Just In Time For Merry-Go-Round Day: A Borders Coupon

Save 30% on any book/CD/DVD at Borders/Waldenbooks/Brentano's with this coupon, valid through the 24th.

You know the drill (even though no one's ever followed through): Use the coupon, let me know what you got. (30% off $15 is $10.50 ... maybe I'll get Harry Potter and the Half Blood Pudding after all.)

By the way, Happy "Wrong Way" Corrigan Day!

actually - the coupon is for 30% off the REGULAR price of an item. HP & HBP is 29.95 - so you'd end up paying just over $20 (and last time i was at borders this was their sales price). i plan on getting another audio book on CD - either one of the narnia chronicles or an agatha christie book. i'll let you know what i end up getting. JM :o)

$30 is the cover price. The regular price should be what it's selling for before additional discounts are applied. So if you had a frequent buyer card that gave you more discount, the 30% would be off the pre-buyercard price. I've used the coupons on the remaindered books and it hasn't been rung up at cover price minus coupon.

If HP is still in the $14 range after the coupon (30% off $20), then I might as well get it at Wally's -- we Slytherins never miss a chance to exploit impoverished third-world bookbinders.

No. I decided I didn't really need it. Phil wound up getting a Strawberry Shortcake stamper set to give as a present at Saturday's party.
