Please keep doing the updates if you can, Laser! I always check them. Not sure offhand when my membership expires, but there could still be deals without it.

Perhaps my final purchase with my membership... I just bought The Shining 2-Disc SE for $6.68 shipped with the P4C4N3N $5 off $10 coupon (used the Visa link for free shipping). I had no gift cards left, so I paid for this one. Used my B&N MC though, so I'll get another 5% back.
Cheapest price anywhere else is $12.87 shipped from DD

I tried that coupon the other day and couldn't get it to work. Said my purchase was not eligible. After reading the coupon details I figured it was sort of like a renewal coupon and I couldn't use it. I recently purchased a CD and used a 15% code instead. It would have saved me some extra money. I'll see if I can find another cheap CD or DVD and try it again before my membership expires.

Thanks for the heads up, a good deal on something I've been wanting. BTW, B&N list it as widescreen but I'm pretty sure it's full frame.
Oops, it's the anamorphic widescreen edition.

Originally I tested the coupon with a $20 DVD and it didn't work. I didn't bother with the CD later because I thought it required buying a new membership. The coupon for some reason doesn't work on any DVD even if it is over the $10 minimum. When I tried several more DVDs today the coupon was rejected during checkout. However I was able to use it tonight on a $10 CD. Even though my members discount took the price under $10 the coupon still gave me an additional $5 off. Ended up paying a little over $4 shipped for it.

Did anyone else get this email? I'm trying to figure what to make of it, and if there are going to be any good deals. When I went to the section for DVDs they had several titles I'm very interested in and am wondering if they might get marked down to 40% off. Currently it looks like the sale hasn't started yet.

I was wondering where any of the 40% savings were since I didn't see any. Most of the DVDs looked like they were only 15% to 20% off. Not much of a sale. I thought maybe the sale hadn't offcially started and the prices would get reduced more than what is currently showing up on the page. I'm waiting for a reason to renew my membership but maybe this sale won't be it.

What I think this sale is doing is simply incorporating the already ongoing 40% Off Sale. In other words, the only things that are actually 40% off are the items that have been on sale for a couple of weeks now. I'm doubting that anything new will be added. Just my two cents on the ad.

I think B&N did this last year? I seem to remember getting an email about a Private Preview of the holiday sale and nothing was discounted, but a few days later there were some good deals.

I was working on placing a final order, but as I feared, my membership expired at midnight EST. I was hoping CST or PST... But that's OK. I was trying to get a toy that was under $25, and forgot that the Visa and Military links won't work for those areas. I would have had to buy something else to get free shipping. I saved money by buying nothing, so I'm better off. Now it's up to B&N to give me a reason to renew. Otherwise I'm done for a while...

I didn't think it was possible, but B&N just got worse. You can no longer use coupons if you link from anything like e bates, fatwallet, or live.com. If you link from one of those sites, you see a banner on the B&N homepage. That part is handy. But I tried to check out, and it rejected my coupon (it was working fine before I decided to get some cash back on the order). B&N is really clamping down on good deals. It is becoming more and more apparent that they do not want me to renew...
#218
You may be able to beat that if you use live.com Ive gotten rebates from them if I went through their site on previous occasions to the time I went to the site within a few hours. So go to live and then go without linking. Im not guaranteeing it but that happened at deep discount when I forgot to link prior to my transaction.

Was the problem related to trying to renew a membership? I just ran a test through e bates and was able to get a coupon to work with one of the 10% non-member coupon codes since my membership is expired. There was a similar problem a few monthes ago trying to use coupons with memberships through the AAA, Military.com, and Visa links. Not sure if it was intentional or a glitch, but eventually the coupons started working again.
I also noticed e bates raised the cash back discount to 8%. I don't know if that is causing the problem on e bates. Have the other web sites raised their cash back discounts?
Edit: I checked live.com and it still is at 6%. FW is 4%.

I've used the Mastercard code 3 times and never had any problems. One time was with a members account. However I don't remember if I ever used it going through e bates or live.com. Never used FW. If I did it would have been with the members account, and my order would have had to qualify for free shipping. I have no idea why the coupon will not work going through any of those web sites. I wonder if it is the only coupon being effected? Since my B&N membership expired I cannot check any of the members coupons.

All I can say it, they surely lost a TON of members after 10/31, since soooo many people signed up last year to use the 50% off coupon. You would think they'd try to rectify that situation...

It's possible there might be a glitch with the coupon, and it will start working again through those web sites.
I'm still hoping the 25% coupons are coming very soon now that November is here. A bunch of coupons are expiring November 10, so maybe some better coupons will replace them. But if they don't start showing up within the next couple of weeks I have my doubts since Black Friday will almost be upon us.

The Budd Boetticher set has finally gone to 30% off. I picked it up using the $5 off coupon and the site took the $5 off twice, both as one of my "discounts" (where coupons and membership discounts usually are) and at the end of the order.
EDIT: I wouldn't recommend using the $5 off coupon expecting it to be $10 because my email receipt went back to being only $5 off.

While I'm here, another thumbs up for LASERMOVIES, the reason I've just renewed my membership.
