They gave me a dollar in rewards today for doing nothing.

I did try all week to buy from them but my card wouldn't go through for some reason. It wouldn't work at Kobo. Karen suggested my card had blocked out of country purchases.

Today I got email saying your rewards are empty so we gave you some and it turned out to be a whole dollar! So I went and bought a book and lo and behold the card actually went through! I wonder if my Kobo problem is fixed now too.

The discover15 is also still working.

Since I didn't use last month's credit I'll be grabbing I Own the Dawn and Temptation in a Kilt as my freebies.

Awesome! I got mine at Kobo I forget how much. August is going to be huge month for DANL it seems I need more money.

At Kobo, I use PayPal because I don't get charged any fees for purchasing out of the US. Also, I don't need to dig up my card to enter the card number.

I use Paypal when I have money in there but my money is on my prepaid card right now. Anyway I was able to buy by using their CC Form through Paypal. Books On Board doesn't have this option when paying with Paypal you have to use your account. You can't enter a CC and pay that way.

I no longer get charge out of country fees due to their change in processors. I get charge a state and county tax now on all my purchases so I only buy there if it's the cheapest.

Oh yeah!! Thanks for the reminder, I've had a $1 in credit from BoB sitting there for awhile. Got it for $2.47. Been pretty happy with most of my CP purchases so far, having read over 20 of them and rated most of them as 4s and 5s. Of course I had to grab this one too.

Using PayPal with Kobo recently (last week sometime), I didn't get charged any sales tax.

Pirate Next Door by Jennifer Ashley is on Sale for 99 cents! I've had this on my wishlist for awhile now waiting for a price reduction. The other two books are still $2.99 but I am patient.

Seriously I have no problem paying $2.99 for a historical novel. It's the $4.99 prices I can't see paying that the other authors are using for their self publish books. Good thing for Lendle! I bought the other day Samantha James backlist tiles at $2.99 a piece so I think it's a perfect price but I think putting the first book at 99 cents is smart marketing.

Last post for July! It's time for a new thread!

I got that email, too! I must say, it's a good way to get me to shop there more, just giving me money to spend! Lol!

the discover15 code appears to not work any more at DANL. I'll wait and see if anyone else finds out differently.

Joykins · 08-01-2012, 12:39 PM

OK, I'm looking at the August selections at DANL and I want 3 of them :lol: I have a vow not to spend any more money on books so -- such a tough choice.

JNCalif · 08-01-2012, 01:15 PM

I wasn't able to make the discount code work either, but I'm thrilled I saved last month's credit. I used my credits for the Karen Kelley and Robin Kaye books...and am leaning towards buying the Kennedy and Buchman titles as well.

DANL has AMAZING selections this month. I am so glad they decided to add more choices to the monthly selections. That alone will keep me renewing my membership.

chilady1 · 08-01-2012, 02:50 PM

I hope DANL beefs up their bundle selections, they are a little light in this area.

It didn't work for me either so I didn't buy anything yet.

I think discover15 expired in mid-July sometime... I vaguely recall...

Sorry to poop the party..

I was able to use it on Jult 31. Must have died right after.
