Sure enough, their "Live help" line now gave me the "right" story, saying this time that yes "some" of our gifts certs are NOT included in this promo.
They apologized for the "confusion" they caused. I actually had this in the cart and was nearly headed to checkout without noting the credit was not being applied. Since I'd already stocked up on these with other recent promos, I decided to switch at the very last minute.
They say it'll work with almost anything else. Great!! Sorry for propagation of the confusion.
Updating-
Here's the Email I just received from them:
"Dear Mark,
Thank you for contacting BravoGifts.com. Although the Marriott certificates are merchandised items, it was a company decision to exclude them from the promotion.
If you have any further questions, please feel free to contact us again.
Regards,
BravoGifts.com, Customer Relations"
NO BRAVO HERE!
