They give you 3 QR code and make you redeem $20 per visit. Expires 10/31. What a scam!

This needs to be clearly called out in the post. Very misleading post by OP

I think this is a good deal. $36 for $60 to spend DB chips. You will need to ask the worker to redeem the codes 3 times and add it to your power card since it's a bundle of 3 $20 gameplay credits. You should be able to redeem in the same day (I got it through T-Mobile deal and redeemed 2 codes on same visits, the Manager was not happy and gave an attitude). At the end, the $60 game play credits will equal or close to $300 chips (varies by location). So you are getting $0.12 per chip ($36 divide by 300). For example, the highest recharge bundle at my DB is $115 for 780 chips which equals to $0.147, higher than this deal. Even with buying $100 gift card from Costco for $80. My cost will still be $0.12 per chip. Not the greatest deal, but a good one, as long as you are able to redeem multiple codes in the same day at your location.

I'm taking three boys to D&B for my son's birthday. This seems like a good deal to get all three $40 in gameplay ($120 value) for $72 total.

Can anyone with more D&B experience than I advise if this is a good deal for that purpose? Can I get $40 in play per card in a more efficient way?

Will this work at Main Event since they are owned by D&B?

Can this be used on half price Wednesdays? I had issues redeeming those $20 cards for $12 deals on Wednesdays.

EDIT : Not valid with any other offers, including Half Price Games Wednesdays or any Half Price Game promotion.
How can they tell if you add it to a gamecard?

Why wouldn't it work? D&B just lowers the cost of each game on Wednesdays doesn't it?
you have to go on any other day to load from the barcode to a D and B card. It can then be used on a Wednesday

They won't let you load it on your game card on Wednesdays. But you can load it on a different day and use it on Wednesday. Just can't redeem the coupon on Wednesdays.

Can anyone confirm what part of this deal is "promotional?" It says the "Promotional Arcade Card value," expires 10/31/2024. Does that just mean I need to load it on a PowerCard by that date and the chips will never expire? Or, are the chips they load considered "Promotional Chips" like bonus chips or chips earned from food and beverage purchases (which apparently do expire??)?

Sorry for the newbie questions. I've never been to Dave & Buster's. They just opened a brand-new store near me.

I'm regretting my purchase of $60. It seems like it might be a pain in the butt to redeem:

So I received 3 x $20 cards that need to be scanned (can't be added to the app). If you can only do one a day that means I need to go 3 times before 10/31?! That's not going to happen.
Only one offer per guest, per day. Not individual codes/credits. You'll notice in the terms at the bottom they state the total amount you bought ($60), and the top of the sheet they label the entire page an "offer" (like how they call Half Price Wednesdays an "offer"). Basically, you can't buy multiple of these and come in on the same day. $60 is the max.

^^ammunition in case they challenge you on it. They don't really define what an "offer" is. Seems like folks aren't having trouble redeeming all 3 QR codes at once, though.
