NP, Sunshine  And don't worry, I'll let you know as soon as GameHouse has one of their 50% discount sales where all the games are automatically 50% off so that you can use your 75% discount coupon.
 

Thanks stusue...I don't go to Gamehouse everyday, so I forget to look.  I already have my game all picked out.  Origins  platinum edition.

Thanks for adding to the  review stusue.  I think BBTs must be a widescreen thing.  I don't have any black bars in my games.

Black Bar Tips (BBT's) are those written messages such as "Hmm.  I think I need to open this." that appear when you zoom into an interactive area.  Sometimes they can be too helpful as in "Hmm.  I need a key to open this.  There's one on the table in the bedroom."

Re: Finish your games challenge - 2014

I rec'd a response to my email about the 60% off coupon for dling AK.  I was told perhaps it went to spam, it didn't.  And here in the meantime is a coupon to reduce the cost of a CE to $11.99.  Huh, no I don't think so that's not what was on offer.  That is approx $2.25 off the member price, 40% off retail.  I told him no, I would like the 60% off coupon please.

I've found the Customer Service to be really up and down this year.  A lot of times I'll get a stupid reply pretty much just saying "Sorry about that, but it's just too bad", then I just write back again and tell them I'm not very happy with their response and then they give me a good deal, so you'll probably get a much better response this time.
When I got into bed in my van last night I was so happy to be there.  I told my bunk that I missed it and I knew it had missed me.  I always wanted to live in a van, but I had always envisioned the Chevy Van sort of thing, but this is close enough, and strange as it seems it makes me happy and I feel so at peace, I feel like I have so much less to worry about... well, as long as the van doesn't die, it's 21 years old
I bought the Legacy Witch Island game over the weekend and then yesterday realized that the Garden Inc PE on sale was #2 (I already have #1 as SE) so I bought it for $3.50 and that gives me another 75% off coupon.


No matter how much I complain, I'm grateful for all I have.

I'm still waiting to hear back.  Yesterday I wrote to the same guy who gave my the brilliant deal last time but he's off today and tomorrow (he's there Sunday-Thursday) so I hope it doesn't get passed on to someone else when he's not there.  I have no problem waiting until next week as he's been the most accommodating when it comes to this problem.  The first reply I got was just to wait as he hadn't heard that there was a problem. 

But $11.99?    That's ridiculous!  I know from experience that not all CS reps have access to the same coupons.  But it would have been better to have been sent one of their normal CS coupons for a free SE, which I think they all have access to and which was the first one I was sent, than the stupid coupon that you got!

I can just picture you telling your bunk how much you'd missed it.  It's something I'd do.    I'm really glad you feel so at peace there, in your own little home.  I think you really need - and deserve - some peace.    Fingers crossed your van doesn't die! 

WTG getting another 75% off coupon!  I've got all the PEs that are on sale, including Garden Inc, but Legacy - Witch Island got me one punch closer to a freebie.  Only one to go now.    I wonder what they'll have on sale next week...

Re: Finish your games challenge - 2014

oscar -- Hope you get the CS thing sorted out.  The last time I wrote to CS I got a C & P "response" that didn't even address my reason for writing! And a coupon (I think for a CE).  I used the coupon and wrote AGAIN to the same person saying you didn't address my problem (I was looking for the WT for a game.  It wasn't listed in the BFG WTs but if you clicked WT from the game page or the Game Forum page you got there.)  I got a reply from a different person who thanked me for pointing this out and said she'd pass it along to the people who could fix it.  And I got a CS coupon for a regular game.

Wendy -- I'm glad the van is working out for you.  And I'm very glad that you feel at peace there.  As stusue said, fingers crossed that the van keeps soldiering on!

Re: Finish your games challenge - 2014

It's a 40% off code this week at Gamehouse but you can't use the %off coupon with it.  I'm patiently waiting for the kind of sale you can use both, I'm planning on getting the PE of Witches Pranks I think.


No matter how much I complain, I'm grateful for all I have.

Re: Finish your games challenge - 2014

Thanks for your response. I'm glad to hear from you again. Also, thanks for describing the the sale discount a little more. I apologize that I didn't provide the correct discount coupon. I'll be happy to straighten this out for you right now

That's the response I got above, I had to laugh as I don't know how many ways you can say 60% off and why he didn't understand the first time (sure).  Stusue I was hoping to get the same guy as well and I replied to him, but someone else answered.  He did give me a freebie coupon.  More than what I wanted but considering we have to chase these coupons down...and they must check out accounts because in all the stuff I send filling out the form and my email address I am Sue, they always call me Susan in response which is on my account and credit card.  So I assume they know I downloaded it and when.
