I decided to wait until today in case there was a Bonus Punch Monday and what do you know, there's a BPM I looked at the little help article and there's a pop-out thing on the side of the page for more info and one of the questions...
Do Bonus Punch Mondays happen every Monday?Yes, Bonus Punch Monday is a recurring weekly promotion.
So why wasn't it recurring last Monday?
So I'm sending them another email bitching about it.
I'm also a member of Ebates and I finally remembered to use them when I reactivated membership, it said 5% back, not much but a little something. Does anybody else use them? I have a referral number if you're interested
you used to have to remember to go to ebates first, and then the store, now they have a thing you can add on to your browser and it pops up if it's a site that you can get money back at, you just press it to activate it. I love Ebates. I don't even do much online shopping and I get back $5-20 every 3 months. Freaked me out when I used the button tool and it popped up on BFG, lol.

Huh? It figures. i lost 3 punches last month since last week wasn't a BPM. It'll be a lesson to me not to wait until last Monday, but do up the punchcard the Monday before the last one.
I replayed Haunted Halls: Fears From Childhood CE. CE didn't have many extras back then. Besides the bonus I did put a super cool beach scene wallpaper up from the game.
Still working on Black Mirror. These type of games take me awhile to play. I made it to Wales, so far.

I started a new membership and used the EGG code and a PCC to get Dark Dimensions, Danse Macabre, and Dark Tales, all the newest ones. I have 5 punches now, guess I should go ahead and use another PCC to make sure I finish the card, who the heck knows what BFG will do. I'll probably get Heros of the Kingdom 2 with it. I'll still have 2 PCCs left but there's not enough games I want right now to use another GCC to get the other 4 punches.
I was a bit ahead of you when I quit Black Mirror, Lily. I need to finish it because I think I have BM 2 and maybe 3, lol. It is amazing how short on CE content those early CEs were, isn't it? And they used to be $19.99, no GCCs. Even though I love MCFs, I don't think I've ever gotten a CE cause they just don't seem to have much extra. I might have gotten one, but maybe not. I prefer two standard games for the same price, but I'm cheap like that, lol.

You and me both sunshinej. I figured BFG wouldn't have a BPM for a while AND that the sales might just end when they say they would, so I bought 2 CEs and used a PCC yesterday.
I started THE CHRONICLES OF EMERLAND solitaire a few days ago. WOW!! Does that game ever have a lot going for it! I don't like that you have to finish all ten games (a whole level) before you can close out the game.

I used my 7 PCCs that were expiring today and got the punches. I'm thinking I may just use my other three that are expiring this month today as who knows the BPM may not be on the rest of the month.
I finished Gizmos Spooky Adventure. I really loved that one the best so far. It said I had played for 10+ hours but it was much longer than that so I think the timer is off. The Christmas one so far is not grabbing me like the previous two. Perhaps because it is Christmas. lol

i could have sworn I had 7 codes expiring April 10, but now I only see 6, very weird. So I took my other 3 for April and got Antique Shop Book of Soul, The Emerald Maiden one and Haunted Train Spirit of Charon.

Someone just gave me a PCC so now I have an empty card and 3 PCCs. They don't expire until May. I could use them today along with another GCC and have another card filled. I also have a Coupon for a CE good til end of year. I had my eye on the CE of Dead Reckoning but who knows, something better will probably come along, there's a lot of year left.

This was their response when Tirama pointed this out to BFG in the forum for today's TGT ...

Yes, Bonus Punch Monday is a recurring weekly promotion.Thanks for pointing this out, TiramaSue!
I've reached out to the folks who are in charge of this popular questions pop-up feature, and it's been updated to address the recent changes.
Thanks again!

Of course they give us a BPM the week after they cancelled it!
I never expected them to have a BPM the first Monday after having cancelled it and asked them, when I sent them a message, if they were playing with us. Had I thought it possible, I would have waited to get the CEs I got this weekend to take advantage of the extra punches as the codes still work today!
However, as it's only for this Monday (as far as we know), I'm going to see how many SEs I want to get to use my PCCs for this month, as well as if there's another CE I want to get to use the CSCC I have that expires in a little over a week. Who knows when the next BP day will be?
They sure are making it hard to work out punch cards and when to use what.

Oscar, I also lost a PCC for April. I have one written down for the 24th and it's been checked against my bought list, where I check if I've received the correct number of PCCs, as well as check that I've written down all the games I've bought and all the PCCs I have and their dates (if they all agree then I haven't missed anything). But I can't find the email with the code! It's not in the PCCs folder, nor in the used PCCs folder, so I don't know where it is.
Hopefully they'll get back to me before midnight to let me know what the code is, or whether I've already used it ... but how, I'd like to know, as I always use them in order.

stusue - since we know those codes will work a day aftr the sale is officially over, it wouldn't hurt to wait until Mondays to see what happens.
I need to decide what I'm going to do. This could be the only bonus punch day this month.
I think BF should send me a paycheck. I put in a lot of time troubleshooting their free-to-play games, pointing out website errors, etc. I'd love to know what the people on their payroll are doing.
