Ach, don't say I missed out again!?!

I ordered Alias Season 5 R1 for £15.49 or something like that. Not a bad price.

Just got sent a £5 voucher for Sendit as well (some promo they did with lovefilm.com, where I signed up for them - can't remember exact details)!!! SO just bought Red Dwarf S6 for £5.89. Been a good day!!!

Markgway · Post by **Markgway** » 04 Dec 2006, 20:25

Huh? I thought you couldn't get it to work?

bradavon · Post by **bradavon** » 04 Dec 2006, 20:33

Well Slasher implies he got one but who knows. It looks like Degeneration did too as Alias Season 5 R1 £20.49 before vouchers.

Weird I can't get it to work any more either.

I presume this is some rental tie in?

I got it to work for me BEFORE I tried it for my girlf...

I actually got it to work twice (different email addresses) for me before i tried it for my girlf, but cause I had to go and change several addresses on the cdwow site, somehow it wiped my cart AFTER I'd applied the voucher and as a result it still registered my use of teh voucher, even though I didn't get to actually use it!!

Anyway, at least I got it working once...

I hate it when that happens.

I guess like lots of the CD WOW vouchers it can be a bit funny. I'm going to try from work.

Just wait until the site does a "refresh". The same thing happened to me last night. I tried again with the same code this morning and it worked fine. I ordered Miami Vice: Director's Cut (R1).

Interesting thanks. I wish I'd known sooner, my brother threw a few £2 World Cup codes away.

Exactly what I did.

My cart got wiped too. 8 hours later, I was able to use the voucher.

Huh? All I get is something that says I am getting £1 off. Nothing about £5 there.

thelostdragon · Post by **thelostdragon** » 05 Dec 2006, 00:47

After entering the code it says:
Sorry, the promotion code you have entered is not correct. Please check and try again.

Markgway · Post by **Markgway** » 05 Dec 2006, 00:50

Looks like it's just me and LD who can't get it to work... and I tried numerous times.

I give up... I really do.

As Romero says ignore that it's actually £5 or it would be if it was working for you

I've sent the details to my brother whose also having the same problems weird

. They normally work for everyone.

All I can suggest is trying again in the morning. It could be because the voucher "special" link is busy (i.e - popular). I wouldn't take what it actually says as being the actual reason.

bradavon · Post by **bradavon** » 05 Dec 2006, 02:55

Remember assuming you can get it to work in the first place you can use this more than once if you have multiple accounts.

Just like the previous and current £2 Voucher Code.

romerojpg · Post by **romerojpg** » 06 Dec 2006, 17:57

I also used the £1 link so I got 6 quid off, title was shipped yesterday

got Hostel UK dvd for £1.99

grim_tales · Post by **grim_tales** » 06 Dec 2006, 18:07

£1.99? How so?

bradavon · Post by **bradavon** » 06 Dec 2006, 19:04

All voucher codes can be combined with voucher links, no matter how large or small.

Personally however with these large vouchers £5/8 and the like I think it's too risky in case they decide to make you the exception to the (unofficial) rule and cancel your order (lets not forget for about 3-6 months they did just that).

In theory there is nothing stopping you getting another £5 voucher though. I say in theory as I've not managed to get it working since. You'd be more pissed if you lost that £5 (than happy over the £1 saving) just because you were extra greedy and wanted another £1 off.

It is mad thinking about it they'd sell a £7.99 DVD for £1.99. From a business perspective they may as well give it away.

Still it does bode well for £3 (Code + Link) for future.

Because it's £7.99 and he got £6 off (£1 Link + £5 Code), what's confusing?

Because I got 6 quid off haha

just ordered the R2 of Dead Mans Chest for £8:99 (£1 link + £5 voucher)

romerojpg · Post by **romerojpg** » 06 Dec 2006, 21:10

Crikey I didnt know it was so expensive to start with! Region 2 is a rip off sometimes. Still the Region 3 evrsions are cheap, but are ussually not as nice as Region 2 in many ways (well to me). Thats why I ussually wait for sale for UK dvds

Shen · Post by **Shen** » 06 Dec 2006, 21:11

yup its cheap on CDwow by most standards, instore in HMV its £16 nearly, my dvd player does play R3's but i gotta enter a code first and shit. so seeing as its under a tenner the R2 will be ok. but i wouldnt pay more than £9 for it...even loathed for that but i want it so...

bradavon · Post by **bradavon** » 06 Dec 2006, 21:24

The R3s from big studios are identical to the Western DVDs???

tom2681 · Post by **tom2681** » 06 Dec 2006, 21:30

@Shen:
Just buy a cheap region-free player.
They don't cost much more than £40 these days.

Shen · Post by **Shen** » 06 Dec 2006, 21:36

well my dvd player plays all regions but R3...i cant afford to buy a new dvd player just yet. it was only one of these cheap players that comes with 50 free (but crap) dvds but its not bad as it plays all regions but R3 but even then i can enter a code to make it play them... but the R2 is just easier lol
