$3 off ANY ORDER is only for NEXT order

Banner is wrong. ANY order is any order. Not your NEXT order. Tested it, said invalid code. So what is it, next order or ANY order like the banner says? (EDIT: In other words, it worked on my first $10 order, but not the second one.)

    BTW, it works on new releases. Picked up the aging bundle for $13.77

    Just realised it by myself. Wrong advertising as usual since the 'remodeling' of the site. Where are the good old days at Daz when you could believe what you read... :(

    It does say any order, not every order. It does not say the coupon is reusable or multi use.

    The qualification is to show you that you can use it for New products as well, hence any order, no exclusions.

    Please note Any when used as a pronoun, any can take either a singular or plural verb, depending on how it is construed

    If the wording had said any orders, then you could have construed it as meaning more that one, but it is definitely a singular order mentioned here.

    What Chohole said. The wording is correct, I'm sorry if you misunderstood. The coupon is single use and can be used on any ONE order. Generally when a coupon is a multiple use coupon we will indicate that. Otherwise it is safe to assume that it is a single use coupon.

    Thanks, I am aware of the vernacular implications. The problem here is the marketing team. Promo should read "of a $10 purchase." Clear, concise, and not using a pronoun with multiple interpretations. "A" is singular.

    I didn't misunderstand, I thought it would be rather ludicrous to do repetitive batches of $10 and get $3 off from DAZ's standpoint. It's nice that they've offered a deal for people who don't want to spend $20, $50.

    Full Definition of ANY (From Webster)
    1
    : one or some indiscriminately of whatever kind:
    a : one or another taken at random
    b : every —used to indicate one selected without restriction

    I always use the New Releases tab at the top of the page- it has the banner that rotates through. :)
