haberkdrew Posted November 17, 2005 Share Posted November 17, 2005 This worked! It's a great idea for Christmas presents if you find restaurants your friends/family like. You will not receive a message about TicketNow until you finish paying. The code for that is in your confirmation email. I have a question. On the confirmation page, it says I can get a free subscription to one of 3 magazines. However, if I don't want the subscription they will send me a rebate of $9.99. Has anyone tried this? It would be a great deal if you bought $10 worth of certificates, got a rebate of $9.99 plus the $50 certificate for TicketsNow.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
msomnipotent Posted November 17, 2005 Share Posted November 17, 2005 Thanks! I forgot to buy more to make up the difference with the discount, and I ended up with $6 in total. Now I have to go buy more for the $50 gift card! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

megnsamsgrace Posted November 20, 2005 Share Posted November 20, 2005 I thought they used to have GC to other partners or something? I cant find it on the website! PS Forget it, I see it on the side now when looking at restaurants Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eve Posted November 20, 2005 Share Posted November 20, 2005 does anyone know if you can stack the $10 Kabloom gc's? Say get 4 and then be able to use all 4 = $40 on one order? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
labgeek Posted November 22, 2005 Author Share Posted November 22, 2005 does anyone know if you can stack the $10 Kabloom gc's? Say get 4 and then be able to use all 4 = $40 on one order?Not unless they changed it @ Kabloom. It was that you had to enter the GC code as a Promo or Coupon Code, and their system limited you to 1 code. Which also means you can't use a Free Shipping and/or Vase code (if those are still out there) with it either IIRC. edit - You should be real careful to get the best deals from the online flower companies. The price and shipping differs depending on how you got there. Some deals are better than others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eve Posted November 22, 2005 Share Posted November 22, 2005 ok i wasn'tsure if it would be used as a gc or a code. Becouse it didn't say either way on the site, like it does with the other codes.. ex. $25 with a min. $35. spent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

meo Posted November 22, 2005 Share Posted November 22, 2005 Ditto! my parents are older, too much "stuff" and don't need anymore -- they like to eat out, and this is awesome esp since we're far away..still not sure where to spend the tickets money...LOL!!! PS _- my restaurant of choice said it was "out of stock" but no indication of when they'd be back in stock, etc...so I called them direct, the restauarant manager said he'd call and get back with me within the hour...so I guess I'll find out!

I wanted phantom of the opera $160 on tickets now same tickets $68 on ticketmaster Tickets Now is a "Secondary ticket" market. You only want to use it for events that you can't go through through the original sellers for... that is Sold Out events. Why are the tickets on your site listed above face value? Licensed ticket brokers generally sell their tickets at prices above face value. This price is known as the ticket's "market value." The only place you can purchase tickets at face value is through Ticketmaster or a venue box office. However, it is important to note that these primary sellers often charge additional service fees—creating actual prices that are higher than the amount listed on the face of the ticket. Licensed ticket brokers specialize in obtaining desirable seats for high-demand and sold-out events. They get these tickets from a variety of sources including season ticket holders and individuals who have extra tickets for events. To obtain these high-demand tickets, brokers pay a premium, or a price often well above face value. They then sell these tickets at market value. The market value price for a ticket is determined by many factors including seat location, supply and demand, date and location of event, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
