Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2

Thanks again for the coupons LM! The 10% off each item in your order is handy.

I grabbed 4 Graphic Novels from the Buy 3 Get 1 Free Sale, and even with the $13.95(!) shipping to Canada, the total was still $10 less than Amazon.ca.

Damn, I didn't know about that sale. I bought 4 graphic novels in the same order just 4 weeks ago, and haven't read any of them yet. I guess I shoulda waited... :(
I looked around to see if I can find 4 more that I want, and there are, but two of them are not included in the sale. I guess it's cuz they just came out March 1st... Also, The Muppet Show graphic novels are not included, probably because they are instead included in some Easter book offer. Darn.

Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2

So I am assuming the 50% coupons will not get fixed?

:(

Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2

Has anyone attempted to use a coupon? I was wondering what a store would do or say if there was no barcode or number to enter.

I've never seen a Barnes and Noble coupon without a barcode. It doesn't make sense. I guess I could call the store. Probably a small chance I would be able to use it though.

It's hard enough to get them to implement coupons with a legitimate barcode, why give them an opportunity to laugh out loud at a "bogus" coupon. Usually they call in their managers if they have questions, but you might find a novice CSR who does a manual overide which may cause her grief later, YMMV.

Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2

Wow, I live very close to the El Cerrito B&N, and I still have my $20 for $10 Groupon gift certificate.

I might pick up Army of Shadows or Night of the Hunter on BD. Any other suggestions, Criterion or not?

Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2

BN.com has a few Criterion BDs on sale for 23.99/40% off as part of a 40-50% off "one week only" sale. The Criterion titles are:

Broadcast News
Army of Shadows
Cronos
Fish Tank
Senso
Sweet Smell of Success

Of course, these will be cheaper at the next Criterion half off sale but if you can't wait or have coupons/Groupons you want to use these are pretty good prices.

Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2

Well, looks like I finally got the weekly coupons back in my email account linked to my membership account. Hope we get some 20% online coupons soon.

I have to put a sizable dent in my list because of the abundance of Apr/May/June/July titles I'll be buying in the B&N sale because the smaller the better.

Thanks for the heads up. I ordered Senso which I had intended to preorder but forgot about.

Quick question, are there any coupons ever valid on the Nook? I'm assuming no(looking at the restrictions on the ones in the first post), but figured I'd ask anyway.

I was just gonna ask that same question. Lemme know if you find anything.

I don't think so. I asked about this recently and so far they haven't accepted coupons towards the purchase of a Nook.

Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2

No luck finding anything, but I did read an article on jailbreaking the color nook and the writer mentioned finding a deal on it for $200. Obviously he didn't mention how or where.

I did notice that Books-A-Million sells the Nook as well, so maybe there might be something out there.

Don't want to derail the thread much further but wanted to give a heads up, that Best Buy now carries the Nook Color. I have a 10% coupon sitting in front of me that doesn't list it as an exclusion.

I'll be trying it after work, but wanted to mention it early so you guys would have time to try it out vs. me posting at later tonight that a coupon worked an hour before they close. It's a standard 10% off that is emailed/mailed every few weeks.

Thanks for the heads up! I'll probably look at it late Sunday night since I suspect bn.com will raise prices when the sale starts on Monday.

:sad: No dice. I'd say there is still a chance with a clueless cashier, but chances are remote.

Now back to the non-Nook talk...

Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2

B&N has become just... S-A-D. I've only ordered two small dvds from them in the last 2+ months. Since Christmas time they've offered almost no decent online coupon codes (the nearest store is about an hour away so physical coupons do me no good), and on top of that the dvds I do have in my wishlist haven't budged off the typical 10-20% off. Therefore I've all but abandoned this store as a solid source for my dvds. Once my membership is up (I think in late May or early June) I'm definitely done with this company. I used to be purchasing at least a couple of dvds, on average, per month from them by making use of 15% or 20% coupons, along with seeing better discounts than I've seen lately on their items. It's a real pity that I'm dropping them, but when Amazon can consistently beat their prices...

I want to thank Laser one more time for all his great work in this thread (as well as the previous one). Without him finding and posting all the great coupon codes down through the years I'd have never purchased 1/10th of what I have from the company. And since I do still have a couple of months left on my current membership, I'd still love to see any coupon codes you come across added to the front page of this thread, Laser. But either way, I want to let you know I appreciate you and everyone else that's made this thread a daily visit for me. Thanks!

Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2

I had every intention of letting my recent trial membership roll over at the end of February, but it was becoming obvious that the coupons (and thus deals) weren't going to be as plentiful as they once were so I canceled it a weak before it was up. Had I been able to use all those groupon codes, it might have kept me in such a positive frame of mind I wouldn't have sweated the extra $25- but not after having half of them voided out. Had I kept it, I definitely would have placed a few more recent orders because of the no minimum orders- but otherwise between Amazon w/ Prime, and a CBS/Paramount sale and 10% off code at DVDEmpire, I've got the majority of my winter/spring want list already checked off.

Still hope they kick out a B2G1 in June and the Criterion sale in July. Deals won't be as good as they were, but I'm still holding off on a few much wanted titles till then. Of course, Amazon usually matches the 50% price on most Criterions during those sales, so I may just save the gas and get them from Amazon anyway.

Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2

We really need another Groupon deal or 50% off coupon like we had in rapid succession last month.

Seeing how that turned out the last time I would be surprised if they do it again with either.

Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2

I'm sorta questioning myself as to why I renewed my membership 2 weeks ago.

You can cancel if it is within the 30 day window specified in the membership terms.
