spend $50 at express, get a $25 GC to use later

[bethie_alane]

my local 'express' store has this posted out front by the entrance

spend $50 get a $25 in-store GC to use at some other time...

sorry i didn't read the fine print, but i know that the $25 GC cannot be used with the $50 purchase you make the get the $25 GC

I have done this before and the way it usually works is you spend at least $50, get the coupon for $25 off your NEXT purchase of at least $50 but it has to be used during a specific time.In other words, if you don't get back during that time period (3 weeks?) you lose the discount.You also have to have the original receipt which they staple to the coupon. This can work very nicely when they have their jeans on sale for example. The merchandise is expensive and occasionally when you go back to use the $25 coupon not a thing is on sale, but USUALLY they have sales which make it a better deal or they have those promos where the more you buy the cheaper they get. Definitely worth a try.
