Signed up for the trial membership. Is it normal for it to say under account settings, that my membership expires November 4th 2012? Email told me it was the 2 month trial aswell.

Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2
 

That's your expiration date if you forget to cancel within two months. They will bill you for a year, retroactive to when the trial started.

Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2
 

So, BN took over my Borders account (which was under a different email address). Were they supposed to automatically create an account for me under that email address? I tried logging in (using my old Borders password) and it did not work. And Do I get a trial membership at BN.com automatically?

Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2
 

Thanks to illennium and kenbenobi for explaining the coupon.

I'm not a fb member. Hopefully I'll be around if/when any more generous people decide to post extras.

Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2
 

I never remember seeing anything about B&N automatically creating a new account if you were a former Borders customer. B&N did send out emails they obtained the customer data from Borders, and for a limited time you could opt out of having your customer data transferred to Barnes & Noble. Also if you had a Rewards Plus Membership you may qualify for a free B&N membership through January 2012. However it required signing up to activate it. Here are the full terms for the free membership.

Two more 50% off list price book coupons up for grabs. First 2 people to pm get it.

Edit: Both coupons claimed. I'll probably a few more to give away tomorrow again.

Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2
 

I would like a 50% off Book coupon if anyone has an extra. Send me a private message, thanks.

Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2
 

He's not the one bringing in a technicality, he is following the receipts terms. B & N is trying to bring in the technicality by saying "promo not a discount".

yet they are not advertising this as a promo. they are advertising it as a 50 % off sale.

they can't have it both ways.

50 % off = implying 50 % off the list price = discount.

Look what they say, this is a discount:
"Criterion Collection Sale: All Now 50% Off!"
they want to reel people in with the language but don't want to pay out.

I'd rather they change the receipts and be consistent than play games with the customers.

Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2
 

look how they are advertising:

Island of Lost Souls
$39.99 List price
$19.99 BN.com price

The list price remains $39.99, there is no new list price! it is a discount sale. (I realize 39.99 shouldn't qualify, the whole point of the 8 off 40 is so they don't have to include those 39.99 ones)

I don't really care but B & N is being a bit sleazy

Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2
 

You can't pick and choose your fine print.

They're allowing us to usually use coupons that few, if any, of us technically should be using. Look at all the fine print. The $5 and $8 coupons can be used once per person if you bought a new membership within a very specific date range.

All of the coupons say that they cannot be combined with any other coupon.

They are being extremely generous and not enforcing this rules, and giving us huge discounts on these titles.

And yet we call them sleazy and "fight for our rights"? Ridiculous.

Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2
 

I think of the consumer and the retail store, as two squirrels fighting.

Each are trying to grab each other's nuts as much as possible, without getting too much hurt themselves.

Would be nice if they had a 20% VISA coupon. :)

Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2
 

Who's being sleazy? You can still use 20% off on top off 50% & 10% in the store...that brings it down to less than you'll be able to sell it for once you watch it & resell it once the sale season is over.

Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2
 

BTW if anyone still has one of those 50% off coupons, I could use it.

Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2
 

They also have in the restrictions not be used for digital content so they could even push that if they didn't want us to use any of the coupons during this sale. I don't think it is worth arguing as I would like to at least be able to use my 20% off coupon a time or two more without pissing someone off.

Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2
 

Digital Content means content delivered electronically, like ebooks, and does not refer to items on physical media.

Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2
 

Check your pm.

Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2
 

LASERMOVIES...any word on any more sets of coupons for next week?

Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2
 

Can you use the 50% off book coupon more than one time on the same account if you get a different code?

Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2
 

It's too early to know anything definite yet. However B&N has been cycling the the 20% and 15% coupons about every other week lately. If they stay with that pattern next week might not be a very good one for new coupons, but I'm hoping they may start increasing the coupons for the holidays. I went searching through this thread and found last year several 25% store coupons came out around November 9.

Yes.

Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2
 

Thanks for the info, I think I will sign up for a membership for free shipping if I can get another coupon or two.

Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2
 

Used two 50% off coupons in-store today, with Ship to Home orders. The books I wanted were considerably cheaper online, and I hoped that if I did a Ship to Home order I would get 50% off of the ONLINE price instead of the List price. My plan worked. When the Ship to Home order is placed, the paperwork only mentions the online price. So when you go to the register to pay, they have no idea whether or not that is the List price. They just go by the price on the paper.

Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2
 

Nice. Wish I had known about this earlier. Oh well, next time.

Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2
 

I would take a 50% off Book coupon that is expiring tonight if no one is using it. I saw another book that I want. Send me a private message. Thanks.

Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2
 

Never mind

Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2
 

decided not to buy anything

so if anyone is wanting a 50% still. PM me.

edit: gone
