Musician's Friend - 12% off at MrRebates.com

Sign in to disble this ad
This works, I just ordered an Ampeg BA115 combo yesterday. It was "used in mint condition" so it was already discounted. Then I got another 10% off because they are still running their additional 10% off used gear deal (CODE USED0811). THEN... since I had a MrRebates.com account activated (just signed up for this purpose) and clicked through to Musician's Friend from MrRebates.com, it somehow worked in getting me 12% off my already pretty-nicely-discounted purchase. It doesn't give you any indication that it "works" until about 24 hours later. I placed my order yesterday morning and this morning got an e-mail saying I had cash in my MrRebates account. Now granted, you have to wait 90 days to cash it out. But it is 12% of what I paid for the amp, plus an additional $5 for opening the MrRebates account.

The BA115 was "used like new" for $330.59 + $10.81 shipping (I guess it's too heavy or big to qualify for free shipping - no matter.) After the 10% MF code, 12%+$5 from Mr. Rebates, I'm paying a net amount of $267.64, so about 20% off total. (MrRebates was applied to the net price AFTER the MF discount, not including shipping.)

Nice goin'...now that's working every angle to your advantage. Free shipping would have been great but hey, you made out like a bandit.

Yes, I just learned of MrRebates recently (and spread the word a few places, I’m sure somewhere on this forum) and made at least one purchase from MF with it.

12% is significant, especially seeing as I always utilize some kind of other sale/discount (as you did) when I make purchases.
