...at backcountry.com for their outlet store's original price starting today ( TAKE50 ). I actually ordered a set of cranks yesterday and they credited my account the additional savings today via chat after I received the flyer. :thumbsup:
Just be sure to confine your shopping to the Outlet tab on the Backcountry website.
I swear, the Backcountry conglomerate of websites is starting to annoy me. How many brands do they need?
Case in point:
I received this 50% code in my email. The email was from departmentofgoods.com. The graphic inside the email said "DepartmentofGoods Outlet - Full price is dead."
So I start shopping at departmentofgoods for an ultralight sleeping bag. They have some Montbell models that were 20% off that I was expecting to take to 50% off. On checkout, code showed invalid. I go to online chat. The service person repeatedly tells me "Backcountry.com IS departmentofgoods. DoG is our outlet site." And I'm trying to tell her that they may be the same company, but they show different stock. The "Outlet" stock is a subset of the DoG stock. After 30 minutes, the service person concedes that the sites are different, and confirms that THIS CODE IS NOT APPLICABLE AT DoG. In other words, no Montbell sleeping bags. So I tell her that this would be less confusing if they didn't send DoG emails with DoG graphics/click-throughs with discount codes which aren't valid at DoG.
Their overlapping brands are beginning to confuse their own employees.
What the deal means is that you get up to 50% off the full outlet price. If an item is 30% off, you get an extra 20%. If the item is already more than 50% off, then no discount. There are a few deals to be had on those items that are less than 50% off.
I like the way they have stuff in the outlet that is already over 50% off. So if you use the coupon code it gets more expensive. What a stupid gimmick "coupon". Whatever the coupon is, it ought to be off of the sale price.
I'm pretty happy with the set of X9 2X10s with BB for $139 shipped...the extra $28 I save over the already low outlet price pretty much payed for the Niner cog I got too.
