Enjoy your merchandise at the cost of others.......

You can still save the $15.00. All you have do is call, place your order, and give them the info that's on the coupon.

I must have missed something. What happened here?

 

[UncleKyle]

Yeah I missed something too

 

[catsrule]

holiday code, 15.00 off, EVERY order....just order one thingie at a time, only pay for S & H. Disney store online.

That is the short version.

 

[Kaos Creator]

Is ANYONE going to fill us in on what we missed out on???

 

[aahmom1]

What coupon?

 

[catsrule]

just keyed in holiday for the discount.

 

[UncleKyle]

Wow, nice way to beat the system

 

[catsrule]

will they still give us the purchases now, that is the ?.

 

[Kaos Creator]

I ALWAYS miss the good deals!! Teaches me for watching movies all day and not doing anything I just went and tried it for fun, but no go ;(

 

[catsrule]

Think they made a big promotion boo-boo. Someone got a $25.00 gift card for $10.00.

Hey, I wasn't trying to beat the system. I got an online coupon code by e-mail. It stated one coupon per order, not one coupon per person. It was pretty clear. It was also a great deal, not unlike some of the Disney stores fantastic sales in the past. Maybe they weren't expecting the response they got, but I think they knew exactly what they were doing when they did it.

They were probably trying to clean house. I'm sure they knew what they were doing, at this point large retail operations must know all the loopholes when they run internet specials.

Hey you all keep us posted on any more good deals!

just so you know you can still use your card if you call in your order. Not nice to judge others and wasn't the promo for spending $60 not $58 so technically you should not have a card anyway.Have fun shopping

I dunno, flame me, but maybe they didn't expect people to place dozens of orders apiece. I understand the code said one coupon per order, but after the 10th or 11th order, I would have started to feel guilty about getting something for nothing.

Ok, my asbestos suit is on.

No intention to flame, but yes, at first I felt guilty, but then I remembered all the thousands of dollars that I've spent on trips and pins and all sorts of stuff and when you put it in that perspective, saving $70 by using a code is fine by me.

Jeff, does that mean you'd have placed only 8 or 9 orders?

Something doesn't seem right with that explanation. sorry.

I'm getting in late and, I don't know if this was Disney's mistake or not but, I'm just not sure what I would've done myself. So, no flames from me (or for me, please), just wondering.

 

[Mr.MouseFan]

What I meant by my explaination is that it was nice to finally get a significant savings from Disney. I mean, let's face it, Disney stuff isn't cheap and it's not very often you find a great deal on their stuff. If the code was a one per person deal I would definitely feel guilty and probably wouldn't have placed more than one order. However, it did state "One per order". So, I placed 5 orders...

 

[Jeff in BigD]

JF, you're my bud & all, but I have to disagree with you on this point. I don't think anyone was cheating or pulling one over on Disney.

Disney is well schooled in the ways of commerce & limitations on sales, which I'm sure the legal department drills into their skulls. Originally the offer (to my knowledge) didn't state it was a one time shot or that all orders would be bundled, something someone with even half a brain could figure out meant people might divide their orders. If they truly had no idea that this might be a possibilty, then perhaps that's why the company is having money problems & their troubles are much worse than we suspected.



It will be interesting to see if Disney claims this was a glich or tries to pull a switcheroo. I didn't check into it in time, but given my current financial situation, it's probably a good thing.
