I really think that if they got rid of the printing coupons thingy and went to showing the card it would be alot more popular. I do know some people in certain areas that don’t have that many deals but I actually have some pretty good deals and would use them more if I didn’t have to print the coupons all the time.

I got mine and the only good deal was on movie rentals. I don’t rent lots of movies so it’s sitting in my wallet still.

that’s not a bad idea to try and speak with someone behind the card.

I used mine once at Quiznos too. My problem with it is that so many of the stores offering discounts aren’t in my area. I was expecting more relating to gaming. It would be nice if Gamestop or EBGames gave some kind of good bonus for it.

Maybe Deacon should get someone from the XBOX team who is involved with the Goldcard Promotion to speak on the podcast. I’ll give a hand and see if I can dig up a name or two.

BTW Gifter, I think your idea of a Texas Holdem night is a great idea. I am going to make sure I get the game for FREE. I won’t be able to play until Wednesday evening but if you see me online send me an invite!

Does anyone know max players for Texas Holdem?

I’ve used mine about 3 times at Quiznos. Most of the time I forget I have it.

Plus the deals at many places are not nearly as good as when it first started.

I used my card like one time at pappa john’s and not since then. I don’t like that i have to print out cupons to take advantage of the deal’s. I don’t know why MS didn’t put more into the program.

Like a barcode or better yet maybe an FYI to the partiscipating retailer’s. I hate when i tired to use it that one time the employee’s were looking at me like i was outta my mind and didn’t know what the diamond card was!

i think most people expected a card you’d have to swipe instead of just access to print coupons.

you dont need the card at all to get the perks you have to email them and then they email you the coupon!!! its not like a card where they swipe it you hvae to show them a coupon its funny but i think we should all get one so we can be in this little gang and the only way to get in was by having one like a secret password but with the cards get it

I remember hearing alot of talk about the cards. There was mention of the scheme moving to Europe, but I doubt thats gonna happen looking at its success.
