Had a bit of a headache using the Inventables Voucher code so I thought I’d clear up the problem I was having. When you are going to checkout, click the cart. On the right, there will be a box for “promo code”. This is where you want to use your FIRST voucher. If you get to the entering address / information screen, there is a second box called “Apply Gift Cerficate”. This will NOT accept your voucher code.
I clicked through the first screen too quickly and then wondered why I couldn’t put the Voucher code in the Gift Certificate box. Cost me 20 minutes of kicking around to find that first screen again. Also, the voucher code doesn’t cover shipping, so load up on $100 of stuff.
That is strange. We used our voucher on Nov 19th and have already received our order. The voucher code wouldn’t work until I had at least $100 in my cart.
Seconded. Third-ed? We used ours about two weeks ago and had no problems. I wasn’t the one using it, but the person who did order it mentioned nothing of ordering issues.
They have deburring tools, which we might pick up. They also used to have a bunch of useful electrical tools, but they seem to have cut down their inventory over the past year.
for digikey, you have to go through the voucher portal. Read instructions carefully. Don’t set it up with your existing account, just add items in the order form after you’ve entered in team info.
From digikey we usually get the ribbon cable and end clips to make ctre data cables.
From inventables this year we bought a bunch of side-cutters. Our kids like abusing those, so we find them with the tips broken off and we end up losing a couple every year. We also got a digital caliper.
I thought I might find a screen or point to add my voucher code, next thing I know I had made a purchase. I called Inventables and Phil took care of things for me, added my $100 voucher and found some items listed as out of stock and was able to add them to my order as well. Phil had suggested part of the issue was due a website change made for cyber Monday. I suspect the voucher line will be more evident again soon. Inventables, another vendor doing good things for FIRST.
BTW no affiliation with the company just a satisfied customer.
