked. I just have to wait until tomorrow to use it. Gives me more time to decide what to buy.

Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2
 

If you have a droid/iphone, use the groupon app - you will get your code in 5 minutes.

Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2
 

Still haven't received my Groupons purchased through ShopDiscover and its been almost 48 hours. I'm probably going to send an email soon.

If you already have a Groupon account use touch.groupon.com to order. Groupons come super quickly.

Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2
 

Strange things are afoot.

I just got an e-mail from Discover Card indicating that I earned additional Cashback from Groupon purchases in the amount of $10. This would equate to 5 Groupon purchases through ShopDiscover (since the bonus is 20%).

My concern is that I received only 3 actual Groupons through this portal. So, I will either be receiving the additional two at some point in the future, or I will need to contact Groupon and find out where they are. :(

Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2
 

Meanwhile, Mr. Rebates does not show me any pending rebates and I don't have any pending charges on my Amex from the 6-7 orders I placed through it yesterday. I bought some more Groupons thinking those have been lost, but if they do show up, I'm sure I can put them to some good use.

I guess we'll find out tomorrow.

Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2
 

I purchased another via ShopDiscover a couple of hours ago and already have it. I did create a new CC # and a new Groupon account for this one.

Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2
 

Anybody have problems using more than one at a time on bn.com. or will it cause a problem? I wanted to order a 40 dollar item. Thanks in advance.

Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2
 

I just had part of my order canceled. I ordered Black Swan and The African Queen using two Groupons and they canceled Black Swan. The reason being they weren't able to fulfill the order (it's a pre-order). I also got screwed out of the 20% coupon since it was deducted of the highest priced item (Black Swan). I checked my gift card values and nothing has been put back on the card. Hopefully this all gets sorted out tomorrow.
