Kobo $1 off--can be used 3 times

taming · 10-01-2010, 06:19 PM

119 books are listed for this offer. The code is: $1off (corrected, it sure looked like Staff to me). It expires October 3.

BTW, a Kobo staff person told me that sometimes all non-agency books are actually included for discount offers. She said that the way to tell if it is non-agency is to see if there is both a regular price and a discount price listed for the book. Agency books have only one price listed. I am not sure that it applies here.

The code I was emailed is $1off (kinda looks like Staff) did you misread?

Most of the harper Collins Agatha Christie tales are Can$5.79 ... so that puts a heck of a lot of classic mystery novels under $5 with this promotion ...

Debbie Mack's "Identity Crisis" from Smashwords (via kobobooks) is $1.49 with this promotion (fun lawyer-turned-detective debut novel) ...

Carolyn G Hart's "Death on Demand" series of cozy mysteries are all under $5 with this promotion -- by contrast, most of these titles are $10 in paper so this is a 50% off sale! ...

Blame it on very old eyes--it is $1off

I've received three separate emails from Kobo with this offer, each with a different offer code (each stating it can be used three times):

"1dollaroff"
"$1off"
"save1dollar"

Interestingly, the text of the "save1dollar" email does not refer to the discount only being applicable to books on a particular list (as the "1dollaroff" and "$1off" emails do).

I actually found the $1off code on the front page of the kobobooks.com website (Canadian version). I have not had any Emails about it sent to me.

They also have this on offer in UK £1 off per purchase. I used it three times works great.
Code: save1
