You may be able to get the new checkout by kind of hacking your payment information before you try to buy anything. That is, go to your account and change your location to someplace that has the new checkout. Then, use the site as usual to find the books you're after, and open each up in a new tab. Once you've got your tabs set up, you should be able to go to each in turn and edit your payment info to fix your country/province/etc., save that info, enter the promo code, and - assuming it works on that book in that country - complete the checkout. Since the other tabs are already in the new checkout, you do exactly the same for each of those. When you're done, a new purchase attempt should get you back to the status quo, which for you is the old checkout.

At least, that's what I've heard might work. A buddy of mine in the Marshall Islands swears by it. He reports that you might have to worry about geo restrictions in the dummy country, though; the same book may have a different publisher/ISBN there and thus might not be available when you switch to your actual country for checkout.
