I just used it for one of their flash card programs. Very nice deal.

hmmmm... im wondering if this discount code would work with their Travel Suites (which is already discounted - 5 for the price of 2)...

Probably not. I forgot to mention earlier that this discount cannot be used in conjunction with any other offers.

I don't get it. If you go to their website, Flashcards are priced at 39.95. With a 30% discount it brings it down to around 29$.
If you go to Handango, the same software is priced regularly at 19.95????
Does not make any sense.

Damn you are right! Good catch. I wish I had waited a day to see your post! Thats bad PR for them sheesh! :evil:

Do I feel like a sucker now. :oops:

Better yet. Use the 20% off discount (Theforce) on Pocketgear and get the flashcards for 16$.
On a different note, I checked out the trial version English-Spanish Flashcards and there were a few mistakes already that I found.

So in other words, I should have just flushed my $29 down the toilet! :frusty:

I would demand a refund. This is bad business practice. Personally, I think the language software from Mobilearn is much better and more accurate.

I'll let Darius look into it but I'm not gonna loose any sleep over it. Lesson learned for me. I should have done a little looking around first. :)
