Are you sure it’s on all books? I just tried buying two books and it says they’re not included in the code :frowning:

Hey! They have changed the action or it is a mistake.

I found this action in twitter and quoted the text from Manning site.

Now - there is no info about Day of Earth on link, but I can find it in search on their site:

Their Twitter also talks about Earth Day and the discount code but I just tried again and it keeps telling me the products I’ve chosen are not covered by the discount code.

May be try to write them in twitter?

I sent an email to they support but I’ll tweet them when I get home.

The best way to check discount on manning is to check their twitter:
https://twitter.com/ManningBooks
just add this promocode during checkout dotd042216

Yeah, exactly thats why this discussion is happening. The published code does not work…

I have just tried and it worked. But this is only for ebooks.

I’ve just tried again and it seems to be working now. Maybe a problem with timezones?

I have just tried this one - DOTD042216 - from my first purchase and it works for “The Little Elixir & OTP Guidebook”!

and

Coupon code dotd042316 only applies to certain store items. None of these items are in your shopping basket.

It works for me, so either it is really a timezone thing, or you have the printed version in your cart.

Seems that problem was that I have created link to deal of the day and there is code DOTD042316 - today deal.
And we should use yesterday code DOTD042216 to have 50% off on all books.

Does Prag Prog ever give discounts above 25%? I’d really like to get Programming Phoenix and Designed for Use 2E. 25% off through this forum is nice but I think Prag Prog could step it up a bit, at least when you buy 2 or more books. :stuck_out_tongue:

I’m not sure but I think I bought Programming Phoenix with 40% off during the Christmas discounts.

@alamba78, yes!
Next day after I have bought Programming Phoenix and Programming Elixir there was 40% off on these books!
:joy:

Ouch. LOL.

So, I’ll finish up reading Programming Elixir 1.2, Elixir in Action, The Little Elixir and OTP Guidebook, and Design for Scalability with Erlang/OTP and hope there is another 40% discount before I’m ready to move on to Learning Phoenix. :023:
