    ...same here,

    Sometimes it takes a while for these offers to work properly.  I'll check again when I get up later.

    So is it supposed to be quadruple tokens today? Because we normally get double tokens on Monday and Tuesday. So "Earn twice your usual tokens for your purchases today!" should actually be 4x tokens. But my cart shows the same old tokens I always get on Mondays. I won't hold my breath on this one but I thought I would ask anyway in the off chance Daz actually delivers on their ad copy for once. Just once. I know, too much to ask. 

    My thought was it's the normal double-tokens Monday, but they're drawing extra attention to it now with a carousel banner. Buuuuut it'd be cool if it was indeed a 4x tokens day and they just have to fix something first..

    Good day to use the PA coupon, if you haven't already and are intending to make a purchase. Gotta nab those good non-code sales when they pop up!

    Alas my D+ expired last week. But I still got some unexpected good fortune over the weekend and scooped up some items I wanted at attractive prices. So now, I'm playing with my stuff and fresh rendering should happen soon.

    The "original" price of the Mad Door prizes runs from around 99 cents to just under $3.

    It doesn't make any sense to use a coupon code to get a $2.99 price?!

    And no stars are needed? 

    How can I tell if I got any stars?!

    Other ways to see if you have a star:

    1.  If you are on today's sales page, go to the Your Shooting Star item & put it in your cart (click the cart item below the image). If it shows $4.99 on the checkout page, you have a silver star; $2.99 a gold star.

    2. Go to the Order page in your account. If you've made 1 purchase over $1 on one of the previous 3 days, you have a silver star. If you made 1 purchase over $1 on 2 or 3 of the previous 3 days, you have a gold star. Purchase doesn't get a star until the following day. So to have a star today, the purchase/s on Friday, Saturday, & Sunday count. 

    ****

    Mad Door Prizes: if an item currently sells for less than the $2.99/$1.99 coupon price, I suggest buying it separately and use the code for something in the selection at a higher price. 

    Alternately, if you are just buying the minimum to get or maintain a star, don't bother with the coupon.

    ...yeah picked up a couple items and got the usual 2 tokens instead of 4. There are times I wonder about their promotional copy writing when it seems to instill confusion.

    I think the onsite is just a reminder of the (heretofore) regular Monday double tokens, I don't have four in my cart. The ormo page is about extra discounts on PA items, matching the token rate for DOs.

    If you’re going for today’s gift card discount and have a Daz+/Premier membership, the Daz+ item discounts can help make the buy-in fairly cheap—if they are of interest to you.

    Getting the 2 “New Daz+ Releases” for either Tuesday or Friday, can come in quite low (since buying the pair together adds 30% discount to them) and cover 2 of the 3 “New Releases” needed for the 20% off gift card discount. (Friday’s pair is slightly cheaper, but I was more interested in the Tuesday items, myself. $4.32 for the pair after “star” discount.)

    Then just sort the “New Releases” by Price Low-High and find the first item you want, to get the third item needed for the buy-in.

    Thanks for the reply, but it's really hard to understand. My language is Italian.

    The Daz shop has been offering double tokens on Mondays for a long time, they're just advertising it on the front page now.

    Today's special (your screenshot) makes the token discount bigger than usual in the Mad Artists category.

    You can compare to the normal discounts here: https://www.daz3d.com/daz-tokens#tokens-howto-step-3

    I think its actually worse that that, the subtext is that double token Mondy and Tuesday is coming to an end soon. Because why else would they pretend like this is not the normal, when its been the normal for a year now? This is how they would do it, pretend like its a special deal today "look you get double tokens today", and then next week or maybe even tomorrow, double tokens will be ended, and Daz will pretend like it never existed.

    A definite possibility; but I hope it doesn't happen.

    If I'm already a Premier Member, but wanted to take advantage of the 20% discount on membership (to extend my existing membership that goes 'til June), how does one do that?  I don't see a way to "add" a membership to my cart.

    I don't know, but you're more likely to get an answer from Daz through the moderation team by posting in the reporting thread:

    As far as I know, if you have an active membership, you can't buy it with a discount, as it's for new clients. angry (I asked around the X-mas sale)

     

    Moreover:

    Super Deal on Memberships

    20% off* the Annual Premier Membership
    with any Newly Mad Release

    JOIN PREMIER

    Items must be simultaneously in cart for discount to apply.

    How do you put the membership and the newly mad release into the cart at the same time? cool

    https://www.daz3d.com/subscription/membership takes you to the page where you need to enter your credit card details, and you don't see a cart.

    Hard refresh the page, the offer was updated so now it aplies if you own a Newly mad item (so it requires two orders in all).

    OS appears to be the same as it's been this month, 1142 items compared to the usual ~3200.  Mostly PA items are missing - They're back in the pool for MM promotions.

    Given that I have purchased a number of PA items for less than 0.99 (the lowest Outlet price) during MM, then we are probably better off with them sitting out of Outlet this month.

    I'd say that we definitely are better off as customers.  That said, with the insane way some of the discounts have been stacking, I have to wonder about whether it's a positive or negative for the PAs when I'm filling my cart with $25-45 dollar items at 90-95% off...  granted, it's ridiculously cheap, but on the flip side, I'm buying a lot of stuff I would never have bought at "regular" or even "normal sale" DAZ pricing, but am willing to splurge a dollar on for kitbashing and background characters.

    Everything in my wishlist was on sale two days ago. Tax money comes in and it's all back at full price.

    I have the opposite problem, lots of stuff on my wishlist is on sale today but I have to save my money for taxes.

    Watch the weekends for storewide catch-up sales, there'll surely be a few more before the end of March Madness.

    ....about a week ago of so it was something like 14 - 16 pages.  I didn't buy anything from there in that time.

    .. ..however as I don't find most of the Newly Mad releases all that interesting (particularly G9) along with being on a somewhat limited budget, I primarily stick to items I'd actually have use for so I don't get that extra 50% discount.

    At least it will be easier to browse if it has. It desperately needs a filter so we can sort by character or prop or environment etc.
    Can't help but think they'd sell more if people could find stuff easier.

    Hmmm... I could get Sigrid 9, the dress, and textures with it, along with 2 still new that actually interest me, my Daz+ DO coupon and three tokens for $15.72 (without the still new the cart is $15.90, so I might as well get them). The question is: do I want any of those things enough to get them? The answer: probably not. And it's a "skip buying" day for the star collection, so even less incentive.
    I'll likely sit on the cart for the day and then decide.

    "Get a free Nordic ship."

    Do tell? The last Viking ship had an off-center mast. But this one seems to be invisible.

    That means you already own both ships that are on the plate here. Same for me, alas.
