DTV Coupon Troubles
OK, forget the fact that our government has wasted tons of money on issuing plastic coupon cards when an email or paper one would do fine. But I have inadvertantly missed out on redeeming my coupons twice! Each time was near the deadline. Some online sites require a few days before expiration to process the coupon. Just tonight I set out around 9pm to review the models and found a few I'm interested in. Then found a few online retailers.... now it is about 10:45pm. By the time I add to the cart, enter billing info, etc., and finally the coupon info.... it comes back as being expired! Seems this happened last time as well. I think the coupon database clock is set for eastern time, but I am in central time, so should have had the chance to redeem! And of course there seems to be no help in un-expiring the coupons or replacing them now; just lost out again!
