Second, they raise their prices after the buy two get one sale starts; DVD best sellers were 30% off when the sale started and the next day it was reduced to 20% off, only an extra 10% off since box sets are always 10% off. Last there is Bing. For months even though entry was made through MSN/Bing, purchases were not recognized and only after two e-mails and forwarding the sales receipt e-mail was sent did you get the credit. The problem seemed to be corrected and now it is back again. I recently placed two B & N orders, a day apart, and both through Bing. The first was recognized and the second wasn't. As to the latter, I sent the customer service request to Bing and got the reply asking for the order confirmation. I sent it. Then instead of getting the credit, I got a request as to how much the cashback was and after replying, another reply that a request was being made to B & N for verification before they would even temporarily post the credit. Shopping with B & N and Bing just isn't worth the effort. I'm using ebate now. Also nothing new about B&N raising prices during a B2G1F sale. Sometimes I look forward to the sale ending so the prices can get back to normal. There are deals but you just have to take what they give you. Prices fluctuate and you just have to keep an eye for the best opportunity to pounce if they drop on something you want. Not sure if B&N is to blame for the Bing problems. I recently didn't receive cashback on a online purchase at Best Buy, and noticed several other forum members also had problems at Best Buy. Fortunately Bing is great about giving you the cashback when contacting customer service. Anyway since Bing is closing soon you'll have no choice but to use another web site for cashback. I've used ******** and had problems with them not crediting purchases. Their customer service was a nightmare to deal with over missing cashback. Bing customer service is much better. |

Well nevermind about Bourne. They raised the price again.

All 3 were eligible for the buy 2 get one free offer (surprised the pre-order qualified) and when combined with the AAA discount and 15% off coupon I paid only $43.17 with tax. |

Agreed. Bing's CS is very good. Every time I made a purchase and did not get the cashback message after 72 hours, they made it right after I contacted them. I'm going to miss the cash back option. |
Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2
LM, or whoever else, I have a quick question or two. When the Criterion sale starts, are coupons typically allowed to be used with that deal online? If so, what are the likely coupons that will be active at that time online?
I'm finished with trying for the deal in the stores, at least using the $5 off coupon that is usually out at the same time. They did it just fine for me the first sale or two, but the last two it has been an absolute nightmare, and ended up with me wasting a ton of gas to just try to get them to take the coupon and everything. |

Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2
I tried to use the non-member coupons with my AAA discount and none of them would work. I tried them without the AAA discount and they worked. Is this not being able to use coupons with the AAA discount new? I don't recall having this issue in the recent past.
I have multiple accounts so I used the AAA 15% off a couple of times. |

Don't know about the member coupons, but any 10-20% coupons and click-through deals (such as the Visa 5% + free expedited shipping) will stack on top of the Criterion pricing. Half of the stuff I got during the last sale was online because of it.

Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2
If any of you are trying to use a coupon and the buy 2g1 you cant have 3 of the same title in the cart. At least that has what it has been in the past.

I placed my order a couple of days ago and received an email today that Vol. 1 was cancelled while 2 and 3 are scheduled to ship on 7/7. The email says I'm only being charged for one set while the free one in the B2G1 is still free but the order page still shows the entire total. 2 questions come to mind: What will I be charged? Why was the item cancelled if it's still available for order? When will the other 2 items be cancelled? PITA. |

As for why it was canceled, I have asked myself that many times. It's the B&N way. You can just re-order it now for cheaper, so I wouldn't even bother calling to complain about it. But usually they will reinstate a canceled item if you call right away, so they can see it is still in stock immediately after the cancellation has just occurred. If the cancelled item had a coupon on it, they won't reinstate the coupon discount, from my experiences with them. |
Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2
I get an error message when I attempt to use any of the 15% off coupons with the Library link. Has anyone had success combining the two? I'm not trying to make a pre-order.
EDIT: Looks like stacking is no longer possible? |

Has the boat sailed on the Father's Day coupons? I don't see any mention of them on B&N's website.

Proceed to Checkout; "FREE Member Express Shipping" and "Send everything in as few packages as possible" will be pre-selected. 3. Place your order before June 28, 2010 at 2:59 am Eastern Time. What exclusions apply? Free Express Shipping applies to orders made at www.bn.com shipped within the continental U.S. only. The following items are not eligible for Free Express Shipping: items purchased from third parties accessible from the BN.com website (e.g., used books, PC and video games, etc.) Gift Cards, Gift Certificates, Magazines, digital content (including but not limited to digital books, magazines, and periodicals), SparkNotes and Quamut PDF files, Audiobook MP3s, Barnes & Noble Memberships, unusually sized or overweight items, or any item not identified as eligible for Free Shipping.

Orders containing pre-ordered items will not ship until ALL items are in stock. Business Days are Monday through Friday, excluding holidays observed by the Post Office and UPS, such as New Year's Day, Presidents' Day, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving, and Christmas.

Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2
obviously a major YMMV, but I got them to take one of those $5 off any DVD more than $20 today on top of the B2G1 sale. I picked up 3 of the recently OOP Criterions - all at $29.99 - $3.00 member discount, so $53.98 for the two full priced charged, then he took $5 off one of them at the end for about $51 total out the door w/ tax. He called his manager and he/she said no problem and I just played dumb w/ the "I just got this in an email so thought i'd come in and use, didn't know about this awesome sale though! No big whoop if I can't use it, but they are over $20 so figured i'd ask" all very politely and aw shucks. Kid (teenager) was more than happy to fiddle around to make it work. :)

Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2
I've got another link to add to the list.
The Entertainment Bookstore - 5% off www.barnesandnoble.com/entertainment edit: I just tested an order and shipping is free (standard and express). |
Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2
^
Thanks! I'll add it tomorrow when I need to update the list. I just realized the link might be giving free shipping this weekend because B&N was having a free shipping promotion for all customers. Will have to verify it tomorrow when the offer is supposed to end. |
Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2
Looking forward to getting my Leave it to Beaver complete set this week from them for $93 bucks. It's funny that my membership expires next week, and this was the only good deal I got from them the entire year. lol

Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2
List updated with a bunch of new coupons. Most will get activated later in the week. Found several new 20% coupons along with a new $5/$5/$5 coupon for members. That's good news for the Criterion sale next month! Will have to see if a lot these coupons will stack with the bookstore links when they get activated.

Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2
Thanks much Lasermovies, time to make out my Criterion shopping list! Wish there were a 25% off coupon like last sale but can live with YMMV $5 off.
