VMP coupon exclusions?
3It seems that SideDeal does not let you use the coupon “VMP” for their “daily deal” and support does not budge.
I do not find any mention of this restriction other than that the language about the coupon code talks about “eligible” orders. Nowhere does it seem to list the daily deal as non-eligible though.
They also respond with the standard statement saying that they are unable to apply a coupon to a past order… well, I would have applied it but the system did not let me.
Is there a list of the VMP coupon exclusions somewhere for SideDeal and Morningsave?

We cannot use VMP on the daily deal
It doesn’t work on Morningsave Daybreak Deals either.
See this thread from a while ago.

@mike808 thanks for the link, it does not show where this is coming from though. The faq/rules do not list an exclusion. Are they just making up random restrictions as they go?
@datruandi Not random, it just doesn’t work on things that are already cut deeper than usual, so daily specials primarily. There are other exceptions, but I assure you it’s not random or excessive. Generally, daily deals are already cut down lower than the VMP code would save you on the product any other day of the year. On any occasion that you do not see the discount applied after putting the code in, you can assume that the price has already been reduced and the offer is exclusive to members and is thus the price you’re seeing is another perk of VMP as it is.
@datruandi Another thread from 2019 (around the time they launched MorningSave?), so this has been the case for over two years now.

@ExtraMedium Maybe something for Snapster’s thread on ideas for a “cost reveal” button?

@mike808 they should just put it in their rules/faq then what the exclusions are.
@datruandi If you’re a VMP, you’ve been here for quite a while. So the ignorance schtick isn’t gonna fly. VMP isn’t an infinite list of exclusions. It’s benefits for meh.com. Anything else is bonus. Don’t piss in your bowl of cheerios.
If you are unhappy with VMP, cancel.

It might also be some backend issue. I kept getting the error on an item months back, turns out it was out of stock.
