I'm buying a 5891 creator house right now and I just used the coupon code N7K9R7V and it's working - %30 off a toy item, and it counts on this Lego set. I'm about to use the Groupon too...

EDIT: Aaand the Groupon is still pending, so I can't use it. Guess I'll try again in a day or so. :cry:

You can use up to three giftcards per order and that's all a Groupon is.

Groupon limits you to one, but I heard you can gift them to other email addresses, so you can try that, or just create another account. Groupon limit is 1, BN limit is 3.

I haven't tried, just what the website says.

I tried placing a few groupon orders with the same email address and it seems to work. Gave me a confirmation code for each order but says it can take up to 48 hours to process.

I was thinking about ordering several and getting the PoP castle and the Space Police base for $60ish, but on Slick Deals people were ordering Nooks and things and used a few codes and all their orders were canceled. But BN was canceling their orders, not Groupon.

I know the groupon is gone now, but how exactly do you get two groupons? Can you make multiple groupon accounts with separate email addresses?

Yep.

Should I get the Passenger Plane for $20ish or the Apple House for $24?

Thanks for the code. I used it on Rise of the Sphinx (was 10% off anyway), then used my Groupon GC for a total of $17.54 + $10.00 (amount I paid for GC) = $27.54. That's 45% off.

Ok I got my Groupon. But turns out I only got one. So maybe it is only one per email address.

I didn't buy the groupon so this is my speculation only. I believe it is one per e-mail account. But I think you can buy some as gifts....so maybe you can "gift" it to your spouse/friend/whatever as long as it is a different e-mail.

In the past you were able to take advantage of multiple groupons of the same deal b/c they appeared under different cities (there have been ones for Canvas on Demand, Bath and Body Works)...Boston one week, San Fran another etc. Perhaps they cracked down with the B&N one.

Testing it now and YES it works on preorders for Pirates of the Carribean sets it seems. The 30% off doesn't work on the preorder though. I really need to save up but close up pics of the Queen Anne set, and also The Mill set are tempting me more and more plus now this Groupon...

Did you guys watched the Groupon Super Bowl commercial?? that wasn't nice...

Yeah, I was able to purchase several Groupons from different cities that had the BN promotion (one coupon per city). You could also create several accounts with different email addresses and use the same credit card.

Just signed up for Groupon and 'purchased' one. Had trouble using it, but the says I just have to wait some time before using it (even though it says available on groupon.com).

Do I put it in under promo/coupon? Or do I list it under the gift cards?
I have mixed feelings about new releases: I can't wait to see and get the new sets... but I can't figure out where I'm gonna put them or store them.

The groupon will tell you to use it as a gift card...


Btw, anyone else notice that they pulled most Lego from their site?

I'm trying to use that on the Lego Police Station (Regularly $99.99, but $89.99 online), and the code gave me an additional $19.99 off bringing the total to $69.98 (making the discount 30% total instead of the 40% I thought I should get :(

I did the same with the added bonus of using my GroupOn coupon ($20, cost only $10) and Kid's Club birthday gift certificate ($5, free because I spent more than $100 last year and my son's birthday is coming up).
