Snopes is the dope
More than a few readers have written in about the bad link on yesterday's Blockbuster coupon, which really was a steal. Unfortunately, it was too good to be true. Snopes.com, a urban myth-busting site, has the scoop: it was a legitimate coupon at one time. But because of scanners and the Internet and modern technology, the coupon spread to so many more people than intended that Blockbuster decided not to accept it anymore.
In short, I apologize for getting all your hopes up. If you feel like Charlie Brown after Lucy has snatched the football away at the last minute, I understand. I will try to be more vigilant about checking out coupons before I post them, though frauds are awfully hard to detect. Thanks for sticking with me through the occasional bad coupon. I hope all the other sales make up for it. ~Julia
