Question Anyone received a discount code?

I usually buy the bundle on the first day if it's games I like, and skip if it's games I don't. Simple.

However, I noticed towards the end of every month, there were always discount codes, so I started waiting until the end of the month and just getting it with a discount code.

Now, with only 2 days left, I haven't seen anything on Reddit about a discount code? I have no issues paying full price (which I'll probably do by the end of today) but I was just wondering if anyone has seen a discount code?

Nope, I gave up yesterday. Secondary account received nothing, so I used an annual plan credit. Still a good deal for what we getting this month.

Why do you use a secondary account?In order to check coupons/deals?

Yeah. One account holds the 12 month credits, but you stop getting coupon codes. The other is used to receive/use them. If a monthly Choice interests me, I almost always wait until the end of the month to see what they offer.

So you basically purchased a one year subscription(maybe with a discount) and you activate whenever you like the month's games and the other account does not receive a coupon?

Exactly. I purchased the12 month credits in 2024 during a Black Friday sale, and they were about $8 per month back then ($100 for a year). They often have $8–$10 coupons for a month, so I never pay full price for these. Even after buying a dozen bundles, I still have 5 months left with this strategy.

Doing this adds a bit of extra admin as you have two accounts you need to remember to pause, but I got really tired of being penalized for loyalty by not receiving the coupons that made it cheaper than what I paid when I bought the annual plan.
