Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2
If you quoted my whole post I said it was possible the CSR was clueless. However I find it strange when she was looking at my account she was able to know I wasn't getting B&N emails and approximately when they stopped. I didn't give her any information to when they stopped sending the emails. Either it was a damn good guess or she really knew that specific piece of information.

Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2
If they were all that efficient with targeting a specific type of customer, such as only the most profitable, then don't you think they could also see that some of us have used the "one-time use $5 off coupon" multiple times. So after the first use, the B&M CSR would get a prompt rejecting a second use for that account and the transaction would be denied even without 10% members discount.
I'm puzzled as to why only some are getting email coupons. The one I got from a month ago gave me an error message when I tried to apply it. Despite my issues with them I had such a long wishlist of Criterions, CDs, etc. that in the first 10 months of this, my initial membership, I had to make close to 80 purchases; all with some type of coupon or additional discount. If the terms of CC sale remain the same, then I'll renew.

Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2
Does anyone here know when BN has those 20-30% off on one item coupons? They seem to pop up now and then but is there a specific time they are issued? Also, if I sign up for a BN membership will I get those type of coupons right away?

With the exception of membership renewal coupons there is no way to predict when B&N will issue 20% or greater coupons. However it is possible a few may show up within the next few months with the holiday season just around the corner.

Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2
ok, regarding those randomn generated coupons that are up to 70%...I believe I got those emails (have two accounts). One was 10% and another was 15%. Anyone do better?

Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2
I don't believe B&N ever sent out any of those 70%, or other coupons I ran across last week. Probably the coupons you received are the current member and non-member coupons they just released.

That's one of the new current member coupons I already have posted on the first page that anyone with a active membership can use.

Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2
Lasermovies, you have this in the section on bookstore links
"The offer is restricted to Books, DVDs, Music, Textbooks, and Giftcards."
So you can buy gift cards at a discount thru the links? If so is AAA included?
Thanks in advance and thanks for all you do with this thread. You have saved me tons of $$$

Bought Battlestar Galactica: Seasons 4.0 & 4.5 bundle ($53.99) using a 10% non-member coupon code (K3V7M4E) and a $25 B&N giftcard I earned from Speedway/SuperAmerica points = $26.75 total. -kd5-

I saw this coupon code at the Sony Blu-ray/Rewards web site for B & N: "U3K8Y7L" for a 15% discount and expiring "10/15". I haven't tried it nor can I verify it's accuracy.

Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2
Is anyone who follows this invaluable thread buying many ebooks?
I'm hearing mixed reports about affiliate kickbacks ala the now defunct bing, mr rebates, etc. with ebooks. You CAN use gift cards with them now, but AFAIK there are almost never any coupons for them. Part of the lack of coupons is due to an agreement that Steve Jobs set up with the big five publishers not to do any discounting (sigh), so that's unlikely to change soon.
