I just bought 3 things for a total of $3.25(3 different transactions).
For the people above, your total needs to be at least $5.01!
Thanx Dan!

@SB: The three different transactions were within the same log-in name? Or you made three different user names? And what did you buy

How to check out with a total of $0
1. Apply promo codes.
Once your order is $0 the cc info area will disappear, but a cc is required for the order to go through.
2. Press the back arrow on your browser till you see the pre-discounted price. (note: you only have to go as far back as to remove one promo code so your total will be above $0.)
3. Enter your cc details and press submit.
When submitting it will automatically apply the code you entered previously and will charge your card $0.
Just tried this method twice

Got the free ship code to work. Wouldn’t take the $5 off code. “We’re sorry, this coupon cannot be applied at this time.” How did anyone get it to work?
24
December 17th, 2012 at 10:44 pm
They cancelled all orders. Anything to do about it? Attached is the email..
Last Saturday’s promotion was only valid for one order per customer and we found multiple orders from you in our system. As a result we’ve canceled your previous orders and want to give you another opportunity to select the items you like the most!
Receive $5 off your order with no minimum purchase and free shipping when you enter promo code XXXXXXXXXXXX at checkout.*
Thanks for your understanding and happy holidays!
