What's the secret with the 3 cent Coupon offer?
« on: July 13, 2016, 11:33:22 am »
I clipped 3 coupons but didn't get credit for it yet. Does it take a while to credit?

Since most of the videos are not crediting for me, I have not tried that one.  Usually you get credit after you use the coupon.  I would be interested to know if ever work in the future.

I don't know about this one, but I have never had to use the coupon to get credit.  But my experience was that they would run like the rest of the videos at that time,  if the others were pretty reliable at crediting the odds were much better, if the others were glitch so these.  I just learn not to have high (or any) expectations on the videos, so it is like Christmas when the simplest ones work/credit!! lol

Appy -- that's the attitude I try to maintain, too.  If I don't have high expectations, then it is a great gift when the videos actually DO credit.  I have never tried the coupon thing.... I can't keep track enough to remember when 7 days are up (I think that's a dumb requirement anyway), so I just don't even try.  The Hopster Coupons (under Repeatable Daily) are reliable and credit consistently.  I was worried about installing the printer interface, but it works like a charm (in IE, not Firefox for me).

Well, it credited, but I don't know how long it took. I only know that it credited after I left FC yesterday.

I was on FC almost an hour and it hadn't credited by then. I was hoping to complete the PTC using that credit, but no such luck. So I missed out on the PTC yesterday again.

I know most of the videos that don't credit so avoid them most of the time, only trying them occasionally to see if they are crediting or not...haven't had much luck with the coupon ones so avoid them more

I got one of the 3 cent coupon offers to credit after printing the 'clipped' coupons.  I think crediting on this offer has to do with successfully printing the coupons.  But next time I tried (it was more than a week later) I couldn't get the selected coupons to print.  No credit received.

I've done this a few times, never had it credit. But at least I DID save money while shopping.

Having said that, I do get credit while clipping for cash/points on other similar sites.

Most of the time, you have to actually use the coupons at the store to get any kind of credit. ???

I don't think you have to use the coupons to get the credit. Just clip them. Using them is just a bonus. But I only received credit the first time I did the offer. When I tried after that it never credited. It may have been a one time only offer.

It credited at 10:45 P.M. and I was on FC in the morning. That's almost 12 hours after I did it!
