Uh oh, this one's going to go apeshit!!!
Let's begin with the parade of items that are barely $20, the horror stories of those managers that wouldn't take the coupon, and all the internet lawyers that will sue as a result!
Yep, I've been here a while.
EDIT: for store associates? Ah hell, this won't fly. You're supposed to be an employee of CC.

Nope. Just tell them you want to use the coupon.

I'm thinking the bar code/coupon code is only good for 1 purchase and will read an error to anyone else who tries...but i could be retarded.
...If not, CC will soon realize that everyone is using the same code nationwide and discontinue the code. If you do use the code, I wouldn't sign my name on anything or give them my address, b/c they could go back and charge you full price since you're using the code under false pretense.

There have been multiple accoutns of people using this coupon over on IGN. Yu do not even need to bring in the coupon, just the code.

From IGN:
Ok here is my story (Big Thanks to Tweak)
I made a couple of print-outs of the coupon and cut them out.
Went to one CC that had RE4 in stock, gave him the coupon, got the $20 discount. dancing
Got greedy and asked if I could use it again on another game and he said ok lets try BUT it came up invalid the second time. So I left.
Went to another CC got Sim City DS, gave the girl the same coupon and it worked again! dancing
Asked her if we could try another time on one more game, and she tried but once again it didn't work a second time.
So bottom line is the code on the coupon we have is all the same (meant for one customer) and can probably only be used once per CC store. After that the next person (trying to use the same exact code) is %^&* out of luck. happy

People are just takign in the number and telling the associate there they want to use the discount. The associate inputs the number and it works. And no where in the coupon does it say Employees only.

Even if the coupon doesn't say employees only, that doesn't make it right to use it. It's not for the public. With that said, I know a lot of people are gonna use this anyway

How's it an employee coupon? And it shouldn't even matter. Did the one per household limit on the Fox DVDs coupon stop people from buying 20+ sets?
Well, I'm goin later tonight to use it on a 4000 pt card.

Did you even read what the thing said, or are you just retarded? Notice the words, "Store Associates."
...and I know people are still gonna use it, that's what I just said. But does it make it right? No. Plus, I guarantee you this code will not work within the next 24 hrs...so anybody who does want to use it better act fast. And if they do, I suggest you give them a false phone number and info so they cant track you down.

On the email it says for employees...didn't read that. But on the actual coupon it doesn't say anything about it. And I do wish I was retarded. They get to do some kickass stuff.

So where's the YMMV in the title? Abusi... *ahem* ...I mean "taking advantage of" a coupon like this (which was not meant for the general public) would at least merit the status of YMMV.
At any rate, thumbs up for the OP's thoughtfulness. I guess he was just trying to share his coupon. *shrugs*
I'm not going to try it though.

Recently quit from Circuit City. Some coupons work over and over, especially the gift card ones. But this one, once redeemed, it should be done.
My best bet would be to look for the associate who's cool and laid back. If he's nice enough and the coupon doesn't work the manager will adjust the price for you. I've done it for some customers, depends how nice they are haha. Anyway, one sure bet would be to ACCEPT THE PROTECTION PLAN! It's only $2 for a game and if the manager sees that you accepted that, why would he hurt his Circuit City Advantage Numbers(CCA)??? If I see someone is purchasing CA, price adjustment NO PROBLEM haha~! Maybe anyway, it's only $2. However if you were buying a TV :)
Good luck guys! And if they ask about your employment just say you're store #3315, and if they ask about your DPS # say you don't because you're new. Hell, I'd fall for it ;)

Just came back from CC. Bought the Nyko Charge Station for Wii remotes for $9.99
I made sure to get checked out by the manager who was at a register. He said "A bunch of these have been showing up lately. Where did you get this?"
I made up some intricate story so then he said "Well some of them scan, others don't. If the system accepts it I'll use it." It worked. He even told me I should keep it for the future.
Rep for OP and people who uploaded scans.

