NW coupons
I'm not sure if this is the correct place to post this, but I don't think I have access to the coupons/freebies/discount thread.
How can I obtain one of the $100 off NW coupon...aside from buying one from ebay? How does NW distribute them?
Thank you!

I regularly get them in the mail in West Los Angeles, as part of a bulk-mailing coupon/flyer envelope full of promos for dry cleaners, limos, maid services, check printing, etc.
If I had some currently, I'd give them to you, but I didn't find any in my stack of coupons.

Thank you so much! I really appreciate the fact that you would offer it if you had one.

You don't have access to the coupon forum because you either a) haven't been a member long enough and/or b) you haven't made enough posts on FT.
This is to prevent people from just joining FT and trying to get coupons and discounts without contributing to the FT community. Please adhere to the guidelines of FT and don't try to cirumvent things.
I don't mean to be out of line, but it's the way I interpret things around here at FT. We really don't like OT/tangent threads.

I have one or two of them left, but you'd have to offer me more than they sell them for on eBay to rip them out of my hands. I use them up almost as quick as I get them.

I agree totally. On another message board I visit, there are regularly people who post exclusively to look for these coupons and offer no other participation. While I have no proof, it's my belief that a share of these are used for subsequent sale on ebay.

I apologize. I didn't mean to ruffle any feathers. I understand regulars may sometimes be leary of newbies, but my question was perfectly innocent. The reason I stated that I couldn't see the coupon section was to avoid answers like, "You posted in the wrong thread. Go to the coupon section."
A request if I may...please keep in mind that everyone was new here at some point. Some posts could be interpreted as being a snub because someone new doesn't yet know all the rules (spoken and unspoken) right off the bat. And...I by no means expect "freebies" from anyone. I came here to get educated and to participate.

You can find more information from this thread. PD925 discussed there is essentially the same as the PD964/PD886 except for different expiration date. There are a number of other ones (PD924, etc.) that give less discount. The thread below tells it all.

This forum perhaps needs a sticky FAQ.

Coupon Mailings
I get coupons every month in a bulk mailing with restaurant and service provider coupons. Also NWA mails them out periodically as well.
