Groupon: Collective Buying Power

Hi, I was wondering if the groupon works if your buying books from other sellers on the Barnes and noble website. Like say a used textbook?

E-Books?

magazines?

How about items from the cafe (coffee, pastries, bagels with cream cheese?)

Why do I have to fill out the entire order form and put in my credit card information with this offer? I usually don't have to do this.

Suzanne L. answered 1 year, 1 month, 27 days, 16 hours, and 23 minutes ago

I agree with Suzanne...isn't that info already stored. ugh.

Agree with Suzanne L & Tamsen - this made the buying process frustrating.

anyone know if you can use this to buy books for a nook?

jillian N. answered 1 year, 1 month, 27 days, 16 hours, and 23 minutes ago

it says only one per customer, does that mean you only can only purchase 1? Or you just can not use more than 1 at a time, example>a 28 dollar book you can not use 2 groupon 20 $ coupons, only can use 1 at the same time?

While I do NOT work at the store, MY personal interpretation is that this works for all of their products, but they are highlighting the games, toys, and non-book items in the ad. Possibly because it's after x-mas and they need to get the excess sold. B&N or Groupon should probably VERIFY all of this though. "Groupon rep and/or B&N rep, please pick up this call!"

Rachel F. answered 1 year, 1 month, 27 days, 16 hours, and 23 minutes ago

Does this groupon work on books classified as "textbooks" on B&N's website? In my experience, most coupons don't work on books considered "textbooks" on the site. Thanks.

How long does this deal take to post on your groupon account? I bought it like 10 minutes ago and I still haven't received an email or anything and it's not under my list of purchased groupons either.

Naima H. answered 1 year, 1 month, 27 days, 16 hours, and 23 minutes ago

Can I use the Groupon as payment when I also use my members discount and a members (20 or 30% off one item) coupon? Will the website allow me to combine the discounts and use the Groupon as if it were cash?

Can I use this Groupon to buy a BN Gift Card?

Look for LivingSocial one-upsmanship next week: Citibank offers $20 cash from any ATM for $10.

Michael W. answered 1 year, 1 month, 27 days, 16 hours, and 23 minutes ago

Hi Guys - It is good for everything even sale items. This is considered a gift card. If you want full rules click on 'see full terms'. Thanks, Jayna

Jayna C. answered 1 year, 1 month, 27 days, 16 hours, and 23 minutes ago

What happens if I buy this groupon for someone else as a gift (already bought one for me) and they already bought one for themselves? Does that violate the limit of one per person? Will the other person be able to use the groupon?

Julie S. answered 1 year, 1 month, 27 days, 16 hours, and 23 minutes ago

Like other above, I would like to know why it's asking for all my information when I'm already registered in the site. The fact that I have to re-enter my credit card is making me wonder if this is even legit.

Sheila B. answered 1 year, 1 month, 27 days, 16 hours, and 23 minutes ago

does anyone know how to use this online? how do i get the coupon code for the barnes and noble purchase? although the description of the coupon says it can be used online, there is no further instruction in the email i have received, other than printing it out.

Hey, GroupOn and B&N, would you please answer our questions? Yes, I know, some of them are answered in the FAQ, but some people don't read those. Others are not.

Suzanne L. answered 1 year, 1 month, 27 days, 16 hours, and 23 minutes ago

Hi Everyone, Yes, this Groupon can be used towards e-books. Yes, this Groupon can be used towards magazines, and may be used to purchase single issues of eNewspapers and eMagazines; however, they cannot be used for subscriptions to eNewspapers or eMagazines. Sorry for the prompt asking for extra information from everyone. We are experiencing huge volume and the site has to operate slightly differently in these circumstances. Thanks for your patience! This Groupon is one per customer and one per transaction. This Groupon may take a few hours to show up in your account. Thanks again for your patience! This Groupon is valid on all items - including sale items. Once your Groupon is ready to be used, your redemption instructions will be reflected on the bottom left hand corner of your Groupon. Thanks guys, Nessa@Groupon

Can I buy a gift card using this groupon? I'm hoping it is valid on Nook!

Jagdish K. answered 1 year, 1 month, 27 days, 16 hours, and 23 minutes ago

What should I do if I bought this Groupon a full day ago and it hasn't shown up yet?

Betty S. answered 1 year, 1 month, 27 days, 16 hours, and 23 minutes ago

Hi Groupon.Can you please clarify your above response? The deal says there is a one per customer/one per transaction limit. My question is whether you can buy one for a person who may have bought one for himself. I understand that no Groupon user can buy 2 but can they buy one and receive one as a gift?? If it's like giving someone a gift card, I wasn't sure why you couldn't. Thanks.

Julie S. answered 1 year, 1 month, 27 days, 16 hours, and 23 minutes ago

I bought this last week and used it over the weekend. But it appears B&N didn't process my order and I have to do it all over again. Anyone else had this problem? Did we overwhelm B&N servers?
