    I actually got my Dec 2016 book finished in time for this current sale. Admittedly I have done little but scrap and drink iced coffee for the past 3 or 4 days. But...now I have the FREEPAGES coupon and the SAVE40 coupon and the SHIP39 for free shipping but how to stack them??? All are good until midnight tonight July 24.

    OK, I tried just one more way before I finished this post and GOT IT!!!

    Enter code 1 and hit enter and that discount will take effect. Do NOT hit ORDER!
    Enter code 2 etc
    Enter code 3 etc

    YAY!!!!! My 64 page book went from $170.75 down to $44.51. Even the tax goes down because the main price goes down so much.

    What a great final price!

    When I ordered my last book I had the same deals as you. The free shipping code was what won me over to try the lay-flat page option. (I felt like I could justify their price cuz I was saving on shipping.) After seeing @LynnG Lynn's video with her gorgeous album's lay-flat pages, it seemed like the perfect chance to try them myself. I like the look of them, and my pages don't have that annoying trimming issue they've had in the past (that I griped about last month).

    Anyway, good job finishing in time to take advantage of the deals!

    I did the same thing, Maureen! @cookingmylife

    I ordered two different books. The first one was a 12x12 deluxe lay flat with 85 pages and the price went from $297.13 to $96.28 and then the other one was the same size with 109 pages and went from $351.25 to $83.45.

    Now I just need to get my ducks in a row so I have my layouts organized for the next free pages sale!

    Good for you @gonewiththewind !!! You're a :goldstarsstar!

    I'm going to get going on another one and upload my pages as I get them done AND start by naming them with Day x Date as I did this time. Then, once I had my final print pages I added page 1, page 2 etc in front of that name. That really helped me sort them at Shutterfly.

    @Tree City I think I may try the lay flat with that extra 40% off everything if they have all three coupons available next time.

    Anyone have an idea as to how soon that will be??

    I think they do it every month or two months? I can't remember exactly but I should start keeping track!

    The unlimited extra pages is definitely the best deal! It's a new sale they started late last year and so far they've run it once a month in 2018. They run the 40% and 50% off pretty frequently and will often send you a 40% off coupon if you leave a project in your cart for a few days. The free shipping code is active most of the time.

    Another tip: All those freebies they offer STACK!

    My mom asked me to make a book for my grandma's birthday, which meant we would automatically be spending over the $39 minimum for free shipping (but barely with the awesome code stacking), so I used their weekend freebie promo, plus codes I'd received from retail partners (Coke, Destination Maternity, Kellogg's Family Rewards, etc.), and for $51 I got:
    • 10x10 photo book with extra pages
    • 78 4x6 photo prints
    • 2 small luggage tags
    • 2 pet bandanas
    • 16x20 photo print
    • key ring
    • set of 2 folders
    • notepad
    • 2 pencil cases
    • reusable shopping bag
    • 3 notebooks
    • 2 sets of mix & match stationery
    • 1 set address labels
    • 21 birth announcements

    So hang on to all those promo codes, ladies!

    First off WOW, you got a real haul! I had no idea you could stack the freebies on top of the coupon codes! I thought you could only do 3 codes per order, and those freebies are usually a code. But now I'm going to basically pile everything I can into my cart and see what happens lol! :) Thanks for the tip!
