Full-Time Minister Discount

[TYA]

I'm seeing the following message when trying to apply this discount for the Holman Bible Atlas (and I saw it before for other items).  Does the Full-time Minister Discount only apply to certain items, or to all Accordance items?

 

And on a related note, regarding the Clergy Gift Cards that are now on sale, could those be redeemed for purchases in addition to the Full-time Minister Discount, or what that be considered stacking discounts?  Thanks

The ministerial discount does not apply to sale items. In most cases you cannot stack discounts. I have seen that message many a time.

The only time it would apply is when someone gives you a gift card and you redeem it. I was told this by a sales rep. Minister’s discount + gift card. Especially now, that those who buy it for you get a 20% off discount.

I was also told by another rep that they didn’t understand why they had it set up the way they do now — referring to the weird rule that if you buy a gift card and decide to spend it on yourself the 20% off discount doesn’t apply.

I agree is a weird rule — it’s “Clergy’s” Month and clergymen/women are the ones that are the majority who buy Accordance, not lay people. Since it’s “our month” we should get that extra stacked discount even if we buy a gift card for ourselves.

But anyway, that’s what I’d do to sell more, but I don’t make the rules. So it’s ok

Thanks Michael.  But the Holman Bible Atlas isn't on "sale" now--at least as far as I understand.

 

Update: I just tried a mock purchase of this item again, adding the Full-time minister discount manually again from the website, and this time the shopping cart seems to be applying it.  Not sure the discrepancy before, but thanks all for the answers.
