Cool older dude at my local store let me use the $8, 5 off $50 and two 20% off coupons. The 4 I got came to like $55.
I just got shut down on the $8/40 after the rep made it seem like it would be ok.

I'm sitting here in the food court with the :francis:

I'm gonna hit up my usual spot after work. I won't be denied these $8 :birdman:

It will almost never scan. Has to be done manually, which is why it gets rejected so often.

Ive used it 7 times successfully. Tonight will be 8 :jawalrus:

On a single, $39.99 blu? Only been that lucky a couple times. I make up for it, almost, with GC discounts, %off coupons, etc

Yessir. Well i think one if them was 49.99 but still they technically should not accept it per the wording because they are half off

God damn it I got rejected again. I knew the second I walked in there cuz this guy had rejected me in the past. But I bullshytted around for 10 minutes because I was fearing the rejection.
My worst fear that was that he was going to be working and I made the trek after work for nothing. The nice guy must work the later shift that always lets me use them

I believe that they SHOULD be accept on 49.99 titles. The wording on the coupon says something like "any item with a B&N selling price, before other discounts, including membership discount". There's some interpretation, but I've only been shot down on a more expensive title once.

These dudes need to stop playing around and snatch Tarkovsky from AE.

The GOAT deserves that criterion treatment

He has some nice Criterion releases (Solaris and Ivan's Childhood; they need to upgrade Andrei Rublev tho). And the Kino releases for Nostalghia and Sacrifice are both pretty good.

But I agree, Stalker is probably my most wanted Criterion blu ray title. That would be incredible.
