Does anyone know if you can use one of these coupons on a pre-order?

 

You should be able to do so...

 

Thanks. I'm gonna try, at least.

 

I've used them on many pre-orders. And I have it shipped to the store, so I don't have to pay for shipping (unless the total is over $25, which makes shipping to your address free).

 

Or if you joined the Borders Rewards Plus, or whatever it's called - if you do that, EVERYTHING you order online ships free!

 

Excellent, thank you! The new Hendrix box will be mine for $36 ........ can't beat that with a stick.

 

Well that didn't work out like I had planned. It seems that IF the item is already discounted, which in this case it is, at $49.99, then you get 33% off of the LIST price, which is $66.99.
So you can get the Hendrix box for about $48 (after 7% NJ sales tax), which still isn't a bad deal, but really not that much cheaper than you can get it from say, Amazon.

Oh well .........

 

Free shipping Sunday and Monday? Check it out. What I find even more interesting, in smaller type:

So Big Brother can track our every move via our cells when stores around the corner can instantly generate discount coupons for us. Not good ...

 

They used to do this. For some reason, a few years ago they stopped allowing it. Good to see it back. It's a hassle sometimes to have to print one.

 

Did anyone else get an email with $10 free Borders Bucks that expires on (I think) the 23rd? It says it's online and in store but I can't figure out how to use it.

 

I think it is for current members that upgrade to a Barnes & Noble type of paid account, with the $10 being an extra coupon in return.

 

Yeah, that's classic Borders pricing and coupon policy which does severely limit the bargains you can get through Borders coupons. Usually Amazon will have a price lower (or slightly higher) than Borders "sale" price and they don't require sales tax. But in this case Amazon's $53. price for the new Jimi box set is bested by the Border's deal (a 40% coupon would be great now).

 

It is tied to your rewards account. When you check out at a Borders store, you can request the clerk to apply the $10 discount to your purchase. It also works on the website, it is available on the page you input your credit card information.

I guess they'd take that for boxed sets. If they get the new "Darkness" box in store, I know what I'll get with it!

 

Do you think a multi-disk box set would qualify?

 

I looked closely at the coupon and saw nothing that said it WOULDN'T. Normally they'd have fine print to exclude boxed sets, but that wasn't there.

The only question would be if the clerk claimed it wasn't a CD set since it includes DVDs or Blu-rays...

 

I just called my local Borders, & they do have 1 copy in stock, which they are going to hold for me. The guy on the phone told me that they would take 40% off of the list price of $70, for a total of $42 + tax.

Edit: Sorry, what I am talking about is the new Hendrix box set, but I am sure that any other CD box set would apply.

 

Great news, thanks.

 

I was able to use the 40% off for the Springsteen box. Keep in mind that's 40% off Borders' inflated price but it still works out cheaper than anywhere else.

 

Is there a difference between the $113.99 version http://www.borders.com/online/store/TitleDetail?sku=886977652523

and the $133.99 version? http://www.borders.com/online/store/TitleDetail?sku=886977823022

 

I am gonna guess Higher priced is the Blu-ray edition ??
