    So what is the point of a one day discount of the same 10% discount I have already had all week from another banner? Is DAZ just messing with us now? smh.

    Includes GC now.  Prbly cos Elios release could burn up some people's GCs.  Gives option to restock at discounted price.

    This one is good on gift cards, so I suppose there's that.

    That would be the last 7 days of May? Oh my... How much are you guys spending here? :-o I'm not a frequent buyer with $515.61 spent between May 25th and May 31st.

    According to my messges, the coupon came out on the 30th. So it's not counting the 31st.

    The one-day benefit is the ability to use it on GCs, which you couldn't with the birthday code.

    The Victoria bonus was for "purchase level" in general:

    "Thank you frequent buyer. Because of your purchase level in the preceeding week please enjoy an EXTRA 10% OFF* any purchases you make during the week from June 1st - June 7th."

    That would be the last 7 days of May? Oh my... How much are you guys spending here? :-o I'm not a frequent buyer with $515.61 spent between May 25th and May 31st.

    LMAO, yeah, make me wonder what others are spending now.

    This morning my bonus was 20%, then I get home and find it was changed to 10%. After that disappointment, I'll pass. My credit card will thank me.

    I had no purchases on the 31st, the one on the 30th is for $9.63, so counting until the 29th doesn't change much, that's still above $500 and no extra discount. :(

    Thanks, Daz for the discount and all the freebies today

    It might be worthwhile to send an inquiry to customer service.  Were they paid with store credit? I remember a year or two ago where purchases by store credit were unintentionally omitted when calculating the bonus.

    I spent $15 during that week period..maybe why I didn;t get a coupon. oh well.

    I did use store credit, yes. Sent a message to customer support yesterday, so far only the automated response came. Well, as I said, it's not the end of the world, but I do feel left out, which is never a good thing. :)

    Same boat here. I used store credit as well.

    Just a reminder for those who got the coupon: Today is the last day to use it.

  • MistaraMistara Posts: 38,675

  • AlmightyQUESTAlmightyQUEST Posts: 2,006

    The better one is gone and the remaining one does not apply to a gift card so I hesitated too long even if buying a small amount to use on the G2F stuffs as thought I would 

    however the other 10% does apply to a quarterly PC+ but I just cannot as must not spend, it would be too easy

    escaping a $70 excess data charge on my phone yesterday still won’t justify it

    I just got the Victoria 10% off purple banner today.  I had checked my messages and exclusive offers but nothing before this morning.  I'm very glad I didn't get around to pushing the buy button on Elios yet.  Very strange that this seems to have been given out in phases.

    Victoria bonus is back! Valid until the 14th.

    The first round of coupons expired. I would hazard a guess that there is going to be a potential week-long coupon each week for the "birthday month".
  • AtiAti Posts: 9,188

    Seriously? Okay, I only spend around $90 the previous week, but again: no coupon.

    I spent $202 in May.  It's inconsistencies like this that annoy customers.  Perhaps they are calculating on a weekly basis?  No real way to know though as Daz don't bother to tell any of us.  It would be better if there was some warning e.g., "Spend $100 this week to get 10% off next weeks purchases, spend £200 to get 20% off next week..." and so on.

    However, I don't begrudge you your 20% off - hope you enjoy it.

    I totally agree. I was only sad for missing a full week's worth of extra sales, but missing out on two weeks now is making me very uncomfortable and discouraged. (Which, of course, will lead to not getting a discount the next week--if there will be a coupon next week--because I simply won't be spending that much money due to being left out in the first two weeks.)

    Not sure I'm going to use it actually, unless something really exciting comes around. Spent way too much already, $550+ / 24 orders in may and $120 since then, that may be one of the reasons for the 20% and other top discount coupons I've got the last couple of weeks. Like they say, there's no free lunch.

    Sorry, a typo - it was from June 1 and until now I spent $120 (as my previous post also says). Hope you feel better now... ;)

    considering that the amount I spent in May and the first week of June isn't really big compared to what other people seem to spend here, I am quite astonished that I still get that 10% off coupon for the second week in a row...

    Maybe it's not the AMOUNT you spend that makes it work but the number of orders you make? At least with my buying habits that would make sense ^^

    Before the first coupon, I had 9-8-7 (depending on when you start and stop counting) orders. That's at least one a day on average.

    The only thing I can think of is that store credit purchases don't count. But why offer giftcard sales if that's not a preferred way to buy stuff?

  • mr clammr clam Posts: 707

    I made a bunch of May purchases on store credit and I didn't get any coupons either. Like Ati, I find it easy to write off one coupon, but two is harder and three will be worse. 

  • I just got this banner this morning I see many got this notification days ago.

    Sorry to hear you're not getting discounts.

    Are you converting your GC's to store credit right away?  I don't convert mine.  Just use the GC code each time on the main buy page.  So am not technically using Store Credit.  In my case bought stuff with older GC and bought a new GC each week.  I got the better discount. Maybe that helps?

    I convert it immediately, yes. Gift Cards expire (although they now have a 5-year expiration date, or something similar, not the 1-year that used to be the case) and I wouldn't want to lose them. Store credits don't expire. They might have this side-effect of being excluded from these sales? I hope it's just a glitch--I haven't heard back from Daz yet. The real issue is that it's a downward spiral. If I had the discount, I would be spending more. Since I'm not spending as much, I won't be getting the next coupon (if there is one), and thus I won't be spending as much. I know there were quite a few items from my wishlist on sale last week, I would have bought those if I had the extra 10 or 20% discount. Since I didn't, I left them for another sale, thus last week I didn't spend as much as I could have, ...

    I seriously doubt that Daz will do anything about it though because making this right would be a nightmare at this point. :(

    I'm not saying I'll be spending my money elsewhere, but it does leave a bad taste in my mouth.

    I feel such a whiner, now. :D Ah well, I always knew I was narcissistic. :D
