Well then I hope it's not the final one. Is the streak supposed to last some days after the 18th or is the 18th the last day one might make use of it?
Today (the 18th) is the last day we can earn the discount; but obviously the discount needs to be useable tomorrow or we would never get to the 21%. Past that how long the discount will last is anybody's guess.
Chrome, but I just checked, and it's not showing up in Firefox either. Do you see it among yesterday's new releases?
We have reported this.
I've to second this. This is pretty much the reason why I only buy "plat club for a day" and byob stuff during this sale - or if there's a good flash sale (which rarely seem to happen when I'm up). Daz makes a ton of these "ooh you get 50% off plus 20% off if you buy this and extra 10% off if you do this" deals which sound like you are getting a really big discount.
When I actually start to count I'm like... umm okay, so I'll be spending monies on the new product(s) AND have to practice mental gymnatics called math (which I hate with passion) to figure out if the sale is actually working as intended. Only to realize I'm pretty much getting the exact same discount as I'd be getting by just waiting for a flash sale/fast grab/special plat club dealy with the added benefit that I don't actually need to buy one or two new products I probably don't need.
I get it makes sense for Daz to build these weird sales since they sell new products by implying people are actually getting special discounts by buying them - when they are usually not. I'm not sure about the US laws regarding this but I'm pretty sure this wouldn't fly in my country where there are quite strict rules about misleading customers with percentage play. FYI: interestingly enough we are not actually getting very good deals lately unless it's for the plat club for the day type deals or a really good flash sale (which I always miss because they happen during US hours). Most of the discounted stuff during sales like this are actually priced higher this year than in previous years. Probably because of inflation.
I still feel Daz is the most reasonably priced store for a hobbyist but these sales seem to have gotten only more complex and frustrating as years go by - and taking too much time and effort to figure out. I don't want to spend an hour to calculate and scroll through all different variations of the sales and offered items to figure out if I'm actually getting a good deal on stuff or not. Because, you know, I'm usually not. I guess that's the point, too.
There are worse deals though such as the "buy all the specific stuff over next week to get a special item at the end of the sale which we are not going to tell you anything about but that most likely is completely pointless" or "buy this bundle with a discount except you are nuts if you do so because all its individual items are regularly sold cheaper than even the best discount the bundle has ever had" deals.
Can't see it there either and it didn't show when I did a search for it even though your link took me to it.
I'm using Chrome

It's there.
The SUNNY-DEAL coupon doesn't work when you apply in the cart. It only cuts the bundle price in half.
Not working at all for me, reported.
Please wait while the order is processing...
Well, I've been waiting for 10 minutes now and it is still processing.
[EDIT] It didn't complete processing after half an hour but the items were present in DIM and I was able to install them so I just killed the DAZ Store web page. The bug-filled store is just one of the things we have to get used to while doing business with DAZ (hence this very thread).
Is it me or the streak count cutoff time is at GMT 0 rather than the Utah time as per any other sale? I've seen my streak go down in the mornings compared to my previous day and now I saw it again going down and I noticed it was few minutes past GMT 0. Too late to noticed given it's the last day though.
Edit: if so it makes sense why i don't have the full 21%. I've been buying every single day in accordance to Utah time, not GMT.
Ok, what I want to know is why for the second time, I am streaking at 6 days and now my cart shows 5 days.. I dont' get it. I downloaded the cart earlier so I could decide which items to buy.. and now some items are $7 more. I put in a ticket when it was doing this yesterday.. and my ticket is gone.. thinking that they fixed it.. which they did, but, now it is back to 5 days rather than 6. Can someone here please assist me?
More reasons for me to belive the cutoff time for the streak count resets at GMT if you didn't make any purchase in a 24-hour period accordance to the GMT day cycle.
Can someone please confirm?
Whoa, yeah! I left my cart a couple of hours ago, and just came back, and it went up in price. It was $16.89, now it's $17.07. And I'm only on day 5. Not cool.
edit: Meh, I bought the stuff anyway. Not going to bother with a ticket for that little difference.
Hey folks.. forgive my frustrations with this.. I would like to say I am computer savvy (some of the time I am :-)..but as I age not so much).. so what I did was to buy 2 $1.99 --they don't count for the streak discount items as someone else here in the thread suggested. That reset the streak count (but it did not .. at first.. reset the discount). So I dumped my cart and logged out. Then I logged back in using Firefox instead of Brave (where I have a lot of security addons) and wallaa.. it worked! I hope this helps others having the same issue!! I am at Central time and it was almost 9pm here and I must have done the 1.99 items an hour or so ago. So I am not sure about the timing.
Yeah, same thing. AGAIN. Third day in a row that the Stack-up rolls back a day at some point late in the evening for me, could be 00:00 UTC, or maybe 24 hours after your last purchase. This time I refreshed the promo page, it counted out to Day 6, then it refreshed itself and counted up to only Day 5.
And, yes, buy your DAZ+ for a Day (which don't get the added discount anyway) and the Stack-up should get back the lost day.
So, now, after an order of DAZ+ for a Day, I refresh the promo page, and the Stack-Up goes to Day 5, waits a few seconds, then refreshes and the counts up to Day 6 again. Go figure...
CHB Milan stays at 30% when two new items are in the cart. Feng goes to 40%
The cryogenic chamber stays at 30%, but I don't know when that was supposed to be new, as I haven't seen it on the Sales page.
Gift Card discount currently not working.
Same, gc not working. Also the last part of new releases don't count for the extra disocunt and the items from "52% OFF Select Genesis 3, 8, and 8.1 Males' don't add the stack-up discount.
Both of the above reported.
What's the url to the cryo chamber. When I searched, didn't see one marked new.
https://www.daz3d.com/sci-fi-cryogenic-chamber
First one on the store page now. All the new items I think are officially "still new" items ... and NOTHING is triggering the gift card sale.
Also there's this message on our shopping cart: Unable to load HTML Block Identifier
Also reported, thanks.
Catherine, i'm adding ones from front page. Cryo doesn't but others do. Have specifics?
Well, these two for starters:
https://www.daz3d.com/shopping-street
https://www.daz3d.com/steampunk-penny-farthing-bike
eta: Had also tried this one: https://www.daz3d.com/dforce-lady-cathryn-outfit-and-hair-bundle
The first two are Daz+. Which offer do they not trigger? I have the bundle in the cart showing the extra discount.
Hmm, don't know. Having now a full streak discount but only getting 68% max on friends of sale does not make me enthusiastic for getting much more stuff from my wishlist. Think we even had that discount during the sale.
Also I do need a still new item for this discount whereas I already bought anything of interest from the new/still new section. It's hard to find something once there is only stuff which was already available on Friday.
They're all on the first page of the store ... they are all new ... they are supposed to trigger the discount on the gift card.
The bundle does not do that over here. Have attached pretty picture.
picture removed, not needed now ;-)
Daz is looking at the gift card issue as nothing is triggering it. The bundle is getting extra discount when two or more still new are in cart.
Yes BUT it's supposed to be discounting isn't it. That's what the promo says. 15% off.
