I got two emails from them--the first was for 40% off a book, the second was for 40% off anything: http://www.bordersmedia.com/coup/coupon_40item0220.asp

I was able to use the 40%-off coupon and combine it with the Sony $10-off coupon to pick up the Spider-Man Trilogy BD for $45.79. I actually got it for $35.79 since I also had $10 in Borders Bucks

Thank you dx23 and Kyle for posting these!
Are these coupons in store only? I wanted to pick up a box set, but it is listed as out of stock at the stores nearest to me. If I need to I'll call them up later and see if they maybe only have one on the shelf and it's not showing on the online inventory.
edit to add: I gave them a call and they don't have it in stock, I'll have to keep waiting for a good online deal here or elsewhere. (I'm looking for the David Lynch Lime Green Set, anyone know of any good deals on it?) Thank you to all who continue to post the coupons!

Yea, they are both in store only.
There's a pricey book I want, but it's NIS within 100 miles of me....oh, well.

How's Borders.com in fulfilling pre-orders? Do they ship before the release date or the same same an item is released? I'm asking this because I pre-ordered Akira BD and I don't want to get the second printing.

I pre-ordered The Dark Knight and I got it 3 weeks after it's release date. That was my only experience with pre-orders from Borders.

I got shipping notices for Love Hina and Kurau, but not for Akira. I think that I'll swing by Best Buy and pick up a copy just to be safe.

I haven't read the whole thread but I just used this one the other day. One time use so I'm looking for another.
25% off the list price of one item with Coupon Code: IPL1255 (Exp 9/30).

Anybody know what happens to Border Bucks orders if they get canceled? I ordered Sukiyaki Western Django Blu-Ray almost a month ago with the 30% coupon, and they haven't filled it yet. I don't want them to cancel the order, and I'm screwed out of my Border Bucks...

Unfortunately, I think you are right, if your order is canceled you will lose your Borders Bucks. That's why I always use them in the store, on an item I am sure I will keep.

I just noticed on the Borders website, a Borders Rewards Perks Plus membership, available for an annual fee of $29.95. Will this be the end of 40% off coupons for those who do not pay the fee?
Borders Rewards Perks includes:
• Access to everyday offers
• Value-added offerings, ranging from "up to 10% off” coupons to free shipping and the like
• A selection of offers that is updated every week
• Free membership
Borders Rewards Perks Plus includes all Borders Rewards Perks benefits plus:
• Access to premium offers
• Value-added offerings, such as coupons for discounts of up to 20%-50% off select items, free shipping, gifts, and other unique privileges and benefits
• Invitation-only VIP shopping (specified times are available in the offer details)
• Exclusive access to private events
• Information regarding new product launches
-------------------------------------------------------------
Update:
I would like to apologize for any confusion I caused with this post. I like shopping at Borders and I often use the 40% off coupon on items other stores normally do not discount. When I saw the Borders Rewards Perks Plus membership for $29.95 on the Borders website, I was worried Borders was going to do like Barnes & Noble, and start charging for a membership that included better discounts and coupons. I didn't realize that Borders Rewards is different than Borders Rewards Perks or Borders Rewards Perks Plus.
Borders Rewards membership is not changing. It is free and 40% off coupons will still be available to all members in the future.
Borders is a great store that deserves your support.

Re: The Official Borders Coupon Thread volume 2 - Updated Weekly
While the company I work for has been known to spring things on us without warning, this would be beyond stupid and I think they are aware of that. I rather think they'd be prone to denying the use of them to employees before charging customers for them.
Still, they'd have to merge BR and BR Perks, THEN justify the cost of BRP+ for people.
I think that's a little unrealistic.
