So, Varese thinks they're going to generate business with a fake Black Friday sale?? I guess their thinking is that people will add items to their carts, enter the code, see it doesn't work, but buy anyway? Doesn't seem like a good strategy to me. Pass.
But thank goodness you were clever enough to see through their devious plot. Good work!

We’ll begin with a box, and the plural is boxes,
But the plural of ox becomes oxen, not oxes,
One fowl is a goose, but two are called geese,
Yet the plural of moose should never be meese,
You may find a lone mouse or a nest full of mice,
Yet the plural of house is houses, not hice.
If the plural of man is always called men,
Why shouldn’t the plural of pan be called pen?
If I speak of my foot and show you my feet,
And I give you a boot, would a pair be called beet?
If one is a tooth and a whole set are teeth,
Why shouldn’t the plural of booth be called beeth?
Then one may be that, and three would be those,
Yet hat in the plural would never be hose,
And the plural of cat is cats, not cose,
We speak of a brother and also of brethren,
But though we say mother, we never say methren.
Then the masculine pronouns are he, his and him,
But imagine the feminine: she, shis and shim.

I just tried to checkout using my tablet... in case the issue was with my computer (browser, whatever) and I STILL get an error message that says "The code did not match any active gift card or discount".
FAKE sale. People who say the code "worked" for them? I don't know. Varese employees perpetuating the charade? Maybe I'll just place the order, include a note asking for the discount, and do a chargeback (dispute for the amount of the discount) with my credit card issuer if I don't get it? I don't know why Varese has to make this so difficult. Do they want my money or not??
BTW, the last time they had a sale via a discount code... it did work for me. The problem is NOT on my side. Varese, PLEASE fix this. Is drivingmissdaisy paying attention to this thread any longer?
email sent to Varese. Don't know if they're going to respond, though. Maybe Monday? Hopefully the Little Box of Horrors doesn't sell out (I know it's not included in the sale, but I want to buy other items and place ONE order to save on shipping).

I have no idea what kind of glitch is going on, but when I applied the code it DID work. And my MAC is 8 years old with spotty internet. Just call Varese or email and they will figure out the problem. Otherwise, IT'S NOT FAKE!
Anyway, I bought SUPER 8 after seeing the movie for the first time last night, even though the discount meant taking 75 cents off $4.99. I DO think a big company like Varese Sarabande, can afford a bigger discount than 15%.

the plural of vinyl is "vinyl records", not "vinyl's"
And you should start a sentence with an upper-case letter, shouldn't you? 
And in reality, "vinyl records" is not a plural form of vinyl. The phrase is a way of describing it as being more than one, but in reality English grammar has rules for making words plural and it doesn't include adding another word to it.
https://www.englishgrammar101.com/module-1/nouns/lesson-3/singular-and-plural-nouns-1
A quick search indicates "vinyl" is actually the plural of vinyl. In fact, somebody has gone to some trouble to make certain people understand this:

@ DMD- Thxs for checking. Still not working for me. I'll use your plan "B" option.
Curious if you can take a screen shot of the page after you have put in your discount of SAVE15 so I can see the items in your cart, see you put in SAVE15 and the error message? Thanks a ton!!

Here ya go. Here's a "mock" order so you can see. (I tried several times with CD's and Movies.)
Once I click submit the page refreshes but the discount doesn't apply. There's no error messages of any kind.

I'm absolutely speechless. Also, The Blue Lagoon isn't one of our titles. You do know Varese ONLY sells their own product on their website, so seeing THE BLUE LAGOON should have been the first clue, since why would a VARESE promo code work on a NON VARESE CD? Glad it worked out.
WOW!
