Late e-mails and expired coupons

Ugh - I hate when things don't come together.

A couple of months ago I was rewarded a coupon for $5 at YesAsia.com (you pretty much get one with each order - if only to get you to order again soon). They send an automated email when your coupon's about to expire. According to the text in said email, it's implied that you should get this warning about 10 days before the expiration. Problem: my expiry was today and I got the e-mail yesterday. In the time it took me to login and view my coupon code it had already been wiped.

This particularly bugs me because just last night I was thinking about doing another mail order (see previous blog-entry). And on top of this, there were indeed a couple of Asian DVDs I wanted - but didn't because I figured I'd save on shipping by waiting until "House of Fury" came out... and it won't for another two weeks.

Grr... Looks like back to full-pricing for me. ~_~;
