I actually don't have a problem with this at all. We are getting cut pricing every day for being a member. I think they give us quite a bit for being members. How easily we forget the specials they do have for us.

The problem isn't so much that it was a 28.6% off sale instead of the 50% off sale that was advertised -- It's that non-members got a much better deal. If the sale was 28.6% off for members, it should have been 28.6% off for everyone.

28.6% off of 9.99 is $7.13.
28.6% off of 19.99 is $14.27.

That (or close to it -- e.g. $6.99 and $13.99) is what the price for non-members should have been.

Otherwise why stay a member when it's cheaper to keep a list of games you might like and wait until Big Fish has one of their 50% off sales.

I still agree with you Jenny100 but on the flip side I have discovered another advantage of being a member thanks to this other Halloween sale “Spooky” which is good from : The sale will begin on Tuesday, October 30th at 12:00am and end on Wednesday, October 31st at 11:59pm (Pacific Time)..

What I discovered was that I was able to not only buy these games at $3.05 CDN. but I also received a Punch for each game, since I bought 3 games at this price I received 3 Punches and I bought a CE game at the regular Club Member price which gave me another 3 Punches and therefore filing my Card which gives me a Free Game coupon, so all in all a very good deal which is not available to Non Club members.

But I would still like to see their advertisement change to: You could save UP TO 50% for argument sakes and of course I would not say NO to a further promotional discount for their Club members.
