Grrr! BRU VENT!

in 3rd Trimester

Are you KIDDING me?

So when I was within two weeks of my due date, I went into BRU and picked up my completion coupon since it hadn't arrived at my home yet and I was antsy to get my shopping done. I was then told the coupon I would later receive in the mail would be void -- totally fine.

So I get my 10% off coupon in the store, do my shopping, spend $600, and go home happy.

That is, until I get my mailed-in coupon today, and the sucker is for 15% off!!!! 

So I only get 10% because I didn't wait on their slow_asses to send me the god-damned coupon? I know it's only, like, a $35 difference or something (don't check my math, I was an English major), but ooooh. OOOOH! Grrrrr.... I'm am fuming. Mama bear style.

Someone is getting a nasty phone call, I tell you what.

Vent over, thanks.

    Oh I always thought it was 10% good to know! I bet if you bring it up there they will adjust for you!

    Are you sure the 15% was your completion coupon and not just a reg. coupon they send out.  we get 15% coupons all the time just in our reg. mail.  A friend of mine had told me it's not even worth it to use their completion code that I'm better off just using the 15% one when it comes in the mail.

    That sucks balls. You could have had a pedicure with that money!

    How does the BRU completion coupon work? Do they just automatically mail it close-ish to your due date?

    I bet it will still work - I'd use it for anything else you need in the future!

    It was definitely the completion coupon. I'm calling later today. Jerks.
