..,yeah, I saw your previous post about this. Must have been early, early morning (like when I was still asleep) where I live. Put it on the Wishlist so I can keep a better track on it.
There was one time a few years ago when I got an annual membership for 12.50$
Most of the time when I see a discount it is usually the 30% one which is still a big expense in one lump for me.
Good point about the $70. In my brain it's still $100, which was the old PC club price... yow, I feel old. And there's no argument that, of the two clubs, the PC+ gives you more bang for your buck. BUT... Prime still works out to just $2.50 a month, so even if you only use the 20% off coupon on a $15.00 sale once a month, you're more than breaking even and Rendo has gotten very aggressive with their prime only discounts over the last two years. In the end, either club is like buying a COSTCO membership... a bit of a pain up front but ultimately well worth it if you shop there.
For what it's worth, I'm currently averaging a 86% discount rate according to DAZ deals, but that number is pretty vague considering how many "free" items one gets that one will probably never use and the hidden discounts of buying GCs on sale. In the end, the entire methodology of the DAZ store is built around base prices that are... I won't say inflated, but certainly much higher than anyone who shops carefully has to pay if they exercise a little restraint and not buy the latest spraklies the instant they go on sale. On the other hand, that strategy clearly works for them so I don't expect it to change.
Oh, I was heavily into couponing a few years back. Got over $16K in free stuff the first full year. Then I started spending summers in northeastern Canada, and couponing is terrible up there. Still like to go "steal" from CVS now and again....use coupons and extra bucks, and you get stuff really cheap.
March Madness just started. If you guys can post and remind others to post any problems here:

This will help problems not fall through the crack and all information posted as much as possible there.
Thanks.
CVS?
...the bottom line is again I don't shop there near as much as I do here so I have to choose one or the other, cannot afford both. In a single month I get the quarterly membership paid back ("with interest") just on the freebies alone. Then there;s the extra discount on DOs (which also includes a lot of figures/characters and clothing) which when they go on sale, the discount is added to the base 30% off price (making the total discount 51 - 58%). Also Iray Shader kits are often PC+ priced and you never can have too many shaders..
...a chain of chemists (pharmacies).
...get ready get set, buy!
If someone buys the dForce Malibu Heat outfit, could you check if it's possible to turn off opacity for the top and sleeves in surface? (in other words, only using the belt and skirt part :) )
Yeah, it's a pharmacy in the U.S., pretty expensive if you don't bargain shop with coupons, but if you know what you're doing, you can get all kinds of things super cheap.
it's cool but nothing for those who already own all the versions of victoria ??
And well known for their very long receipts ;)
Like 3 feet of coupons and extra bucks lol And you can really rack up those extra bucks if you shop strategically.
Used to be Longs Drugs I think (so many drug stores have been taken over now, it is hard to keep them straight), and is also in Target stores now.
I do have to add that they had some items I could not find elsewhere that I loved from California companies. And one time, the pharmacist alerted me that a medicine I was trying to fill, was extremely expensive there, not covered by my civilian insurance, but available at the military base and because I was retired military would be free for me there. Worth an eight mile drive.
You can turn off the sleeves but the top and skirt are one zone. You would need an opacity map or resort to the geometry editor to hide the top.
I made an opacity map, which gives this result:
Thanks Nattaruk! :)
I have a question about March Madness as this is my first year.
Are the offers from the MM banner going to change daily?
Meaning the temp pc items, artist stores and so on?
..saw the banner with the 10$ free DO coupon and 30$ with of DOs free with the purchase of a new release. Went to my wishlist and then remembered my PC+ membership had lapsed last Thursday. Ah well.
Really bummed I missed that 18$ deal on an annual membership that happened a few weeks ago others have mentioned about. Need to wait until next Tuesday (3/3) to renew as finances at the end of the month are tight.
There will be new offers daily. There are no set rules as the sale details change each year, but based on past sales:
Thanks for the summary, it is exactly what I wanted. A general idea of what to expect (mostly of course, as they like to switch things up). From the name I expect that catchup sales include multiple offers that were up to that point.
One last question: do artists ever get more than 50% (60 with the bonus 10%) ?
That's 55% off with the bonus 10%, not 60 (the bonus applies on what's left after other discounts are applied).
The "main section discounts" usually stay the same on most days, but there may be special offers.
I have like 20 items from OOT in my wishlist. I keep waiting for a nicer discount than 50-60% to get them.
I just hope this March Madness is the time for it to happen.
it was true madness today as I could not even get into the site until 4PM. tried all day knowing MM had started ... but now I'm madly spending my store credit
Just a note. You CAN renew PC+ early, and still get credit for the full year.
I've done this twice now, when memberships were on sale for a decent amount (say 50% off). My expiration dates still fall in March (of 2021 currently) but I did my renewals in November/December during the annual PC+ sales.
I would have loved to have jumped on that $14 deal, but I didn't notice it, plus I'm good for the next year anyways...
Yes, buying a yearly renewal adds 1 year to your current expiration date, the year doesn't start at the purchase date.
Thanks to DAZ for the 'makeup' coupons, appreciated.
...yeah but the annual is currently 70$, far out of my budget particularly near the end of the month. I didn't know about that deal either until after the fact The only discount I saw since the beginning of the year was 30% which was still too expensive.
So... these "key items" do you have to have all of them? or is having 1 enough? because two of em are pro bundles I really was not interested in, and the other is a bundle of two items I am really only interested in one of, so...
In my case, i just had one of the prereqs, but I didn't grab any new items, just Sisi, which should help my 'new item quota' for the next couple of days. From the 'legalese' text, I don't think the 10% off applied to the bonus item, but I grabbed Sisi for cheap thanks to the extra 70% off
Last year, the 'if you bought any new release in the last 3 days' came into play a lot during MM as I remember, so I'd suggest that people pay attention to that one. In my case, I grabbed a new item a couple of days ago, so I was good to go, and Sisi should help me meet that prereq for the next couple of days. I was mainly after a freebie at the time with the new item I grabbed over the weekend, but it set me up nicely for easing into MM.
Of course, if the new items don't interest you, that won't help, but new PC+ items might be a nice alternate choice to keep you in the pink, if you are a PC+ member...
I had all of the Victorias already, so there was a purple GC discount banner in my inbox, but I had already banked a bunch of store credit at a much higher discount, so the banner wasn't useful to me. But for others, well say 20% off is better than 0% off, and when you are stretching your Daz dollars, every little bit helps.
Thanks agian for the 'thank you for your patience' coupon Daz sales team! Grabbed a cool hairstyle that I wanted, along with a couple of other things that I'll probably use at some point.
