Went to McDonald's today to get one for the $10 off coupon and it wasn't there!

Were the coupons only released in certain areas or with certain toys or something? I checked the box and in the toy bag and didn't see a coupon anywhere in there. I got the Kaos one if it matters.

I think the only had them , the day they were released , which was Friday BTW Welcome to

Well darn. And thank you.

No Problem

Seki and whoever that other user that I wasn't able to send one to because of parents: The Happy Meal website also offers a pdf version of the $10 Off coupon. Simply go to the Happy Meal website, click on the "See All Toys" thing, and then click on the right arrow to push the Next Happy Meal thing off to the right. I'd link right to the pdf but...the flash won't let me into internets right now and I think you're all big kids here and can do it yourself lol

Got my second Chop Chop today, making a second full set in the bag. Feels good to be all done with these...yet yearning for more because of how slow it's been on the release front haha

Thank you very much.

did anyone else get an Ignitor with a really bent sword?

also, can I use multiple 10$ off coupons when I buy the starter pack?
I already have 7 of them, dos that mean I can get $70 off the starter pack?
if not, im just going to start throwing them out...

Logically, I would think not. Though on the one I just downloaded and printed off, there is no notice of "Limit one per transaction" or something along those lines as is printed on most coupons to say you can't.

^ my thoughts exactly.
if they say I cant do that, I will just say "show me where it says I cant do that"
is there any come back to that?

You have absolutely zero chance of getting $70 off of a Skylanders starter kit by using seven of those coupons.

Not sure, but you will have to pay any sales tax from the purchase if they agree to accept multiple coupons. The coupon can't deduct that (it says so in the fine print.) If you do try this though, let me know how it goes for curiosity's sake.

There is a line in there about being void where prohibited which a store may construed as them having the right to refuse acceptance of it.

Usually though most coupons contain a line stating "Limit one per customer". Something the coupon in question lacks.

It all comes down to store policy in the end.

Coupons are not gift certificates.
They have no real cash value and every major retailer has policies in place that limit the number of coupons (it's almost always 1 coupon) that can be applied to each item you purchase.

It doesn't hurt for him to try. Nothing ventured, nothing gained. The worst they can do is tell him no.

The worst they can do is laugh at him, ridicule him, make condescending facial expressions at him, and/or embarrass him in front of other people in the check-out queue.

"Nothing ventured, nothing gained" is good advice.

Here's some better advice:

-Bill Cosby

@Hazard335: No, you won't be able to do that.

Essentially, each coupon is worth approximately .001 of a cent; they're not worth $10 each or anything like that. Most retailers will also not allow you to combine coupons with other coupons (stacking them in a sense) although the specific legal language is usually "one coupon per customer".

To be honest, reading over the coupon, there's nothing that says you can't use more than one on the actual coupon. I'd assume you wouldn't, but hey...you might as well try. Just be nice about it and ask if you're able to use more than one. Worst they can do is simply say no, but they'll still take $10 off.

It really floors me that several people in this thread recently have posted that they have hope that a retail store will accept multiple copies of a $10-off coupon to be applied to one item's purchase.

Ya'll need to get out more ....

I sort of wish i had this coupeon when target had their sale. 3ds game was like $40 if the coupon worked with it i'd been $30.

I was thinking the same, it was just a few weeks too late. I picked up the 3DS set when it was on sale for $40 too but really that was a decent price to start with.

I purchased the wii u version for 40 when target had the sale. That is already a good deal from what I take of it. Did you ever get the remaining toys from mcdonalds? Chances are yours got in another shipment as from what I learned on mine after going there last week that they did and had the rest of them for sale.

Yes, $40 isn't a bad deal at all. I used the Target sale to PM at Best Buy so I could get the little lunch box. I use it to store the character cards. The 3DS version is so different from the xbox 360 version though.

I was able to get ones I wanted from McDonalds, which is Kaos, Spyro and Drobot. I also was able to get Crusher. I'd like to get Tree Rex but still trying. McDonalds near me did restock on Friday so they had more in which is how I was able to get Drobot. All in all I am happy, the Kaos is very cool. Did you pick any up?

