25% off Estes rockets 19-20 March (excludes Falcon 9)

[bad_idea]

Estes are having a two-day sale with 25% off rockets, excluding Falcon 9.

With AC Supply giving 30% off most things, that wouldn't be so interesting except for three things:

1. Estes' free shipping threshold is only $50 vs. $100 at AC Supply
2. The launch2023 coupon which gives 25% off stacks, giving 43.75% off total
3. If you estimate shipping before applying a coupon like launch2023, free shipping remains even if the coupon drops the total under $50.

Something to note:
Last year, launch2022 was reported by some to stop working after a few tries, so it might be worth keeping launch2023 in reserve for a bigger sale. Also, Estes could at any time decided to stop allowing stacking, to discontinue the lauch2023 coupon, or to stop giving free shipping based on pre-discount price.

shipping always kills it for me.

I think Estes changed their policy to make it harder (or impossible) to use 2 codes at once. However, it appears at least one code will stack on top of a current promotion, like the one going on now.

I used the "launch2023" code moments ago for an additional price reduction.

That kit was on my last order as it was on my wish list.

Only new rocket kit I really want is a Doorknob, and they're OOS. The rest of the indicentals don't come up to $50 to get to free shipping.

Same here.

On the other hand, I keep thinking that a Doorknob built with a PNC-80K and BT-80 would be a heck of a lot cheaper and offer somewhat better performance.

When does the 3" Goblin come out? That's what I'm waiting for. I think not until June, dammit....

Rocket sale extended, but discount down to 15%.
