Here, Kobo have deliberately given out a 90% off coupon code. Whether they intended it to be multiple use or not I have no idea. That's really up to them. But it is not clearly an error as it is a genuine coupon code, not something hacking an error in the web site input sanitising.
I am 99.9% sure that Kobo knows exactly what is happening with this coupon and the "vacationing" people are doing with it. It suits their purposes, at the moment, to let that happen. At some point, it may not.

Yep, it's so obvious that Kobo must be either initiating it or condoning it.

I know for a fact Kobo read these threads, because I have been contacted by them in regards to something I posted here, so I am 100% certain they were very much aware of the code being used multiple times and could have fixed it much sooner, had they wanted to.

I just finished totalling what my haul would have cost without the coupon. My head is spinning!

Only one book came without a download link, but managed to get it from the desktop app.

I think the coupons are probably sneaky attempts to get us to try new books that we might then become addicted to. I grabbed at least 3 authors that are new to me, that I probably wouldn't have without the big discount, and at least one of those authors has a huge backlist that I will then have to obtain if the sale books are as good as they look. Sneaky, sneaky Kobo encouraging addiction with coupons.

Chanda India is an excellent site for ebooks - so good in fact that it must have been very crowded there this weekend with all the extra tourists travelling there.

You're about 15 hours behind schedule!

Anyone else having trouble getting to their library to download a purchase. Every time I try I get logged out. I log back in, try to get to my library, and ...

Over and over.

Is it just me?

If you pop back a few pages in this thread you'll see how everyone is talking about their buying experiences, the number of books they bought and the number of Kobo Receipts that they've received.

In that case, thank you Kobo! And I'm sorry for what I said about your customer service.
