    Just ordered a 1420 and will be getting the $200 gift coupon, and was wondering what everyone plans on using theirs for? :)

    Whatever you do with them, just remember to check for % off coupons first. It makes your dollars go further.

    I used a 20% & 10% stackable off of SB E&A (I bought them off ebay) to buy a Canon ring flash. Along with my $250 coupon I had, I paid only $118.xx for a $499.99 flash. What's nice about the $ coupons is that it's taken off before tax!! I only paid about $8 in tax :D.

    Isn't the 200 coupon stackable?

    It is a $200 Gift Card. You use it to pay for the order instead of Credit/Debit/Other Payment Modes.

    It is not a coupon that can be used.

    Are they transferable? Maybe we'll see a bunch on Ebay soon for good prices?

    From my experience, if it's just a coupon code, some are stackable and some aren't (if it's a physical card then it's probably different). I got a $150 coupon code from when I got Complete Care and when I put that code in, it specifically says it's stackable. However, I also got a $250 coupon code from Dell as an incentive not to return my laptop and that coupon must have been specially coded because I could not stack it along with my $150 coupon. I wanted to buy a nice lens for my camera with the $400, but it wouldn't let me use both on one order :(
