May I make a suggestion? Since these coupons keep coming back on a frequent basis, instead of always creating a new topic with a specific expiration date, can we just post here when a new coupon is available? I would have simply posted this as an update in an existing thread, but because the OPs gave those threads expiration dates, most people would miss this if I posted there, hence, this new thread.

from VivYip: My suggestion is to subscribe to the thread so that all you need to do is get the most recent post, which hopefully has a decent coupon code. ^_^
After comparing the price for 5 books, found out the price after 30% coupon is the same as Amazon price (which is borders.com). 30% off coupon (or any other <30% off coupon) is not very hot. Most book on Amazon/borders.com have free shipping without tax. You can also use borders gift card on Amazon/borders.
P.S. Many books on Amazon/borders.com actually are 40% off the listed price. Less than 40% off in many cases are not hot.
Borders actually uses Amazon for its online presence. Books are generally a lot cheaper online, but this 30% off more or less brings it to Amazon's price (perhaps even after tax, like for me), but at least you can pick it up now vs. waiting for shipping.
You can try asking them to pricematch their own online price (Amazon's), but YMMV obviously.
For me, I'll wind up getting a book that's $46 online & $59 in the store for $43 after tax. I'll see what they say about PM'ing.
If I want a new copy of a schoolbook, I almost always find them cheaper at Borders with a coupon. They don't discount the textbooks I've sought out at Amazon.

I don't know what kind of textbooks you have been getting. None of my textbooks (Advanced Math, Inorganic and Organic Chemistry, Microbiology, Statistics, Physics, ...) is stocked in any B&M Borders store. If you ORDER a textbook from Border, they do NOT allow you to use any coupon! Amazon has premium prices on all the textbooks I have used, but at least cheaper than local B&M Borders.
