OT: Discussion

Today my Son and I had a heated discussin or aleast I did,concerning promotional coupons (gimmicks)when purchasing several items IE gun parts. Looking on the total it will say ten percent discount using XXXXX, so you put the number in and it comes back "SORRY NLA" so you continue searching the various web sights for coupons for promotional coupons, under the same name as the original order was placed with the company who allows the discount coupon to be displayed underneath the companies logo.
My son went thru a good dozen or so discount coupons underneath the suppliers logo. ALL OF THE COUPONS STATED "SORRY NLA". What I'm saying it is the responsibility of the supplier to remove the outdated codes or promotional coupons,otherwise you are being played a sucker by jumping thru hoops,trying to find a valid promotional coupon when none exhist. Searching we did find a $15.00 coupon that was credited to our account.Taking into consideration we have done business with this company for over 10 years,and have been happy with their service,up until now. I say its the responsibilty of the web site to remove all the worthless coupon promotions from others sites, so the customer doesn't have to run thru them only to find "Sorry NLA" applies. What say you?

I often search for coupons but most are NLA. Once in a while i find a good one. Were you searching on the manufactures website or just a google search? Cause some of them on google i found to be years old. Just a fact of life i guess.

I'd say it's the companies responsibility to control what happens on their web sites. That said, if all these companies would stop spending so much money on doing these promotions and instead just give a little better price to everyone, it seems like it would make them a lot more money in the end because then EVERYBODY would get the 'best deal', not just a select few.
