spinlps Posted February 16, 2006 Report Posted February 16, 2006 I typed the wrong dates for the 30% coupons... should read 2/23 - 2/26. Quote
BeBop Posted February 23, 2006 Report Posted February 23, 2006 http://f.chtah.com/i/9/276579820/item0222.htm 30% off any item for members; 15% for non-members through 2/26. Quote
spinlps Posted February 24, 2006 Report Posted February 24, 2006 Here's the actual Borders Rewards coupon... http://f.chtah.com/i/9/276579820/coupon30.htm I think non-members have used these in the past. Quote
Tom in RI Posted February 28, 2006 Report Posted February 28, 2006 I just finished online sign up for Borders membership and took a 30% off coupon which I intend to use for the new Richard Thompson box. I wonder how many people take the cup of coffee instead? Quote

Would appreciate hearing yours thoughts on this set once you get a chance to listen to it. It's on my short list... Quote
spinlps Posted March 1, 2006 Report Posted March 1, 2006 Looks like Borders is really pushing the Rewards program. Next round of couponds will be 25% for members, 10% for non-members. Quote

Tom in RI Posted March 1, 2006 Report Posted March 1, 2006 Hey Bebop, its chilly in here! Free For All, the Rewards proram is free. I understand some may feel that the ability to keep track of everything you buy is intrusive (and it is), but the fact is a ton of retailers are doing the same thing from most of the supermarkets in my area to sporting goods stores, office supply stores ect, ect. Hell, I think I need a man purse just to tote all the cards around. Sundog, I will let you know. Quote
BeBop Posted March 1, 2006 Report Posted March 1, 2006 Hey Bebop, its chilly in here! I'm pondering this. Perhaps there is some slang or young-person's jargon involved, which would explain my cluelessness. Quote
Tom in RI Posted March 1, 2006 Report Posted March 1, 2006 If by "young person" you mean 49... then yes. Quote
Free For All Posted March 1, 2006 Report Posted March 1, 2006 Hey Bebop, its chilly in here! I'm pondering this. Perhaps there is some slang or young-person's jargon involved, which would explain my cluelessness. Simliar to the phrase "I feel a draft in here", meaning there's some harsh words being spoken in the vicinity (probably referring to my pissed-off-at-Borders comment). I think that phrase came from the Lester Young/Slim Galliard era when they were creating a "insider's" jazz language to communicate w/o people knowing what they were talking about. I just get tired of having to join these "clubs" in order to have access to discount prices. More paperwork. Another f*cking card to carry around. And yes, it is intrusive. And I'll probably give in and join up. Quote

I'm not willing to put my buying habits on display/sale for a few bucks. Quote
mgraham333 Posted March 2, 2006 Author Report Posted March 2, 2006 25% off One item through 03/05/06 Quote
BeBop Posted March 2, 2006 Report Posted March 2, 2006 Can't imagine why anyone would prefer this members 25%/non-members 10% through 5 March coupon to the superior one posted by mgraham333, but... http://f.chtah.com/i/9/276579820/03012510.htm Quote
BeBop Posted March 5, 2006 Report Posted March 5, 2006 http://f.chtah.com/i/9/276579820/030125.htm 25% through the 13th. Quote
BeBop Posted March 16, 2006 Report Posted March 16, 2006 25%/10% members/non-members through the 19th http://f.chtah.com/i/9/276579820/coupon0316.htm Quote
Free For All Posted March 25, 2006 Report Posted March 25, 2006 Heads up- Borders is having a buy-three-get-one-free promotion for jazz and classical titles, and they're also having an educator's sale (until March 28th I believe- show an ID or check stub and get 25% off your entire purchase). I was able to use both promotions on the same purchase and it made for a pretty decent deal. For those here who can take advantage of this, you've got 'til next Tuesday (for the educator part of the deal). Quote
BeBop Posted March 30, 2006 Report Posted March 30, 2006 25% members / 10% non-members thru April 2nd. Book http://f.chtah.com/i/9/276579820/25coup0330.htm CD http://f.chtah.com/i/9/276579820/cd25coup0330.htm Quote
BeBop Posted April 6, 2006 Report Posted April 6, 2006 http://f.chtah.com/i/9/276579820/bookcoup_25_0405.htm Hardly seems worth posting these anymore. The usual 25%/10% deal on CDs thru the 9th. 10% off Borders prices for non-members isn't enough to make them reasonable. I suspect members are getting coupons already, directly. Quote

The usual 25%/10% deal on CDs thru the 9th. 10% off Borders prices for non-members isn't enough to make them reasonable. I suspect members are getting coupons already, directly. I gave them the spamtrap email address I use a while back, and I have been receiving coupons directly at that address since then. But when I went to use one of those coupons last week, the cashier asked me if I had a Borders Rewards card. I didn't, but I assumed I'd been signed up when I'd previously given them an email address. The cashier indicated that the cards would eventually replace the online coupons, so it appears that you'll have to be a Rewards member in the future to get the discounts. FWIW, I went ahead and got a card since it was free and they already had my email address (although I did have to give it to them again). Quote
Free For All Posted April 6, 2006 Report Posted April 6, 2006 Looks like resistance is futile. The discounts will be few and far between one doesn't join the Rewards program. Quote
Shawn Posted April 7, 2006 Report Posted April 7, 2006 It only takes about a minute to register online (after you pick up the card at Borders), once you register they automatically give you a choice of gifts...I took the 30% coupon for a CD or DVD. Quote
