Borders 30% Coupon Expires 9/10/2006

NicE!!!!!!!

Thanks OP! I can use that to complete my Bleach manga collection.

Here's a 30% coupon without the membership requirement: www.visitborders.com

Would be great if I could get them to accept them for 2007 Entertainment Book, but they always seem to turn down.

these Borders coupon posts are essentially worthless.. you have to be a Borders reward member to use them.. and if you are a Borders reward member .. you get this coupon in your email automatically....

I recently discovered that clearance/bargain bin items can be used with this type of rewards coupon. I always thought the 30% etc. coupons were only useful for 'non bargain-bin' items and from the regular retail price.

Need to sign up for rewards coupon, which is really easy to join.

Please post that you need to have membership with Borders as this coupon is pretty much worthless here at FW except for a very few individuals. (hence, why shop at Borders when you can just buy at Amazon?)

Dude, the membership is completely free and painless, hence, it's available to everybody. Just grab a card. There are no forms to fill out or anything. Signing up online is completely optional, and just allows you to get more coupons emailed to you.

As for why you would shop in-store instead of Amazon, some of us still like the feel of browsing in-person for books, like going to a library or other such "outdated" practices.

at times you get better prices on certain books (usually non-fiction) even compared to discounters and used books sites when using these coupons. second, bargain section books are discounted making them uber cheap. third we may all be cheapos here of FW but there are times when we want to buy something on impulse and go home with it instead of waiting for it to arrive by mail...

Places like Amazon usually don't discount mass market paperbacks, because they're only around $7-$8. So with the 30% off coupons Borders provides sometimes (unlike B&N's rare 10% off coupons), even with tax, it'll be a good deal. Plus you can get the book right away, you don't have to try to buy $25 worth to get free shipping, and browsing is always fun.

That's exactly the type of coupon they will claim is fake. Stick with the standard coupons people.

Entertainment Guides are sold at or near cost, like magazines and newspapers. The margin is under 10%.

Entertainment Guides are sold at or near cost, like magazines and newspapers. The margin is under 10%.YMMV with Entertainment Books. I got one last year with a 25% off coupon, but remember others posting that they got turned down.

thanks!

Did the cashier scan the barcode and it went through? Usually the other coupons, they would have to enter a code into the system.
