I just read the email and they were calling it a Black Friday sale. The coupon code was suppose to be 20% off...but it was coming up at 35% off....it was valid until Midnight EST....sorry.
I just tried and it says the coupon code HOLIDAY is invalid. :(
The shopping cart showed the total as $83.60 (or $83.90, I forget) and $10 shipping, but when I started to check out, it changed to $106 and $18 shipping.
Why do I even bother with OMC?

You can still get this deal but the coupon code is now IDEAS. When you add it to your cart it drops to $254 but then add the code and it drops more to $203.
I tried this morning to get the Big Shot Pro with the IDEAS code. I get all the way to checkout showing a discount of $135, and when I click "checkout," THEN a message pops up saying the discount is no longer available and it shows a discount of $88 (32%). (Total is $186.99 for the BSP, plus $16.91 for UPS Ground shipping, for those who want to know.)
WTH is going on over there??
The $88 discount is nice, but what's with lowering the discount only after you click to check out? This same thing happened to me last night when I tried with a Slice in the shopping cart.
Considering all the probs I've had with OMC, especially with preorders (which a BSP would be), and all the shenanigans going on at checkout right now, I'm not sure the current discount is worth it. And knowing OMC, I'll be the last person on the planet to actually get her BSP.
I just tried it and it is $203. I have had nothing but good service from OMC. It is so strange that they are good with some customers but bad with others. I didnt order the G yet though. Still not quite ready to take the plunge. Thanks for telling us of this special though. It is a good price!
I just ordered my Gyspy and with shipping it came to $200.22. I used the code STOCKUP and it worked. I order the 3 limited cartridges and it came to $48.23 with shipping. So I don't think either one of them were bad prices at all. Do you get reward points for the Gyspy?? I have 2250 reward points now. I have 71 cartridges now. Trying to decide what I want to spend my rewards on now.
I just ordered the Gypsy from OMC - I know it'll take forever but I couldn't pass up the $200 including shipping for it and the car charger and the pretty pink sleeve for it. Merry Christmas to me - my husband just said :) YaY!!!!! Hopefully it'll be here by Christmas - if not Happy Birthday to me, HAHA!
Anyone know when they are shipping the Gypsy at OMC?
My total was only around $159 with shipping, around $143 w/o shipping (I got the UPS 3-day shipping which was around $16). This would be about the cost of the Slice alone in the retail market!
With this said...I think I order most of my paper crafting stuff from OMC and have NEVER been unhappy with them! I always get everything quickly, in good condition and when I have had to deal with Customer Service, they have always been very cordial (one time I accidentally ordered the wrong thing, and they fixed it quickly for me!).