Yep completed the sets I needed to for family and got the ones I wanted to due to very nice workers in the morning, especially a manager in finding which ones I needed when they were on a little down time.

Down with set 1. Working on set 2

My dad went to McDonald's this morning to get a cup of coffee. He picked up Chop chop for me. 1 down 8 to go!

Congrats as chop chop is one of 4 that doesn't fire things at others and you can appreciate the figure itself. They won't be done selling the toys for another two weeks, but if your dad is able to get more you should be able to get the rest. Good luck

So asking someone if they already made a fool out of themselves is not cruel?
Logical sense says no (cannot add coupons together), but since the question was asked, I was not trying to be cruel, he/she could easily answer their own question and let us know if it worked. Sorry if it came off cruel, that was not my intention.

Mine arrived today.

Here's some work I did

I also sharpies some crystals on crusher

I have a manager holding both the toy display and the poster for me!

^

Please post pics when yo can.

But that means you'll also have 6 Fijit shimmies on your hands.

I know Hazard335 in real life, and we went to Toys R Us today and got are Giants Starter set for 6 dollars and some change, all thanks to 7 coupons.
Im giving it to my little brother since we already have the game since October.
so I recommend everyone to save up there coupons if there collecting the McDonalds Skylanders!

OH MY GOD

SERIES 1.5 DOUBLE TROUBLE AND PAINTED EYE TREE REX HERE I COME

PUNCH POP FIZZ HERE I COME

DracXXX,
Nice...
Thank You for sharing

I'll download 14 of them and get punch pop fizz and royal double trouble for $6!!!

Thank you so much for the info Draculaura. Now I need to get ahold of more of those coupons.

I have enought for BattleGrounds, I hope it works.

AUGH. MUST. RESIST. OPENING. TOYS. I. MUST. COLLECT. I might just buy more, sell the opened ones, and keep the coupons c:

^ I'm with you Taco, kicking myself for throwing the others away. Want to get my nephew the 3DS starter pack for his upcoming Bday.

I have a feeling you ran into the dumbest store employee in the world.
The chance that this will work at all retailers in slim and none.
I can't believe McDonalds and/or participating retailers don't have fine print that excludes this kind of usage of coupons.

This is a freak occurrence. Great score to those who got away with it, but I expect most retailers to deny anyone that tries this.

Actually I just went to several retailers. Target was a big hell no on more than one but walmart the employees were kind enough to check and see, but of course only one rang up to be taken off. I could have probably had the one manager back to see on an override for it, but as some were probably talking on target from going there before here that it could be costly to their job and over a starter pack it's not cool to cheat someone on these. So pretty much no you can't use more than one coupon for the starter packs. Don't bother trying.

Just got back from my adventure with coupons...
I first went to Target and the Sales Employee tried to ring up Battle Grounds ($39.99) but it would only take one coupon, it gave an error stating only one coupon per transaction. At least he tried. The Battle Grounds rang up to $33.xx with one of the coupons. I declined and went to TRU, The lady would not even try, she called her Manager to see if she could use multiple coupons and if Battle Grounds counted. She hung up the phone and informed me that Yes Battle Grounds ($49.99) would work but only use one coupon. I then went to Walmart but they did not have Battle Grounds. I went to Best Buy and ALMOST got lucky. The guy at the register called the manager up front, while he was waiting for the manager he rang them all up for BattleGrounds ($49.99), 5 coupons. It came out to $4.11. The manger had no problem but said he had to go to the back to verify. When the manager got back he explained that he checked the system and even though it did not say that it can/cannot be combined it does say that the store rules apply and there store rule is that they can not combine coupons. Needless to say I went back to Target and got the battle grounds, yes I know it is not the Royal DT, I already had him back on Black Friday, but I have been wanting the other DT that comes with the standard BattleGrounds to complete my collection. I have checked Ebay but no one is selling it for less than $30 so I feel that I got a good deal. This is the 4th of the Double Trouble (1st = S1pose-Green base, 2nd = S2pose-Orange base, 3rd = Royal - Orange base, *4th = S1pose-Orange Base)

Someone try Gamestop and see what they do. I've got 9 of these things sitting here and i'd love to get Royal Dubtrub even though i wouldnt be able to play the game.
