    ...yeah Jack just had to release Aslan Court 2, Lisa put a lot of her plants on sale for 99¢, and Daz sent me another 5$ coupon I have to use by tonight.

    They're sending you coupons? You have a friend on the inside? :)

    You just have to be a PC member and buy lotsa stuff apparently. The coupons are all tied to "buy $X DOs and get $5 off. It's stuff I want so... (shrugs) Gift horse and all that. I take my perks where I can get 'em. :)
    ...ahh , Just saw that I have to buy 20$ worth of DOs to get the discount. The only DO stuff I have in my cart are PC items like Lisa's plants and Jack's Aslan 2 which one cannot use coupons for purchasing.

    Guess I could get D5 for 15$ though D3 works pretty well for me with Genesis.
    The only stipulations I can find is DO items and "*excludes gift cards" Try throwing some $1.99 items in your cart Kid, and see if it works. Nothing to lose except a few seconds. :)

    Coupons do not work with $1.99 items, or with the Value Category items...that is stated in several places and they've made sure we know it, too. Of course, if they make an exception, then that would prove that they can. I don't think they'd want to do that.

    Not wishing to belabor the point but this quote is from a Members Only thread about the coupon in question:
    Greetings,
    It works on PC items.

    Including the $0.99 botanicals.

    I'm not complaining; I just got basically 4 PC items, including 2 of the new ones, and a dozen older botanicals for ~$15.

    Just a success story here. The ad didn't exclude 'em, so I tried it.

    -- Morgan
    Apparently some people are having trouble with it and some (like myself) aren't.. The coupon rules are governing the PC monthly coupons. The coupon in question is not one of those.

    Thanks, TJohn, I hadn't seen that thread so I didn't know. HIstorically no vouchers or coupons were ever useable for PC items. But I guess they make up rules as they go along. I'm glad you could get some things. I can't spend that much right now, though.

    I believe the Monthly Coupon rules were worked out through negotiations with the PAs, as the former voucher system was cutting seriously into the PAs ability to make a living off their products. At least that is what I recall it all being about. Thus the DO restrictions in their use. It does seem only fair that PAs can earn a living from their hard work, and the PAs agree to periodic Store Sales, Flash Sales, etc.

    I plunked my coupon -- if it is the one which came with a horse-themed word, and piccy of a horse -- to 26 Lisa's Botanicals items. :D

    Exactly! The reason the new coupons can't be used the same way is that they couldn't figure out how to make it work right. It would take money from the PA as well as from DAZ3D.

    ...and for some reason there was something I heard about Magento not being able to support the Voucher system for some reason never fully explained other than "it can't do that".

    LisaB's Sale is a Sale buy her so all the 99 cent items count as DO items. I used mine to get many of her items and they were the only DO's in my cart.

    Thanks! It's going to be tricky but there is a way out, if the timing works out right.

    I'm happy to hear that. I hope it does work out for you.

    Dana

    Short of the FAX from the IRS not reaching my company on time, I'm in decent shape to move ahead and resolve this without having y paycheck munched on. :)

    What a PITA, though. :-S

    does the first bird chirpie in the morning wake up all he other birds? and all the replies are variations of "hey we're trying to sleep here" "you woke the babies and i'm fresh out of worms"

    I think the first bird would be the "early bird", and probably doesn't chirp until he/she has already gotten breakfast. The first chirp probably says, "Haha, I got the best food while you were still sleeping!" :-P

    Dana

    They all seem to wake up at once here :lol:
