SoCalCyclist Posted October 28, 2008 Posted October 28, 2008 Madagascar doesn't even open till Nov 7th.
nat1jen Posted October 28, 2008 Author Posted October 28, 2008 Madagascar doesn't even open till Nov 7th.Um, Ok. The offer is good today through 1-15-09.
SoCalCyclist Posted October 28, 2008 Posted October 28, 2008 Um, Ok. The offer is good today through 1-15-09.Just seems weird their promo starts today but movie doesn't open for 10 days so you can't even buy the tickets.
SoCalCyclist Posted October 28, 2008 Posted October 28, 2008 I just checked and you can buy tickets nowHmm, won't let me. I get: "This movie opens on Friday, November 7. Showtimes are not yet available in your area. Fandango can send you a FanAlert™ e-mail as soon as tickets for Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa are available." Oh well, guess I'll just have to use it later.

Oh well, guess I'll just have to use it later.I got that too but we only have 1 movie theater close to us, so this is not unusual!! I will check back next week and hopefully can still get in on it!!! Such a good deal, especially with 4 kids!!!!
sbsahm Posted October 28, 2008 Posted October 28, 2008 must depend on the theatre, a great deal for my mil who is taking everyone to see it for my nephew's bday (7 kids and 6 adults) hopefully we have enough mastercards between us, lol.
ukdebc Posted October 28, 2008 Posted October 28, 2008 I just got this message "Sorry this promotion has ended for today, but check back on Fandango tomorrow for another MasterCard and Madagascar offer. "
nat1jen Posted October 29, 2008 Author Posted October 29, 2008 I just got this message "Sorry this promotion has ended for today, but check back on Fandango tomorrow for another MasterCard and Madagascar offer. "Oh no, it's supposed to be good through January. It did say "while supplies last." I suppose that all the tickets could already be gone for the promo, but that would mean that they didn't have very many to begin with. Could they even have a certain quota for each day?
sarienanj Posted October 29, 2008 Posted October 29, 2008 OP-there is a typo in your thread title-you need to buy 1 ticket, not 2, to get 1 free.
ukdebc Posted October 29, 2008 Posted October 29, 2008 "Buy one or more movie tickets and get one free when you use your MasterCard® to order tickets from this page.Here’s how to redeem this exclusive offer: 1. Enter your ZIP code or city name in the box above. 2. Select a theater and showtime for Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa. 3. Be one of the first 250 customers each day to use your MasterCard® during checkout and the price of one ticket will be automatically deducted from your order. " Ok now I understand why it was all sold out yesterday
egirl Posted October 29, 2008 Posted October 29, 2008 Has anyone bought one yet to see if it works? When does it show you the discount on the ticket? Is it one ticket free per transactions? If I wanted 4 tickets, can I buy 1 get 1 and do the transaction twice?

nat1jen Posted October 30, 2008 Author Posted October 30, 2008 OP-there is a typo in your thread title-you need to buy 1 ticket, not 2, to get 1 free.Thank you very much for pointing this out. The number "2" was beside the word "tickets" in the ad, but it was referring to Madagascar 2 and not 2 tickets. Sorry about that, and thank you for catching my mistake. Sorry if I mislead anyone, but it's an even better deal.
jdrd90 Posted October 31, 2008 Posted October 31, 2008 I just bought two tickets and paid for one YAY!!!! It cost me $6.50 for two matinee tickets. Thanks op! I ordered twice, two tickets each time on the same mastercard. So, 4 tickets for $13.00

Thanks.
jdrd90 Posted October 31, 2008 Posted October 31, 2008 Did it give you a printout that says you purchased the tickets or a code or something? How does it work exactly? Thanks.You can print the page with your confirmation number on it. On the day of the movie you simply take the mastercard that you used to purchase the tickets to the ticket window and they will give you your tickets. On the main fandango page you should see on the right side, the ad for this promo, click on that. hthRhonda

I realy wanted to go and it would have been great with a free ticket!
jdrd90 Posted November 5, 2008 Posted November 5, 2008 On the main fandango page you should see on the right side, the ad for this promo, click on that. If you do not see this then my guess is the limit has been met for the day. Try again the next day. hth
onecutemoocow Posted November 6, 2008 Posted November 6, 2008 Grrr I missed this when op posted. Now I dont see anything about the promo.
egirl Posted November 6, 2008 Posted November 6, 2008 I just called fandango and the promotion has ended but a new promotion relating to Madagascar should start tomorrow but he couldn't tell me what it would be....so anyone interested check back tomorrow....