Might, just would have to talk to the person at the register. I just want to get discounts on games I normally wouldn't buy due to their price. I don't want to go out and try to get free stuff because maybe if I still spend some $ I can use it twice. Just have to sweet talk them.

the lady i dealt with tried the code on a 2nd game to see if it would honor the discount again. it came up with a error like it didn't want to take. but on her screen it gave the $20 discount which came to -$40.00. she was going to do it but she had to call to get verification so she wouldnt get in trouble, but they didnt let her. but i got more CC's around.

Then I am going to use my entertainment book 10% rebate thing the have off any purchase and I should get $7.50 back from that. (I don't buy from CC much). So I should get 4 games for $80 all said and done, reg $130.

No, he manually entered it one time. The other times they didn't even bother trying to scan.

Worked like a charm for me. Got Dead rising for $20! I used the scan with the pictures of games on the second thread of this page. I got worried when the women at CC had trouble scanning it. But then a guy came over and explained they have to scan the coupon first, then the game otherwise it won't work. Thanks again for starting this post. Going to another CC tommorrow to get some Xbox points.

Heard you can't use fillers on this deal, can't use multiple items period.
But if it did work, I'd recommend buying a soda or water bottle that most CCs sell.

06-25-2007, 10:43 PM
so what ur saying is that if an item that is 19.99 and i need it to be 20 dollars or more i cant put in an item to reach that 20 dollar mark?
i rememmber seeing some computer games for like .99 cents...hopefully we could use 2 items and ill just throw one of those in...or just buy anything and return it later on

That what showing it was already redeemed. But when they clear the box the discount still shows. Cashier showed me that when I was trying to get 2 games. But the manager only let me get 1 with 1 coupon.

Just used it at my local Circuit City to pick-up XBox 360Tiger Woods PGA Tour 07 for $29.99 ($49.99 - $20.00 Coupon). The cashier input the code below the bar code and it was denied. She asked if I had already used this coupon and I told her that I had not. She swiped her badge and adjusted the XBox 360 game price down by $20.00 and noted in the comment section "$20.00 coupon".
I resized (downsized) the JPEG image of the coupon prior to printing and then tore off the top half of the print-out. I left the last paragraph that begins with, "To show our appreciation . . ." I didn't want to just cut out the coupon in case I was questioned on it. I wanted to be able to refer the the last sentence in that last paragraph: "Print this email and take it to your local Circuit City store to redeem your coupon".
Thanks OP - Repped!
Here's the resized coupon in case anyone wants to try it:
42919
With the coupon this size, they can't deny it because they can't read the terms. :rofl2:

The girl who rang mine up was not the manager. I almost had her let me use the same coupon twice for 2 games. She tried it the 2nd time and the box came up and said denied because it had been used. But she clicked out the box and it showed the -$40 so she almost did it but had to call to get permission so she wouldn't get in trouble. But she wasn't allowed.

if that is true, then your store blows. they have probably had it pulled on them multiple times and are tired of it :lol: but all they should do is just deny you, i dont see any reason for them to take legal issues. but thats just my opinion.

In case people have not figured this out yet, you can only use this coupon once per store, so if u live in the same area as someone who has already used the coupon it will say coupon has already been used. this is because all the barcodes/ numbers are the same on all the coupons. unless there are multiple coupons floating around on this board with different barcodes u are going to get denied.
This is only a theory and im interested in finding out whether anybody has had any luck using the coupon twice at the same CC, in the same day or on different days.

Oh really? it doesnt have to be employees? maybe if you saw the FULL coupon and writing which says
"Offer valid for single ticket purchases by city games associate club members only. Offer valid on regular, sale and clearance prices on select items. Minimum purchase $20. Offer valid 4/15/07 – 12/31/07 in conjunction with associate discount."

