    UPDATE!!! Both 3REEF and 3REEF5 coupon codes are active.

    3REEF gives 10% off orders OVER $100
    3REEF5 gives 5% off orders OVER $50

    Both codes work when applied online and over the phone. We are not able to give 10% off unless the order is over $100.

    ORIGINAL POST:

    Hello folks,

    I would like to let you know that your forum coupon code has been changed to 3REEF5 which gives you $5 off orders over $50.

    Unfortunately your forum's coupon code has been leaked onto other websites and is being used by everyone on the internet and not just those who have access to this forum. This has forced us to deactivate the current code and promotion, and replace it with a less advantageous promo that is less likely to be abused in the same way.

    Please remember that these promotion codes are given specifically to YOU the 3REEF community. We certainly don't mind your family and friends using this code, but please DO NOT give this promotion out to websites that exploit retailers' promotional codes such as retailmenot.com does.

    We will still honor the original 10% off any order promo code provided you CALL IN and ask to place your order through THOMAS our marine tech who is available MON-FRI 1pm-9pm EST.


    Thanks :)

    The problem is that 3reef has all sponsor sections visible to the public so anyone can get this code just by searching the website. It might be advantageous of Matt to create a forum category for coupon codes and other 3reef sensitive information that shouldn't be viewable to non members. Similar to how there are the forums non-donators can't access I believe.

    We understand that there is a lot of access to the information, even our banner and my signature show the (old) promo code. We just felt we should let you know why we have had to change the promo code over to something new.

    UPDATE: 3REEF is going to remain active as long as the order total is above $100

    If you are running into trouble with it just call in your order and speak with either Josh or Thomas.

    Either rep can honor the 10% discount for you.

    Cool....That stinks that others got a hold of it....I agree to secure it somehow.

    Can you still get the discount and redeem your points when you call in an order though?
