Thank you for pointing out the obvious instead of putting an extra minute into your post by adding a less obnoxious explanation

Clearly my query was based on people continuing to post about their success with the promo code long after it supposedly expired.

As I've got better things to do with my life than spend countless hours on FT posting obnoxious replies to people's questions I suppose I must have missed the obvious fact that the offer was no longer in operation.

Time to spend some quality time outside...
