Goofy coupons and clearance sales= dumb & dumber
I find it frustrating, funny, yet expected that Shop LC pushes a EXTRA20 coupon when the EXTRA25 coupon on the item I was interested in works. This happens all the time. Never take their word for it that the current coupon they offer is the best discount! It rarely is. If it’s a really expensive item that extra 5% can be substantial. Doesn’t matter with no returns, not interested. When is this clearance over I’m so tired of them. Way too many clearance sales!

Whoa! You actually GOT a coupon to WORK??! I have ONLY ever gotten a coupon to work ONCE. Everytime it 'doesn't qualify".
or worse, you add the code in to what you THINK you are going to buy, it doesn't work, but then it also says you've already used the code when you try to swap out items
(my situation months ago).
From now on, if I want a killer deal, I go to auctions . . . although lately people are either HEAVY casino stalkers or smoking crack because they are bidding items up to 2X what they NORMALLY sell for . . . . ugh . . .
Since items are usuaully cycled over and over within a week, chances are VERY good that exact item will show up in 24 hrs to be bid on. Although I KICKED myself for not bidding on a ring that sold for $43 (normally sells for $350) . . . now everything similar is selling for $400 (sigh). I just gotta be patient I guess, or decide it's not worth my time
I really cannot complain though, a ring I had seen on TV MONTHS ago for $200 and ALMOST BOUGHT, hit the auctions in my size, (I had searched months ago to see if it was on auction yet). I snagged it for $53!!!
Auctions are MOUCH more stressful, more work and require more patience, but I find them to be much better than the coupons