Further down the first page there are some more links that should work.

awesome! I could tell that when I gave the the guy the coupon it didn't work at first, but he manually gave the deduction...
wound up with resistance fall of man for 43.43 :)
ive gone twice..the first time the manager said "if its already been redeemed we cant do anything about it"
the second time i went i used the pdf and the guy said, "this doesn't have anything about circuit city on it, its probably for another store."...i think im done

I received a PM that the coupon image in my previous post (http://forums.slickdeals.net/showpost.php?p=7030924&postcount=127) is not able to be saved or printed.
Let's try it another way - here's a link to the file:
http://www.geocities.com/jtmeyers2001/circuit_city_20_game_coupon
Let me know if this works (i.e. you are able to save it and / or print it)
Still works... went tonight and picked up Rainbow 6 Vegas for 360 for only 19.99. Woohoo!!! It and GRAW2 are on sale for 39.99. Gonna try for it tomorrow with doubtful results I'm sure, but why not.

I was denied yesterday trying to buy a Wiimote. The coupon didn't scan, she entered it manually and it had already been redeemed. No luck at that store.
Got Sonic for the Wii for 19 bucks. Thanks OP!

Did you even read what the thing said, or are you just retarded? Notice the words, "Store Associates."
Am I the only one that gets the fact that "Store Associate" means "Hey, you in the red shirt - here's the section where we tell you how to process the coupon" and not "you must work for Circuit City to redeem this?"

One of the coupons says that, the other doesn't. Use the one that doesn't -- ethical problem solved.

if you read in the description at the beginning (not the description inside the red dashed box) it implies the coupon is for store associates.

I had asked a couple BB employees and they said that they didn't match coupons. But I went to customer service and he said that he could. So when I checked out, the cashier said he would need manager approval, and the customer service rep came over and just adjusted the price for a price match. $29.99 for the Biggs on Wii. Best Buy seemed to have a much better selection then Circuit City.

Alright. So I (finally) used all that graphic design practice for the power of good. I reworked the original coupon, and hopefully eliminated that whole "not scanning" problem. It took a while, so I'd like to be credited if this thing gets spread around.

I just got back from circuitcity here in Concord, CA. I was told it has already been redeemed.
Does that mean someone else already used the code at that store before and thats why it wont work or can this be used over and over if so why did it not?

This deal is YMMV. I used one on the Nyko charger and got it for 10 bucks. Same things happened . . . I gave the guy the coupon, it wouldnt' scan . . . he typed it in, and it said already redeemed. I told him that is impossible and that I just received this coupon via email, and I told him to call the manager. Manager looked at it, never saw the coupon but realized it was a Circuit City coupon (didn't show expired), and just overrided it. Sometimes it takes a little work to get these deals, u gotta be "slick" with it.
Now I definitely wont be trying this at the same Circuit City, but I have like 5 within a 20 mile radius . . . and I'm always on the go, I'm keeping a few in the car, so if I'm in the area, I will swing by and give it another chance elsewhere.
These don't expire until next year I believe, so I'm gonna wait until I really want something before I try again.

I agree with the above poster. It would really help you guys out if people would read the thread and then go for the deal (or at least skim it). The whole "redeemed" thing has been talked about in-depth.
I've used the coupon three times already and have gotten my item less $20 every time. (The first time it wouldn't scan, so they typed it in manually. I didn't hear that it had a "redeemed" problem...)

Woo, I'm gonna rep you just for injecting some common sense. When I went, the flunkie at the register (predictably) had no clue what to do with the coupon. I walked over to customer service, they called a manager, and he did it no problem - even apologized for the wait.
They're not just going to hand you cheap games, people...a little industriousness will sometimes be necessary. Not willing to talk to a manager? No cheap game for you :shake:

That's basically the gist of it. Some people find it more worthwhile to work an extra hour on the job or so rather than deal with (sometimes) cranky managers and other frustrating customer service people.

I used it twice at the same circuit city, two different days, two different cashiers. First time I got a Microsoft Comfort Optical Mouse 3000 and the second time I got Dawn of War: Dark Crusade for $9.99...both times the coupon showed as redeemed and I told them I'd just received it, my nephew had signed us up for "City Games". I had no problem with getting an override.
