I am getting ready to order some things from Tower. They are offering $25 off for orders over $200. Would it be wrong for me to place several $200 orders instead of one large order? They have not sent me gold promos in a while so this would save me the most money.

I did it that way one time and had no problems

Short of cars what the hell are you ordering! lol

Lol. Have not figured it all out yet. The car will be the biggest portion. I just need to figure out which one I want to get. I am leaning toward the Hyper 8 but the RC8 looks good too.

I wanted to go with the 5B but my brother wants to start racing locally and like he said, that car is just too big for local tracks.

Well, I get the international ones through, and they state "Please, only one promotional ad number per order"
which makes me think it will work as often as I want. Obviously with International shipping multiple orders is not really an option, cost wise.
Not to Hi-jack the thread, but I am putting together a Tower order from the UK, so if any UK guys want some small bits not worth ordering separately, let me know

Then let me help you out. I need a Hi Lift, and two full on JPS chassis and gearbox set-ups for my clods. That should help break at least one $200 goal.

You sure you don't want a B4 with that?

B4 or after, it doesn't matter to me.

They make plenty of money, I think they could absorb your $25 per 200 quite a few times over.

I just did this last week. By combining the special offer and the super saver discounts, I got an LRP Z28R spec3 truggy motor with a couple extra plugs for $170 shipped priority. Then, a "scratch and dent" FM 3PKS for $220 shipped regular ground/free with super saver club. I plan on doing it again next week to place a large order of small items I've been putting off for a while, and then another order for the Fasst system for the 3PKS.

If your not allready a super saver club member, join on your first order, it is effective immediately, so you will get free regular shipping on that order, when you add the cost ($14.99) of SSC it works out to about the same as just paying regular shipping. Once you are a member of the SSC regular shipping is free on all orders over $150, so your next order will have free shipping and whatever special offer you use. Also, if you want something shipped priority or express they still take $8.99 off the price of that to cover your free regular shipping. Not to mention you get first crack at the "scratch and dent" items.

One more thing. Check http://www.retailmenot.com/view/towerhobbies.com for the latest greatest special offers from Tower.

I spend so much $$$ on R/C stuff, I have to take advantage of every oppertunity to save. It's not like Tower is loosing money by us doing this, they are the ones putting these offers out there.
