I finally changed my mind and went to buy the Hunger Games books. I successfully used HungerGamesDeal to get 80% off the first book. Then, when I tried to use any of the other HungerGamesDeal codes (2 through 5) I would get the message "This promotion is not active" which is different than the usual "Invalid promo code. Please verify and re-enter." I'm guessing they'll only allow 85% off of a single purchase from that set of codes and then nullify the rest.

One interesting thing I found: I tried c4auto40 which I had previously used, and was successfull for 40% off, then I tried c4auto45 and found success with 45% off (previously unknown code to me).
