Re: [Digital BW] C84 $50+$20...but where's the other $20?/OT

Don, I'm talking only about the $20 coupon that is supossedly
available online> 

Here is how this works: you select the item, click on checkout,
there's a box where you enter the coupon number 32451881, checkout>
it appears on the screen under the item in the shopping cart, you can
click on "More" for information and this returns this message "The
following coupon has been verified and added to your cart: $20 OFF
PURCHASES OF $75 OR MO 
If you need to add items to validate your coupon you may enter them
below or continue shopping."  
But if you click on "Validate" this coupon you get this message: "
Attention!
You must correct the following error(s) before proceeding:
(CD06) The coupon 032451881, requires an order total of at least
75.00,. At this time the order total is .00. This may be the result
of certain product exclusions. Please review the promotion and
disclaimer for complete explanation on what the intent of the coupon
032451881, is. If necessary, add more products and try again. Thank
you. "

They either have a problem with their website, or simply don't want
to honor this coupon after all this hoopla! 

The other stuff... just "normal" website quirks when the system is
not well designed. 

The additional coupons/rebates are:
- a mail-in $20 from Epson valid through Sept.04
- a mail-in $50 from OD for purchases over $75 before the discount,
which actually just checking their rebate page:
http://rebates.teg-online.com/officedepot/form_search.asp?odserver=www.officedepot.com

doesn't show anymore on their site!!! :)


So be aware, there's no more $50 coupon, and apparently the $20
online coupon!
