Awesome code! I just picked up a Thermarest NeoAir, ULA circuit, Tarptent Scarp 1 and a WM summerlite and saved myself a bunch!
Mar 2, 2009 at 7:18 pm #1482139So where did these codes come from?
Mar 2, 2009 at 7:22 pm #1482143Wait, they have these already?
I can't find them on the site….
Mar 2, 2009 at 7:33 pm #1482149I think Ashley is pulling your chain- they don't carry ULA or Henry's tarptent, and they are out of summerlite bags. The NeoAir isn't out yet. I looked for it last week and it was nowhere to be found.
Mar 2, 2009 at 7:43 pm #1482153Ashley is pure evil. :)
Mar 2, 2009 at 7:52 pm #1482157Ha, yes, sorry I was being evil. I mean ironic. That gear is on my "most wanted" list and of course not available at backcountry. The neoair should be in april, but no doubt this code will have been shut down by then. Whoever finds the next one should keep it hush-hush for a month or so ;-)
BTW, backcountry hasn't sold out of summerlites. They just don't carry them for some reason. At least they haven't for the past year or so. Kinda strange, because I would think they would be a big seller.
Especially at 40% off ;-)
Mar 2, 2009 at 8:15 pm #1482173the new code worked for me using ie but the interresting thing is its case sensitive
i had to type the code in in capital letters
either way $83.00 for a lightyear 40 down bag is worth a little extra typing
actually it was purchased for a friend but a good deal either way

Mar 2, 2009 at 9:41 pm #1482199Thanks guys. New member here and glad I found these forums. Lots of good info. Rei is also having a 20% member sale + 4.99 flat rate shipping so between these two sites, it'll be a big help getting me outfitted on the cheap. Just bought REI QD T2 tent from REI and a Big Agnes Horse Thief. It's going to be hard not to visit again.
Mar 2, 2009 at 10:20 pm #1482206Well, another successful foray–a Western Mountaineering Versalite. In Regular, they only had right zip, but at that price I'll learn to use it. I considered the no-payments-for-90-days, but was uncertain if that involved interest charges.
Mar 3, 2009 at 5:10 am #1482237Purchased 2 Montbell bags.
Wife will probably make me stay out side from now on!
(fingers crossed)Mar 3, 2009 at 5:19 am #1482239This thing has to quit soon!
I have only so much will-power!
PLEASE, can everyone refrain from using the word "Versalite" in this post! :-)
Mar 3, 2009 at 6:15 am #1482245Code worked just fine for me last night. Picked up a Marmot Precip to test the waters. Going to dive in head first today,after I make my list.Thanks for the tip!
Mar 3, 2009 at 6:53 am #1482248Versalite, versalite. I have no use for a heavy bag, although I'd love to have another WM. My Megalite gets here Thursday. Wish they had something lighter.
Mar 3, 2009 at 8:44 am #1482270Fellows,
Code 3M5-1-7XKL5 is now invalid (at least for me).I'm trying to buy another 52 sleeping bags, 75 stoves and 2,163 pairs of smartwool socks and, darn it, I can't get that discount.
So – what's the next valid code?
Thanks,
Marty CoopermanMar 3, 2009 at 9:12 am #1482276Joe,
You've been wanting one of those Wm's for a while now…..congrats.
I'm pretty much all set for now….though my brother is coming to town and wants to go backpacking, so I might just HAVE to buy some gear for when he's here. hahah.
Easily justified.
Mar 3, 2009 at 9:17 am #1482279Yeah, I'm pretty pumped. Have to sell my Hightail now.
Mar 3, 2009 at 9:23 am #1482280Michael, not to worry. I think I got the last regular size you-know-what, which I only did to remove it as a source of temptation.
Mar 3, 2009 at 9:34 am #1482284Thank you James! You are my savior! :-)
Mar 3, 2009 at 10:28 am #1482308Crap!!!!! Had been away from the computer for a few days and completely missed out on this And I could have used a few things too. Hopefully a new code pops up soon.
Mar 3, 2009 at 11:04 am #1482318While trying to check out with my cart still open from last night, I was told that there was a website malfunction that has now been fixed.
Mar 3, 2009 at 11:21 am #1482320looks like code: 3M5-1-7XKL5
is no longer valid.i just tried using it a couple minutes ago.

Did you try the latest code Steve O posted? 3M5-1-7XKL5
It worked for me 2 hours ago and now I've got a WM Megalite on its way. I only wish I had jumped on this runaway train when it first started rolling and had gotten an Alpenlite before they sold out.

Paul, I had an open cart for 1 hour while I vacillated between a Megalite and Versalite. When I finally pressed the 'Submit Your Order' button, it registered a whole slew of errors – invalid promotion code, invalid credit card number, etc. I re-entered my credit card info and the order worked just fine.
Mar 3, 2009 at 11:43 am #1482329I can't get the most recent code to work either. Anyone having any luck?
Mar 3, 2009 at 12:18 pm #1482341If I was a betting man – and I am – I would say that this extravaganza is finally over. Did anyone notice that the 10% off promotion is gone also? Nearly everything on the website is back to regular price.
Well it was nice while it lasted.
Mar 3, 2009 at 1:31 pm #1482363Oh Man, I've still got a cart open and I'm addin to it and still giving me discounts…. I can't stop…. this could be it, the finale. Anyone need a WM bag?
