I don't think he meant for orders under $25... Although for members, it does allow free shipping for $20+ after all discounts are applied, as long as it was $25 before discounts. I just placed an order from my member account for $20.53 and still got free shipping. I figured it was better to use my member account, 15% coupon, and 15% from live.com than any other combination. I added a $2.98 bargain book to the order to achieve the minimum. I will return the bargain book to my local store later
You can return anything from an online order, but they will likely give you store credit, and NOT a refund to your credit card (some managers will, but it is definitely YMMV)

I've placed some order with this combination, also. However, I'm not sure if the use of the coupon is going to negate the 15% cashback from live.com later on. I know some sites won't even let you enter a coupon if you go through live.com, but for those like B&N that do, might they "catch" it later even though it presently shows in the cashback account pending 60 days?

In any case, I'm only ordering this way in cases where it's a good deal even without the cashback.

Good point. But I would have ordered it anyway. I consider the cashback a "bonus" and don't calculate it into my final cost for anything I order...

The live.com cashback is down to 6% for B&N. (Showing 15% on the cashback store page, but changes to 6% when you click through.) Most of the stores took a big cashback % drop today.

Laser, do you know when the three 15% Off coupons that expire on October 6th will be activated? There's no start date listed.

I have no idea when those coupons will become active. If there is no start date listed they could begin working anyday. If you are waiting for new coupons the codes listed to start on September 5 should get activated around 12 PM eastern time tonight. Usually B&N activates coupons with a start date 24 hours before the official date listed.

Thanks! I was waiting on the Sept. 5th coupons to activate. I appreciate you keeping these coming. I'm using them all the time now and they really, really help out. Especially if one waits for a 40% Off sale, like the one going on right now. I've ordered several things already and was simply waiting on more coupons before finishing up. Thanks again!

Damn! Well, glad I put one more order through last night...

List updated. Added a few new coupons to the active list and removed some expired ones. Today is the last day to use the members 20% code. Use it if you can before it expires. However the new replacement code for it is now active.

Thanks, Lasermovies. Another reminder, today is the last day for the 10% discount at NSCS...

can someone tell me why i still can't use a 20% coupon. now L4C7C9Y i can't get this to work, nor have i ever been able to get a 20% to work. i am a member and can get 15% to work.

please, i want to use this!!

Yeah, I've not been able to figure that out yet, either.

I have no answers why some members can use the 20% codes, while others cannot. I have had no problems using them with my membership. In fact when I had 2 memberships for a while I was able to use them on both accounts. If it's any consolation the 25% codes will hopefully start showing up again next month.

Ah, this is probably it:
Of course, BN.com won't easily let me register the membership for my account for whatever reason, but I imagine if one were to do so it'd solve any issues with the 20% codes.

good, that will probably another one that won't work for me.

what does register membership mean? i am a member what else do i have to register?

Seems to be a way to allow you to make changes to your membership profile online, but I can't say for sure, as it won't let me register online (probably because the account was under my name and the membership opened in-B&M by my girlfriend). I believe online-enrolled/renewed memberships are automatically registered, which might be why some are registered and can use those coupons without realizing having done anything differently.

In any case, it's an option on the main account page.

ureka!!! i registered and it worked!!!! yay for me. now this 20% coupon is only a one time coupon? so i can't ever use it again for any other online purchases?

i was rooting for ya all the way because its been such a dang long time youve been trying lol!

and yesh, one time use per account. so you gotta wait until the next 20% coupon comes around.

I'm jacked up about a potential 25% coupon! I already know what I'll use that one for. Thanks again, Laser.

So do I. The Borzage/Murnau set for around 135 bucks with tax.

thanks h.

Are you just guessing, since the holiday shopping season is approaching? I was thinking they weren't going to have any more 25% ones. I surely hope you are right... But I'm much rather have the 50% off code like last year! Now THAT rocked!!!

Getting Ford at Fox for $90.00 was amazing.

I was right there with on that one NoirFan! I also got the complete Seinfeld set with the code, so I have two B&N memberships now.

Oh how I'd like to have that code just one more time.

More or less guessing since the 25% coupons last year didn't start showing up until around October. A few more weeks we should start seeing some more of the October coupons from B&N, which may answer the question what B&N's plans are for the holidays. The past couple of years since I have been shopping at B&N they have had the 25% coupons during the holiday shopping season. I don't see any reason why they would quit this year. I assume many stores are expecting slower sales this holiday season, and would want to offer some extra incentives to shoppers to start buying.

It would also be nice if there was another 50% coupon as well. I purchased a second B&N membership so I could use it twice.
