Entertainment Book company files Chapter 7 backruptcy

[Bete]

a couple of days ago. Chapter 7 is liquidation. Abruptly, the doors were closed on over 500 employees without notice. No statement at the time of this thread has been released yet.

I've been an avid fan of these coupon books for over 25 years. No one seems to be able to answer right now, whether or not the current year coupons will be honored any where.

A government agency has stated that a coupon is a form of advertising and must be the truth; so, hopefully your coupons will be honored.

I have 2 books myself, right now. I'll be using some coupons on March 15. Infact, I'll be using the coupon book for this next week. If I have any issues redeeming coupons I'll let you know, here.

This is all I know. If anyone else can add, here, please, do so.

I wonder if it effects us or if Canada is a seperate company?

There should be no impact when redeeming the coupons. The company sells space in the book but I do not believe they get any money when coupons are redeemed.
In my area, the Entertainment books are not as popular as the Enjoy the City books.

I do feel for those that lost their jobs.

a coupon tonight from the book. Hopefully, this is a good sign.

Sad to hear this I would always buy two books one for me and one for my parents. They are older and not computer savvy so this helped the out alot!

Lovely... I just bought our local book on March 10th and thought it was odd that I haven't received it yet.. hopefully it's still in the mail.. grrr

We bought the Orlando edition (used it for our Christmas trip, was planning on using it again in August). I have emailed some of the vendors (specifically Showcase of Citrus, Congo River, Pirates Cove and Putting Edge) and all have confirmed in writing that they will continue to honour the Entertainment Book offers despite the bankruptcy.

I also see no reason why the companies would not honor the coupons. They pay to advertise in the book. Would be bad PR not to honor they until the expiration dates.
