Anyone receive Amazon $25 gift card or credit?

[430752]

Regarding a recent bargain alert: About a month or so ago, amazon had a promo for $25 amazon credit (or gift card, etc. - like a rebate, but not a check/cash) if you bought $199 in certain tools and accesories. This was at the time the bosch router kit with extras was $167. I got that kit (recently delivered) and some other minor stuff I thought was within the promo parameters to qualify for the credit/rebate/etc. I thought the promo terms said I'd get the credit/rebate in mid-august or so.

So, anyone got it yet? I'm pretty sure my stuff qualified, but if others got it already and I didn't, I'd like to know so as I can raise a stink with Amazon.

thanks,

I called Amazon the other day and they said they should be coming out any day now.

They must be holding off from mailing it out.. Probably holding until the $25.00 off $199.00 promo is over so that we can't combine.

Anybody received this at all?

Still no for me

And now I'm getting more than curious. I clearly remember them saying it would be out in mid august, but not being specific. I also figured they were waiting for a promo to end, and thought it might be end of August. But mid september, if it comes, is pretty much outright lying. They can't run a promo and then delay it for a logn period of time cuz it suits their needs.

well, another reason for me to continue to frequest coastal tool and others.

I contacted their customer service and ask about the $25.00 and at first the CSR said that Makita was the one offering it and I said no it was not Makita because it was at their Tools & Hardware page, she put me on hold and finally said that they will refund my card with $25.00.. Told her that I was going to use it along with my current rewards gift certificates.. She put me on hold again and said that the $25.00 should be on my account and should be available during check out.. I have not looked at it yet because I am waiting for another $25.00 from the Chase rewards account and I am afraid that if I go to the check out screen, it might void the coupon or cause it to not work on an actual purchase. I'll be pissed if finally I have a valid order and the $25.00 is not there.. Hopefully the $25.00 chase rewards will come in the mail this week. All in all $100.00 chase rewards gift certificates + $25.00 coupon that CSR claimed on my account + the $50.00 off $300.00 promo should work well for a Delta or Jet drill press that I am needing.

Not sure about the $25 credit/gift card you're referring to, but there does seem to be a $25 off $150 with code ALLTOOLS. This 14.4V Milwaukee drill/impact driver/light combo seems to qualify and looks like a good deal for $154 ($179-$25). Compares very favorably to the Makita combo that BORG was running a few weeks ago for $137. See http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...791121?ie=UTF8
