The $50 or $20 discounts don't apply on Bose so this is how I purchased the QC2 from Crutchfield today:

I visited giftcertificates.com and purchased a $250 gift cert for myself. I waited for the gift cert e-mail (about an hour), then called Crutchfield and provided a referral, the gift certificate number provided in an e-mail, and a credit card for the balance:

Item Description Ship Qty B/O Qty Price Amount
018QC2S Bose QuietComfort 2 (Silver) Noise-Canceling Headset
What's Included 1 0 299.00 299.00
000FRNDISC Refer a Friend Discount 1 0 -20.00 -20.00
Sub Total: $279.00
Shipping: FREE
Total: $279.00
Payment:
Gift Card $250.00
American Express $29.00

They're "fair traded"; not much of a deal but at least the gift cert gives extra miles or cash back for the purchase, by getting to giftcertificates.com via a portal like fatwallet.com. The referral discount only applies if you never bought anything on Crutchfield before; Here's how it works:

When your friend sees something they want, they can place an order online and type in your Crutchfield Referral Code on the Payment page of the Checkout form.

OR...

Your friend can call a sales advisor at 1-888-292-2504 and give them your Crutchfield Referral Code and their contact info.


You get a merchandise credit good for $20 off your next Crutchfield order to thank you for spreading the word about Crutchfield.


Your friend will automatically get a $20 credit on their first order of $200 or more to welcome them as a new Crutchfield customer.

You can only get the referral bonus 4 times in one month.

If you want a referral to save $20, just PM me....
