Woo Hoo 1/1! Interesting...I didnt get a countdown clock or anything. I had to reload at the top of the hour to get the "I Want It" button. New process or bug?


alert mods    

Looks pretty lame this year--as might be expected given the constant watering down that taken place over time. Looking at the T&C can't find any mention of Amazon. Note also that coporate cards are no longer valid meaning that a lot of us will be limited to one "household"

Yay, 'won' the PETsMART GC this morning. Can't imagine it'd be on many people's wishlist, but I was about to head out to PETsMART to pickup some stuff for the cats, so this will do nicely. Most of the GCs are linked to ccards (ie. you now get a credit onto your credit card after purchase rather than getting the coupon issued my mail or email to you) so I imagine there will be far fewer people going for these this year. Sadly no Amazon again this year.

Yeah, I don't seem to recall getting the 'I Want It' button until I refreshed the page... I was waiting and waiting for the page to update by itself (like the countdown that appeared last year as it drew close to time). I'm surprised it didn't do that this time around.

Yes, no Amazon is tragic...they've been running their own promo last couple of years, though. Might hold out some hope for something during the actual Wishlist period...

So just wanted to make absolutely sure: is the Wishlist certificates limited to 4 for teaser time frame and then i can get another 4 during the actual promo?

Still PETsMART at 2:58.....shhhhhh, lets not tell anyone about Wishlist so it's this easy later


alert mods    

Can't believe it either. I got one easily even though I don't have pets. Gonna help my buddy save 2000 pennies. Now I'm looking for some coupon to make it even sweeter.

Welcome back, all! Ugh... no Amazon and no Depot. Are these going to be our only WC options (as in none during the actual promotion)?


alert mods    

the Best Buy $150 on $500 statement credit would be good for someone buying a television

but I'm waiting for black friday 2009 for my next set

no, there will be WC during the real promo too

What seems interesting to me is that the % off for the Wish List period is "up to" 25% off, but for the teaser, they are more than 25% off (Borders is 33% off, or 3-8% higher than the coupons they email me every 1-2 weeks). Of course, you would have to use within a couple of weeks - they expire November 30. And based on the language, it sounds like you could get up to 4 teaser credits and up to 4 wish list certs.

Ahhh... Wishlist. When everyone at their job tries to participate while not getting fired in the process.

True, true....

I got one of the Borders certs at 10:30 am. Clicking at 9 am didn't work...looks like they may be releasing them in waves again

Doubtful. It's just harder to get them at 9 am than it is an hour and a half later. A lot of people get WC and then release them, but an hour later it's just whoever wants a lousy certificate!


Say, did anybody notice the terms on tomorrow's BB cert? It's $150 credit when you spend $500, but the T&C says it only works for TVs $799 & up!

Just got the coupon for $150 over $500 spending at best buy.
