Advance Auto Parts Advance Auto Parts: 15% Off $100 + $50 Off $100 Coupon for a Future Order (Online) - READ THE TERMS CAREFULLY , Internet

Advance Auto Parts had promo stating "Advance Auto Parts: 15% Off $100 + $50 Off $100 Coupon for a Future Order (Online)". If you want to save money and not get ripped-off with this or similar Advanced Auto Parts promo READ THE TERMS CAREFULLY or do like I do, don't shop there anymore. First of all the $100 purchase is before taxes, I got that and added small item on top of the $99.99 purchase I made. However the $50 coupon never came because my purchase AFTER the 15% off was below $100. There were other terms as well probably intended to confuse the consumer. I already installed the item and made changes to my vehicle so I cannot return it. But the beauty of capitalism is that there is competition and I can take my business elsewhere and educate others to be more careful than I was.

I had a similar problem with Advance Auto Parts. I purchased $123 worth of parts from them, and used the promotional code that promised a $50 coupon. I did not receive the coupon, and emailed their customer service, only to be told that I did not enter the "appropriate discount code" while placing the order. This appears to be a canned reply, because I was very careful in entering the correct discount code. When I tried to log on to my Advance Auto Parts account to check my order, I found that my account had been cancelled! Advance Auto coupons are a scam! I will never purchase anything from them again, and am looking into filing a complaint with the FTC.
