i believe to use the groupon you have to be a first time customer...and then you just check out in the blue box and put all the info in.

I'm not really sure because this is my first groupon purchase! :D I placed my order and groupon will send a confirmation e-mail within the next 24 hours. I assume once my order is finalized I will receive a promo/voucher code to use on the BarkBox website?

So it's $60 for the coupon code itself. Then you enter the code on barkbox's website? And it's free? or it's $60 off a six month subscription? Or do you then pay $60 for the boxes

It's $60 for the 6 month supply.

Look on the FAQ on the BarkBox Website and they have a "GROUPON" section it states:

I purchased a Groupon - now what?

Head on over to barkbox.com/g and enter your voucher number and claim your code! Follow all of the steps and the coupon will be applied on checkout.

Mine came through as $45 for 6 months. I assume I get a code to enter on the website

Thank you! What a great deal :thumbup: I got my code but can't use it til tomorrow, lol :cool:

I received (and used) my code within minutes.

I've gotten 2 boxes so far and had signed up for a 6 month subscription. I'm still kinda torn but like them for the most part.

This month, we got a elephant toy that lasted almost 15 minutes before getting destroyed, some Milk Bone trail mix (I'm not really a Milk Bone fan and Toki wasn't even interested and she eats EVERYTHING), some Elvis dog treats from Bocce's Bakery (love love love!), deodorizing spritz (probably won't use it), and a Moose antler portion (Toki went to town on this!).

Last month we got dog bubbles (which I pretty much threw away after using once) and I ended up taking the Spinz chew to work for the community dog to have. And the poop bags that came in the box are...well...poop bags. So they got used but it's not really something I want to see in a BarkBox in terms of new products to try out. Toki really enjoyed the Yumzies treats and went bananas over the toy steak that came in the box though.

I will say that it is fun getting something in the mail each month and I have found 3 products in the 2 months we've gotten boxes that I would be willing to pay full price for and that I would repurchase as gifts or just for my own dogs.

Wonder why you got to use yours instantly. I will just have to be a good girl and practice patience :D

IDK......maybe the same reason I was "awarded" an additional $15 discount?????

I'm ending up paying $7.50 a box over the next 6 months ~ surely I can get that much enjoyment out of it!!!

I plan to use most toys and some treats as Christmas gifts for my Mom's Dachshund, Rudy. Rudy is less picky than my girls :D :wink: :winky: :D

I just purchased the 3 months through groupon. Jada has lots of allergies and don't really need the toys...but I have 3 doggie nephews that I buy Christmas gifts for..they aren't picky either:)

So they get a box each!! (after Jada and Bogie have a look-see first :winky: :wink: :winky:)

Oh wow coupons...okay groupon has pusged me over the edge on trying it...going on the list if "free spending money" we're on a serious budget with 3 kids 3 dogs and one income...but lesss than $10 a month!!!

I can always donate unused items to the animal control shelter's adotiion packets!

Thanks everyone for posting about the types of items they seem like obnes I would be interested in trying.
