Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2
It makes sense they'd extend it, in that the are no criterions released next week. The next one comes out Aug. 4th. There may be extra hurdles for barnes to extend a sale when new items are released during the extension(I remember devils backbone became available during a sale extension a few years ago). So can we say barnes would rather change their sale schedule rather than change their coupon schedule, assuming they are even trying to encourage coupon use?

Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2
I think you’re missing the elephant in the room regarding why there haven’t been any great Barnes and Noble coupons since July 12.
Harper Lee’s Go Set a Watchman debuted on July 14.
The book sold more than 1.1 million copies in less than a week and has probably racked up another half million in sales by now.
B&N is selling the book instore for 30% off plus an additional 10% off for members plus (at most) a members only 10% off coupon = $27.99 – 8.40 = 19.59 – 1.96 = 17.63 – 1.76 = $15.87
B&N is selling the book online for $16.71 and minus the 10% off members coupon brings it down to $15.04
A 20% off coupon would bring the online price of the book down to $13.37.
Figure B&N share of sales two weeks out to be (conservatively) 250,000 copies—if 100,000 of those copies were purchased at $13.37 the loss in revenue would be $167,000.
I’m afraid the Criterion sale is small change compared to those numbers.

Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2
If you got the hardcover version for $9 then you indeed did very well—though I have a feeling that people who wait until after Christmas may be able to get remaindered copies for even less. Atticus is now a member of the KKK in the new book so sales will probably drop off in a few weeks.

Are -20% coupons members-only these days? I haven't received anything but -15% for ages.

Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2
Entirely predictable since Night and the City comes out August 4th. No doubt we can schedule the next round of coupons arriving and having an end date corresponding with the arrival date of Mulholland Drive later this year. That's as much snark as I can muster.

Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2
Apparently per social media updates I have seen the sale may end tonight, 7/27, on bn.com but has been extended in-store through 8/3. I can't confirm this, but wanted to let folks in this thread know about this possibility.

Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2
Unfortunately I don't think we'll know for sure until sometime after 12-3am Eastern and see if the prices revert.
Online Phone reps still saying it ends tonight, but I'm not sure I'm believing they would leave this store only for a week. That's not how they've done in in the past, but there just isn't a way to tell online now. They used to put banners with the sale start/end date up, but I haven't seen that in quite a while.

Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2
Is there a printable coupon we can use for the 20% off for this weekend as I want to buy a book for a dear friend of mine and every little bit helps too. OR can I just mention this code to a rep at the store and then get the necessary discount and just buy said item in the store and save that way? Just wondering and curious.

Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2
ONE last run to the finish maybe
$10 off $75 online code BNSUMMER28
I think expire 7/30 2:59am Eastern, but I'm still checking on the expiration

Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2
Looks like the B&N sale has been extended. The website still shows discounted prices, but haven't confirmed yet with the actual stores yet. Hoping they will confirm it.
By the way, about the member coupons that are supposed to come out Thursday: can I use that coupon repeatedly? I remember a long time ago it was possible but recently it has been one coupon use per membership account. Can anyone clarify this?

Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2
The above code is online only and shouldn't be useable in store at all.
A kenkenobi said, there is supposed to be a new instore/online dual use by Thursday. If you get 20% email coupons I would expect one otherwise I wouldn't expect too many extras of the 20% floating around though some folks may be fatigued/broke and will send you theirs. If there is a 20% the 15 % should be out as well and those should be pretty easy

Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2
The normal email coupons have Unique Id code which make them one time use. There are often (Usually, always) extra 15% coupons though very few 20% codes around so it's not too hard to end up with the same effect. During the Xmas/BF holiday there are often multiuse coupons, but other than Nov/Dec those are rare.

Re: Barnes And Noble Coupon Thread Part 2
If it's the typical 13digit alphanumeric codes then they are supposed to one time use.
Online it almost always is though with some of the website glitches lately that hasn't always been the case. in store it will eventually by a one time use, but depending on how fast the database is updated there have been times when you could get away with it and run it more than once.
More commonly used in store first there is often a delay of a few minutes to a few hours where if you insert the code online it will apply. That rarely happens the other way
