My coupon code comes from http://www.cpcoupon.com and when I tried going to the website I get a blank page. Does anyone have the same problem? That might be why some of our coupon feeds are blank. |

Dive, I have one cardinal rule about using others pages. Don't.  Bad enuff when your page goes down for some reason but you double the chances of a problem when depending on others to stay up. While cpcoupon is a good source, I make a "coupon" graphic about the size and color I need and add it to a separate folder on my website. That way it fits the feel of the page and I can change it whenever a new coupon comes up. And I can link to the same pic on various page. Right now I have 6 different coupon graphics with various looks, sizes and feels. (for CP, Zaz, PF, etc) That is, if I have a red page I make a red one, green page... green, etc. Some just a square, some banner size, etc. I change those 6, upload them and I've updated 80 different pages and... they're all links and they all compliment the look of the page. More work? Sure. But less lookin' like an idiot to your users. And if there is no current coupon, just comment it out rather than have something outdated on your page.  |

Gary, I do have my own coupon graphic. I was just using the script for the coupon code. When there is no code (as now) I just have a blank within my own graphic. |

Kewl, Dive.  But CP is tough with coups anymore outside of their "spend a million get a nickel off". http://shop.cafepress.ca/coupon-codeTry here for some (which is rare) but zaz is almost always there with something. (click on zaz on the right) http://evreward.com/store/go/3025-cafepress-com##But I generally have more than one code to a graphic if there's more than one available. If there is nothing available my main pages are laid out so I can just comment it out without destroying the layout. But having just a plain graphic is a good idea too. Especially if you need a place holder. Just that with a pile of sites gotta figger out what would be generic enuff to work with all of them. |

Geez, I was just going to post that my Speakupdesigns code was no longer working. I guess they might just have a new one. Better check it out.

Well I'm not too keen on "expires soon". Especially since the $100 one is outdated. Even tho it has been updated to 11/30. Nothing worse than having a coup that doesn't work. Which makes me worry about all of them! On the other hand, I'm using... Free shipping on orders $40 or more Code SHIP4FREE Exp. 10/23 |

^ I used the SHIP4FREE one last night to order a few test calendars. The free coupon they gave me for that was...
Save $5 on $50
Coupon: WAFFLEMARGIN
Expires October , 2009
Yes the email they sent me with the code shows "October , 2009" for the day it expires...

Mebbe we can take up a collection and hire a proofreader and donate it to them.  |

Hello All!
The reason I used expires soon is because I found the code but it obviously had an incorrect expiry date. Which is what I added to the coupon Bolt posted since Cp didn't know when it expired.
The $100 coupon is still functioning but I have issues where it will not do anything until I enter the code a second time. Because of this I have added it to the published feeds. Only on my site.
Coupon codes are getting harder to find because I have found one or two that were specifically only for the marketplace.

Oh I hear ya, Speak! If they're going to split MP/shop sale coups then it's prolly time to just dump them alltogether if we don't know which is what. Like I say, better no coup than one that doesn't work. That's what worries me about all this. Seems their marketing agents are working with alzheimers. Nothing makes sense anymore. The more confusing they get, the more reason to move away from them and push other pods. As far as me, out of about 200 sales I might get a couple dozen that hit the "coupon vialble" stage, but out of those 2 dozen.... no idea how many actually used it. So they can be a draw but if they don't find that item that puts them over the eligible stage they stay under it but still buy. On the other hand, a coup that's $75 or $100... probably a reason not to even bother looking. But good for a laugh. |

Yea the $5 of $40 SRV12x0 ones are now MP only... :( Those were the easiest to keep track of without official word from CP. They expired every week and you only needed to change 1 number most times to get the new one. |

He posted on CPs Forums. There was a bug with CPCoupon.com that was causing errors to the rest of his sites, so he yanked CPCoupon.com down until it was fixed. CPCoupon.com is back up and running now. |

Does CP know we are in the 4th quarter? I was looking for a coupon for somewhere else at this site when I thought "I'll see what CP are offering to the general shopulace" When offered a selection of CP places I clicked on the main CP site http://www.retailmenot.com/view/cafepress.com  |

That's not a bug -- it just means that Adam hasn't updated it lately (either because he's not aware of any new codes or he's just busy).

Over a week ago I sent both CPCoupon.com and SpeakUpDesigns are the SRV1260 code that expired on the 12th and gave them notice that the next one will be SRV1270, SRV1280, etc and that they usually last a week. SpeakUpdesigns.com added it to their feed right away and even sent me a thank you email back. CpCoupon.com never responded or added the coupon to their feed.

With the MP/shop separation I always wonder what will work and what won't. So the SVR's make me wonder. I'd rather have no coupon than one that won't work. So I've pretty much been staying away from their coups. Maybe one day they'll get it together again.  |

The SRV1260 and SRV1270 both work in my shops though. I did let Speakupdesigns.com know that they'll probably have to keep testing each new one to make sure it works in the shops. |

Anyone know if Speakupdesigns will be updating their coupon code? It's been the Nov 12 expiration for a while and I don't know whether to delete the script entirely or wait and see.

I swear they had updated it last week to the SVR1270 one.... maybe it doesn't work for Shop Sales anymore. I did just send them one last night. It was like ALDERSQUAT or something. One of the $5 off $50 purchases. |
