Then, go to your shopping cart and enter the coupon code into the box labeled “Enter any special offer/coupon code here”. Next, hit Apply Coupon. You should see then see the discount of $9.99. To purchase it, click Checkout Now and follow the steps. Please let us know if you have any further questions." Apparently, it needs to be a different account from the one that sent the coupon.

Make sure you didn't accidentally have a space pasted at the front or end of the coupon code. Also, if you happened to send more than one on the same day, that you scroll down in gmail (or other ) and get the last code sent. The others will have all been used and invalid.
p.s. Just tested on all three of the current bundles and still works like it always did, using micropay during checkout. Paypal always used to not give you the chance to send a coupon, so I never test it anymore, just in case.
