I'm pretty ticked off. I subscribed back in October and received 2 issues so far but they always come 2-3 weeks past the first allowable use date since I live in Hawaii.  Granted I can't complain about most things living here, but this week was special with Batman AC going on sale to $10 after coupon in addition to the others for $5.  I'm just mad that i won't be able to maximize the use of the coupons since I get them late in  the month.  The store reps won't allow use of the in-store copies either making us buy a new copy if we want to use the coupon which defeats the purpose of having the subscription.

I'm sorry to hear this. For 2 months I got them late and feel your pain. The last 2 issues came on time so it fixed itself for me.

I would love them to just link the coupons to GCU memberships where we could print the coupons in the mag, but have the coupons be a unique barcode so that they couldn't be abused.

Also a great member, enuf, posted in the ideax board about using them online. They judge interest by number of kudos.

I live in Minnesota and get them a couple weeks late often. Most of the time it hasn't mattered too badly. However I do want to state that I got this month's issue just a couple days after the coupons became valid. And it actually mattered this month due to limited time sales (Arkham City is $30 until tomorrow, so $10 with coupon, for example).

Well, I am actually glad you brought this up because I have some really good news... @Gamer is going digital!

This kind of snuck up on me so I apologize for not having something posted sooner but come next week you'll be able to choose between receiving a digital or physical version of @Gamer.  If you choose digital, that will of course bypass all of your problems with not receiving it on time.  Coupons will be included and everything.

I'm sure you're all going to have a ton of questions so I hope to have more on this posted early next week in our Best Buy Gaming News section and likely on the Reward Zone Gamers Club board.  If you're already subscribed to @Gamer, you'll also be receiving an email soon explaining this in more detail.  Stay posted!
