You sure it doesn't say "if you aren't going to use it" give it to friends, etc. I'm pretty sure the codes are single use...or else I'd hope we'd see some 50% ones posted here!

Just ordered the invisible Shield. First time I did the free iPad email, I got 10%; Did it with another email and got 50%. Total cost was 10.48 (including 2.99 shipping).
As a comparison, today, Best Buy has the Eris invisible shield for 20.99 (in store)...

I've written several of the other companies today to try to find out but I'm sure it wouldn't hurt for others to join in. If they hear that there's interest, they're bound to make them.

Just write one generic letter and copy and paste to all of them. It's as easy as I could make it for everyone.
EDIT: Best Skins Ever sent me an automated response and said that they will base the speed at which they come out with a new skin on the number of requests they get for it. So they encouraged people to ask others interested to write in as well. Please flood 'em with requests! I've heard that they're great skins and much cheaper than the Invisible Shield. Plus, less orange peel effect according to reviewers.
Awww, snap! That's a bummer.

Thanks - tried it from my wife's laptop and got 40%. I'll take it!

Geez people, to get the 50% off all you have to do is put your email address in there and an email gets sent to you instantaneously. If you're going to order from them, guess what they are going to get from you anyway? Your email address! What's the problem? I'm not so Apple-phobic that I won't take an iPad if it's given to me.

Not bulky at all! Have it on my Zune. Definitely is great for peace of mind.
Fingerprints are a problem, though. Have to admit that. I'm kinda considering waiting for one of the other skins to make a screen protector because I've heard that a couple of them in particular are less orange-peely (is that even a word??)
The problem is 50% isn't guaranteed. People are asking for codes because it says you can get up to a 50% discount. They aren't upset about giving an email address...I only got a 30% code when registering for the contest.
For those of us trying to get the lowest possible initial cost on our phones, here are two things that I have done:
1. I am not the primary on a family share plan (boyfriend b/c his employee discount is bigger, but he doesn't have a smart phone), so I don't get the additional NE2 discount. I called and VERY NICELY spoke a sympathetic customer service rep. I told her that even though I am the secondary line, my phone includes data and so I am the most expensive line. She offered to switch to me the primary, but I don't get the discount until the next go around. I then told her that I hated doing this and I feel a little tacky saying it, but that I get a significant employee discount through Sprint and they have a phone coming out this summer I'm very interested in. I would prefer to stay with Verizon because of the coverage and the service I have received, so I was hoping that they would be willing to work with me. So she offered me the NE2 discount because I have been a longtime customer. She also said that I would need to do order it with them over the phone which means I don't get the instant rebate. With phone orders, she said you still have to mail in your rebate. She said I could do it online and then speak with them to credit back the money to my account. Same with in-store purchase. I asked her if I could take care of it at Best Buy and she said probably not, but it's up to them.

Note: Some Best Buys require that you have bought your old phone at Best Buy, but a lot of them don't.

- I called Best Buy, and again spoke to them VERY NICELY, and explained my situation to them. Told them I had always purchased my phones from Best Buy and would prefer to continue to do so. She checked my account and found the note from the Verizon Rep and she said that they could apply it, no problem. Again, it's technically not a NE2 discount so maybe that is why they were able to do this, it's just a courtesy credit.

No, it ISN'T guaranteed that you'll get 50% off! You get somewhere between 10%-50% off. So several of us got less lucky and ended up with almost worthless discounts. I mean, sheesh...you can get 20% off Zagg coupons by doing a simply Google search. It isn't that I don't want to give them my address. In fact, they already have it because I'm on their mailing list and I can always opt out anyway. We were all just hoping for a better code so we have a slightly smaller hole in our pockets.
used to be 5% here. now its 6%. best thing is the 300 tax cap.. (comes in handy when buying a car) fyi im waiting till the vzw site lets me pre order. my ne2 is up.. so does that mean i can get it for 99? (i have the old 100 one) and my plan is a 20% off one does that apply to phones also? wife works for the state (thank god for that 20% and cheap health ins.. haha)
It's very likely that you're eligible for you annual upgrade, which would mean 199 + 20 upgrade fee, but no NE2. that's the situation I'm in, and I'll settle for that.
