Myfrogger,

I started at the eBates.com site and followed their link to the giftcertificates.com site. I then set up to purchase 2 $2500 supercertficates with myself and the giftee. When I got to the checkout the coupon code (not supercertificate code) was enterted there and I got the additional discount 15% with the code.

Then using their 10%off200, I bought specific certificates from Blue Nile which got me 27 $1000 certficates for each of my $2,500 supercertificates, with $70 left over from each. Which I used to buy Starbucks gift cards.

It worked without a hitch for me.

Did you get the starbucks during the same redemption as the Blue Nile or were they two seperate redemptions? I was not able to get starbucks as it said they weren't compatible with the supercertificate.

Did those as 2 separate transactions. I had $70.00 left on one of the Supercerts and bought a $50 Starbucks card.

Is there an easy way to list what you can redeem a supercertificate for? It's not very clear from the giftcertificates.com website.

The EXACT same thing was happening to me when I tried to purchase some of these last night. I thought I was doing something wrong or something. Glad to hear it also happened to others. I just tried again real quickly and it seems like its working now. Off to purchase some GC's. ^

Code:
Errors:
Please enter a value in the * First Name field for e-SuperCertificate.
Please enter a value in the * Last Name field for e-SuperCertificate.
Email does not appear to be a valid e-mail address. Please use the format [email protected].
Please enter a value in the * Email field for e-SuperCertificate.
Email does not appear to be a valid e-mail address. Please use the format [email protected].
Please enter a value in the * Email Confirmation field for e-SuperCertificate.
Please enter a value in the * Subject field for e-SuperCertificate.
However, if I order the regular supercertificate, no discount comes up when I use the above mentioned code.

I've tried in IE & Firefox with cookies turned both on and off. I've tried multiple computers connected through two different ISPs.

Please advise.

Ugh, looks like 15% off Supercerts have this condition:
Offer not valid on previous purchases, American Express® Gift Cheques, GiftCertificates™ MasterCard® Gift Cards, Amazon®, Best Buy, Bahama Breeze, Chevron, Chili's, Circut City®, EBgames, GameStop, The Home Depot®, iTunes, JCPenney, Lowe's, Maggiano's Little Italy, Olive Garden, On The Border Mexican Grill, Red Lobster, Romano's Maccaroni Grill, Starbucks, Sears, Target or Wal-Mart. Not valid for corporate pricing. Offer is not combinable with any other promotion or offer.
It is hit-and-miss, waywired was just able to get Starbucks somehow.

Hmmm, I'm still getting the same error when I try...cleared cookies and tried different computers, still no luck

Me, too. I called the 1-800 number. After over an hour in the queue, I talked with someone. While she couldn't help with the web site errors, she did place the order for me (it was much smaller than the one I was going to place online).

While she was on the line, I asked what the expiration date on the code was. She said it's 1/1/08. When the website is up again, I might try again.

Interestingly enough, when I use Firefox, I don't get the 15% off. When I use Safari, I do.

Well, I did use a different computer from my work today compared to my personal computer at home yesterday when it failed with that stupid error message when "customizing" the order. So maybe that's why it worked today, but I can't be sure. FWIW, I did successfully go through wiith a purchase of an e-Supercert about 30 minutes ago. Good luck to you.......

Any new SuperCertificate promotions ?
 
Been looking around but have not seen anything

HotAirBus Dec 30, 2008 9:09 am
I have not seen new promotion yet.

JudyS Jan 1, 2009 4:42 pm
I'd say requests for new promotions should go in a new thread, rather than reviving a year-old one and getting peoples' hopes up for nothing.

(Of course, saying that has now bumped this thread as well. Since this promotion has been dead for over a year, maybe a moderator could just lock the thread.)


All times are GMT -6. The time now is 2:51 pm.
