    Not as good as it looks:
    I ordered from Boarders and used a discount code that they sent me. It was for 20% off.
    The book I wanted to buy was 10% off. And I also got free delivery-

    I saw the total I saw that I paid was one amount.

    My card was not charged this amount though, it paid more, the email receipt they sent me, also showed I had been charged more.

    The reason, as the customer service team told me (despite many emails, I still had to call them rather then the other way around) was because, you are only allowed one offer or discount at a time.

    Worth noting if your going to use a discount code, even their own discounted books will mean any discount you use will override the already discounted book which will go back up to full price just so you can have your discount code applied.

    I am sticking with Amazon personally. I would far rather see the price I am paying on the bill I am about to pay, and not sent a receipt showing I have been charged more then I initially agreed to. Be careful with this one!
