Courtesy of the mobileread forum, it appears that with the changeover to a new kobo checkout, there is a multiuse 75% coupon code.
Can't be used on all books; best luck on books that do not end in 99c
Don't know how long it will last, so add to your to-be-read list while you can
Hmm, it's not letting me continue without providing a credit card.
I've never used a credit card on Kobo, always just placed orders via Paypal. Anyone know how to get around this?
Set your billing address to USA or Canada in your Kobo account. Although the books you want may not be available or eligible for coupons if you do this.
There's also a Paypal issue right now, sometimes it stays on "order to" status. Although you can still download the ebook, you can't remove a credit card from Paypal if it's used to fund that order.
thanks, worked for my book :)
tough luck as it says "This promotion code is already redeemed." when i tried to redeem the code.
Still working for me
It's not really a multi-use 75% off code, there's a glitch in the new Kobo checkout that allows already redeemed codes. You'll get an error if you reach the old checkout.

I actually did incognito as well but still the old checkout.
Just out of curiosity, does anyone use the Kobo Glo / Aura / Aura HD eReader? I've been looking into them as an alternative to the Kindle Paperwhite, since it'll be easier to import my Google Play library, but opinions seem mixed.
I use a Kobo Glo.
Whats your question?
What are your impressions? Is it good value? No problems with it?
Thanks in advance.
Mine is great, but the native epub support tipped the Glo in favor over the Paperwhite for me, as well as expandable memory. They are roughly the same price, but i'm sure you could shop around for a bit of a discount (Bought my glo from JB for $145). No problems with mine, i'm pleased.
Cheers. The ePub support is a differentiating feature for me too.
Like Dav15 epub suppot was the deciding factor.
I bought 3 in March from Officeworks (price-matching Harris Technology http://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/90888)for $131.10. We (myself, Mum & Sis) love them and they last nearly 3 weeks with daily use of a couple hours reading.
I use Calibre to manage them and can even convert a few of my Kindle books to epub.
Thanks. I'll have to get my hands on one to try it out (it'll be my first eReader). Still not sure if it's worth the purchase, considering I already have a Nexus 7, though.
Got a few books for a steal but it looks like it's blocking the codes now. Great find OP.
I got too excited after buying several books that I hit the buy button too soon and paid full price for one.
Don't know why but I can't seem to get the code to work :/
Edit: Never mind forgot to look for non agency books
Doesn't work for me :(
Error is "Oops! Something went wrong. Please review your payment information and try again."
Worked for me on 3 purchases this morning. Cheers OP.
FYI you can filter books that accept promo codes which is a nice feature.
Are you paying in AUD? When I log in everything is AUD and the coupon code isn't accepted.
Yeah AUD. I think only certain books are allowing the code.
If it does't end in .99c then there's a very high chance that the code will be accepted
FI the filter is't entirely accurate it will knock out titles that will also accept the code
Can anyone please let me know if I can use a promo code for this book

Photographer's Guide to the Sony DSC-RX100 - Getting the Most from Sony's Pocketable Digital Camera
Thank you.
It is couponable in both the Australian and US store however this code will only work if you can get the new style checkout to appear as per the pictures in @ohdears post. I am hearing reports that the new style checkout has been disabled in most stores as of this morning still checking it out to see if that's true.
In the mean time here's a couple of smaller codes that should work in the old checkout
oct50 (50% off)
Comeback7_754 (35% off)
test50 (50% off)
yournext862 (50% off)
thanks
awesome find OP
