Best Buy Coupon: $50 off $100+ In-Store Purchases via Printable Coupon (MasterCard Required)

Quote from namlook : It's because it just doesn't make sense. They are going to lose a lot of money on this promotion if they honor it through 1/27 as the coupon states.

Best Buy's financial situation must be more dire than ever for them to pull a stunt like this. Stock should drop on this news.

Quote from h_pagoda : Confused why some are questioning the validity of it. If anything a BB insider has gone rogue and created a monster. But it's really on bestbuy.com, people.

where im not seeing it?

Quote from dragonkid : I do believe it is authentic as Best Buy is trying very hard to make their turnaround. Consider the $5 trade-in last 2 weeks, and Facebook RZ points now. However, I doubt that the system will apply the discount on gift cards.

Yeah but this coupon is not the way to do it, at least not if people take advantage of it even if they don't do the gift card route. It doesn't exclude some items that barely make BB any money such as computer monitors. After this coupon they'll be losing money on every monitor that walks out of the door -_-

I'm not sure if you knew about the promotion buy $50 gc get $10 gc on Bestbuy.com last month?
They pulled it off the website very early.

Because if you read the coupon, you could legitimately walk in the store with a ream of them printed out, go to the gift cards section and grab all of them and then go to the cashier and pay in 100 dollar increments getting $50 off each. Then go get a bunch of $100 GPSs at half off, etc. If it is real, then someone forgot to add, "1 per customer" and "gift cards excluded"...Then it would be your typical $50 off nothing you likely want or stuff that is already way overpriced deal which is Worst Buy in a nutshell.

The store near me only has a couple of monitors, but at high price. It's all about the corporate trying to increase the revenue and traffic to make it look good on reports.

This bolded part is absolute nonsense. Even if BB doesn't have good prices, 50% off their prices is SUPER SLICK for the majority of their items, if not all.

Don't be ridiculous. Also, you've posted this more than once, and its stupid.

I hate best buy, but Canon isn't excluded, monitors aren't excluded, a number of pro audio brands aren't excluded, etc. Even at 1 per person this would be the best deal of January without a doubt on SD.

damn and I thought my Best Buy's selection in Mississippi was limited lol. My stores carry a few sub $100 monitors - going to try to pick one or more up depending on east coast's luck.

i don't think losing significant money will look good on reports but here's hoping this deal pans out!

Sounds sweet. I'm not convinced with the barcode though. I'd love to be wrong though

Would excluding portable electronics include a tablet?

Can I use this coupon multiple or Is there limit per account?

TIA.
