Quote from Sharky : Both coupons above say:

Not hard...you can join when you checkout online
or just grab a card in the store and have them scan that and fill it out later.

..takes absolutely no brain power..but then again I suppose if you're at a bookstore, you're there to increase your knowledge of some form of media one way or another

Nice Catch. However the email in which this coupon was sent states that it is good 10/31-11/2. I suspect a correction email or coupon will be sent (or perhaps they will update this one). If I don't get an update, I will try this one and explain when I go into the store. Would seem odd in the state of our economy that Borders would have an advertisement like a Monster Truck Rally (start dramatic voice) "SUNDAY SUNDAY SUNDAY, Books, Bigger than your brain. More knowledge than your college! One day only. Save 40%....
See attached and print if needed to clarify to cashier/ or Manager if you are met with resistance.

do you not get Borders coupons very often? They do this every other weekend really. they are both good from today until sunday. Cashier just asks to see Rewards, scans book and coupon, and you're out the door..this hasn't been the first time they've offered 40% couponss...

Quote from RonDo : Both coupons are from today till 11/2 midnight EST.

um..what you said

Yes, I get these coupons regularly as well. They don't do 40% as often (unless it is a specific book). The coupon though was showing valid from 11/2-11/2.
However in the upper left corner, it says valid through 11/2. Very adult of you to try and "one up" the OP. geez

The point I was making was that in your coupon as is the same as everyone else got states: "Valid only in U.S. stores through 11/2/08 and at Borders.com through 11/2/08 midnight EST.

Ohhhh... I didn't read the T&A at the bottom..you are correct..my bad No matter..I'm sure you could just bring your email It should still scan fine Borders doesn't bode too well with corrections..um..trust me, they're not too good with handling coupons
EDIT: see below..I FAIL at reading comprehension when staying up to 1am to bake some bread..RonDo is correct..see post below by RonDo on exp. dates.

??? Well you added that after I quoted you..um..how very mature? All I did was help OP with a nicer coupon and anyone else..don't need to be so childish about it..

is there a charge sign up to the Borders Rewards membership?

EDIT: nevermind. link says

Ive never seen a 40% coupon unless its a specific bestselling book or something like you mentioned. This is exactly what I need to get some adobe illustrator , photoshop and websdesign books as well as some up to date programming books for games.

Ive been slacking way off in my book buying. Im was going to start again this month. Ill probably scround around for coupons at Borders and then get the rest at Amazon the next few months. Ive noticed the programming, PC oriented books have shrunk way way down at all the book stores around here since about 2005. There used to be 20-30 Photoshop books alone and around that much on all major topics. I went yesterday and there were about 2-3 of them on lots of topics.
