Durring spooktacular can you use a gift card and reward points for the same purchase? I know that usually you can't, but since you can use more than one gift card I was curious if you could combine it with reward points too..

You can't. While the transaction will go through, it will be adjusted or cancelled before shipping...

 

[FeatheredSerpent]

Thanks. I was hoping you could...

Nice congrats! It was my first as well and it was totally worth it. I got a bunch of freebies, an insane discount on my first PF and won a Saw Plush in the contest... THANX!!!

I'm holding my breath hoping either frodo or lurtz pf come up with a big discount so i can get my first pf!

I have them and they are awesome..Hopefully they'll discount one so you can grab one. Lurtz is one of my favorites.

yeah i've want him ever since i saw the pictures but at $250 and $350 they're just too expensive for me without a discount or the $100 gift card that i'll hopefully win today.

Good luck. they are both great pieces and even better in person.

 

[superdoug]

thanks. by the way are they in scale with each other?

 

[FeatheredSerpent]

Yeah. Frodo is only 13.5" and thats on top of a 3" base. Lurtz is 22.5" on a 2.5" base. So Frodo is quite abit smaller, but I love the detail in his outfit and base.

It kind of sucks to wake up on the west coast and see contests all ready done but they never do any late at night when the east coasters are in bed... oh well. I think next year I can just skip it all since I am 0-2 in Spooktaculars now.

Don't give up yet..Hopefully they'll finish today with some easier ones...I haven't won any freebies since they changed the contests and you have to guess the codes...I woke up intime to see the contest but it ended before I could really search for anything..

 

[Darth Madden]

Yeah, and of course I'll be at work or they will end in 2 minutes like most of them seem to. At least I took advantage of the discounts and a gift card to get the LOTR Weathertop Environment for $26. I figured for that price its worth it. I guess I still have a chance for Stealth Iron Man... come on Iron man.

Congrats, Madcow! You bought the same PF as me (Freddy PF), so I give you props! Congrats on the Saw Plush. Alas, I didn't get it. Unless I win one later today, I will probably buy it during 99 cent shipping...

Sorry I haven't been posting here more. Been in IRC Chat the whole time.

Spook has been great again this year. Big thumbs up from swabs! Never hurts scoring a pile of freebies and prizes and seeing all the new swag! Hope everyone scored at least something they wanted!
