    Ok, so it's not like I would be rushing out to Best Buy any time soon to take advantage of this breathtaking 10%-Off 'Birthday' coupon...

    But still..

    I mean really, why even send out a coupon at all?

    *****

    Wouldn't it be easier to state what you CAN use the coupon on? Is anything even left? Maybe a cable or a DVD or maybe a USB charger or something?

    Thanks, Best Buy!

    After quickly scanning those exclusions, you can go for a Phillips Hue system or a quality wireless router.

    Yes, it's Happy Fun Ball! The toy sensation that's sweeping the nation! Only $14.95 at participating stores! Get one today!

    Warning: Pregnant women, the elderly, and children under 10 should avoid prolonged exposure to Happy Fun Ball.
    Caution: Happy Fun Ball may suddenly accelerate to dangerous speeds.
    Happy Fun Ball contains a liquid core, which, if exposed due to rupture, should not be touched, inhaled, or looked at.
    Do not use Happy Fun Ball on concrete.
    Discontinue use of Happy Fun Ball if any of the following occurs:
    itching
    vertigo
    dizziness
    tingling in extremities
    loss of balance or coordination
    slurred speech
    temporary blindness

    Happy Fun Ball may stick to certain types of skin.
    When not in use, Happy Fun Ball should be returned to its special container and kept under refrigeration. Failure to do so relieves the makers of Happy Fun Ball, Wacky Products Incorporated, and its parent company, Global Chemical Unlimited, of any and all liability.
    Ingredients of Happy Fun Ball include an unknown glowing green substance which fell to Earth, presumably from outer space.
    Happy Fun Ball has been shipped to our troops in Saudi Arabia and is being dropped by our warplanes on Iraq.
    Do not taunt Happy Fun Ball.

    Better than my b-day deal from Sprint. I clicked the link and they offered me a discount on something candy crush related.

    I'm confused. Were you expecting a cookie cake?

    Be thankful they remembered your birthday. I remember the last time Circuit City forgot to send me a birthday email and they ended up bankrupt a year later.

    There's many items to choose from. Plus selections may vary depending on location so it would be too hard to list.
