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

On top of that, the person who dropped her info didn't mention what her position is (I assume he doesn't know). It's very likely that she's just some second tier support rep. Probably in a more specialized department since she has her own direct phone number. It's very unlikely that she has very much 'pull' with the company. Many companies authorize certain level employees to offer certain types, and limits, of compensation. For example, a Tier 1 person might not be able to do anything without escalation, or possibly up to $25. A Tier 2 person might be able to go up to $50-$100. Anything higher might require Tier 3 or someone in a more executive management role. It's obvious that Elizabeth has some authority to give out compensation, but those types of things are almost always tracked. If her normal hand outs are 0-10 a day, and suddenly she gets hundreds of calls/emails for them, she would be a fool to be left holding the bag and authorize them. Because when her boss sees the report, and finds that she handed out 10-100x as much as everyone else, she would be lucky to have a job the next day.

Quote from tbob66 : Agree that personal info shouldn't be given out but BBB should be notified. This was bad business practice. https://minnesota.app.bbb.org/com...bbbid=0704 They only report to higher agencies when complaints are trending.

I reported Best Buy to my State Attorney Generals office and they said they are looking into it. BBB does nothing you do know that when I ran a family company if we got a complaint all we did was write back and say that the issue between the customer and us was settled to their satisfaction whether true or not did not matter BBB then closes the case and calls it a day...LOL They have NO POWER, they are a membership organization. Back int he day they were a way for people to read reviews of companies...today they are outdated as I can read reviews on yelp, Google, and many other places sometimes right on the companies own forums.

Sure sounds like a great, "ethical" family business....

yes BBB doesn't scare anyone. If you have a legal issue and want it resolved you file with AG in your state. It's free and is your right as the resident of the state.

as long as you can prove that your legitimately received the coupon in your email.
copy of original email is fine. (that's the response I got from Best Buy corporate)

Someone spends way too much time for $50! This reminds of one of my friends who sued an uninsured motorist in small claim court after the accident. The damage was covered by his insurance but he still wanted to recoup his $250 deductible.

He won the case................and felt good about it.................................til the defendant (the uninsured motorist) moved to another state and didn't pay him a single dime.

Laugh! So much time and effort wasted, trying to recoup $250!!!!!!

Give it up people and move on!

But be prepared to laugh the day BB goes outta biz though!

Quote from ffly45 : anyone who scored amazon gc care to trade with my $25 rz certificate (exp 2/25)? need to order something from amazon, hence the offer...

So someone can use someone else's reward certificates?

Why didn't your friend file a lien?

You can go buy a $25 amazon kindle card for free with your cert. Why risk getting scammed and less for your cert?

First of all the BBB is a no buddy why should we as a business tell them anything?

If you believe in made up BS.

LOL Yep most small claims go unpaid, or say you get a Judgement of $1,000 maybe that day you get $200 bucks from the person. But then NOTHING. Your options are to file another court date and go back in to address the issue (big hassle and waste of time).

If you do small claims you should only do it to make a point. Don't expect to be paid. Plus know who your suing. I mean if the person has no money do you think your goignt o be paid, how are they going to pay you?

Quote from Newmy : Total in amazon gc was over $2,500.

Are those only good for Kindle books? If those Amazon cards worked on anything in the sight I'm kicking myself for not trying that myself. If they're just good for ebooks then this is insane.

Edit: They're planning on reselling these on ebay, right? I keep forgetting where I'm at sometimes, the den of thieves... any deal must be exploited for profit, while bitching about how corporations exploit people for profit.

This actually ended up been even sweeter deal for me...

I originally bought a PS Vita Screen Protector, Gravity Rush (PS Vita), and the Vita 16GB memory card. Total after the coupon was applied was $65.xx.

I went back today to exchange/return because I ended up getting PS+ and Gravity Rush is a free game. I exchanged the game for another and returned the 16GB memory card (got the 32GB with another use of this coupon). They ended up giving me a cash refund for the cost of the card $59.99 + tax which worked out to be $64.xx. So for about a $1 I got a PS Vita game and a screen protector.
