I need an easy way to know what I can use my PA and Daz Original Platinum Club Coupons on

It seems that when ever I want to use them on something, its not valid.

    I usually use mine on wishlist items but they don't work on products that are new even to still be on introductory sale. The PC+ coupons I use either on PA stuff or PC+ stuff in my wish list. The DAZ Original coupon must be DAZ Original but not PA and not PC+. Even if it is PC+ and DAZ Original it won't work. DAZ Original only. I usually look for a DAZ Original product that costs as near to $6 as I can fine. The other coupon you have have it add up to $18. The best way to get value from that coupon is to chose non-new items in your wishlist that are PA or PC+ items and buy them on sale so you get a bigger discount. If there are no sales for items in your wishlist then you should have a list of PC+ items that begin I think at $1.99 and go up to I think $6.99 and add as many to your list you need to make $18 so when you check out it will only cost about $12

    You need to build a wishlist though.

    How can you which is a PA item and which isn't

    If it is not a DAZ Originals or a PC+ then it is a PA item.  

    Example typical PC+ and DAZ Original product, see the bluegreen painted face and the bluegreen PC+ in the top righthand margin of the product name: https://www.daz3d.com/queenly

    Example typical DAZ Original product, see the bluegreen painted face in the top righthand margin of the product namehttps://www.daz3d.com/baking-set

    Example PA only product : No bluegreen face or bluegreen PC+: https://www.daz3d.com/hockey-expansion

    Also when you search in you own wishlist you can check a box at the top so that your wishlist will only show PC+ items. The same is true on the main Shop listing of the DAZ Store.

    Now, also both on the main Shop Listing and the Wishlist listing see that there is a set of dropdown filters: The first Dropdown is 'Artist' and at the top of that list is DAZ Originals followed by many PAs. Note however DAZ Originals that are also PC+ items will also be listed so if you sort by price low to high the DAZ Originals that are not also PC+ prices generall start at $6 and up.

    The Save6 coupon should work with that.  The PlatClub coupon will not.  The item does not list "Daz Original" as a vendor (Daz Originals also have a small blue version of the Daz Logo on them)

    The Daz Deals browser add on provides options to sort by PlatClub or Save6 PA, which I've found helpful at times, so you may want to check that out.

    It's not working for me either. I'm trying to use the Monthly PA Coupon on $45 worth of old PA items and it says not valid. I do notice that the active coupons shown are the July ones, whereas it's still tecnically June, at least as far as Daz should be concerned.

    So, apparently the old codes are still in effect, I changed it from 07 to 06. Bit annoying that they switched it over too early. 5am is too late at night to try figuring this stuff out after filling my basket.

    They typically are loaded in your account early but don't become active until the 1st. No doubt the computers are not fast enough to load them all at once on the stroke of midnight.

    Yes, but my point was that it was showing julys code early instead of junes.

    I cannot recommend this highly enough. The Daz Deals browser add-on will do much more than just show you what products you can use your coupons on. But don't take my word for it, or @DaWaterRat's. Check it out here: https://www.daz3d.com/forums/discussion/106296/p1

    I also recommend you use your coupons early in the month. I didn't, when I first became a member, and I found myself wading through page after page of products at the end of the month, trying to find something to use the coupon on... Only to end up getting something that wasn't on sale, and wasn't something I really, really wanted, just so I wouldn't lose the coupon.

    Also—I didn't realize this bit for more than a year—the PlatClub coupon is good on any Daz Original, (not PC+). There are no exclusions and no minimums.

    The only issue you may come across is the store software can't tell the difference between free items in your cart and paid, when applying the coupon to qualifying products. Most of us just avoid using a coupon with a free item in our cart, but I understand you can also just contact Customer Service and get a refund of the difference, (usually as store credit.)

    There are exclusions, at least now. Neither coupon is useable on new items... I don't recall that previously but I do remember not having this sort of issue previous to this month. Every month I fear I resolve to spend less money and this is convincing me that I'm going to have to, until the upgrades from certain PAs for G8 come out anyway. Shape shift is a must have for instance Zev0 is fantastic, I get most of their stuff. What I really need to pare down is my wish list. It doesn't need to be as big as it is.

    The PlatClub coupon can be used on new DO's.  The Save6 coupon cannot be used on new items.  They've always been like that.
