Chess House has tiered promo codes running across music, games and movies, starting with the $125 off code for orders over $750. These fixed discounts reward bigger baskets, but the choice between them depends on how much you plan to spend. There's also a 10% off storewide code that may save you more on smaller orders.
On a $30 order: The $5 off code for orders over $25 gives you a $5 saving. The 10% off storewide code takes 10% off your $30 basket, saving you $3, so the $5 off code wins.
On a $60 order: The $15 off code for orders over $50 gives you a $15 saving. The 10% off storewide code saves you $6, so the $15 off code is better.
On a $130 order: The $25 off code for orders over $120 saves you $25. The 10% off storewide code saves you $13, so the $25 off code is the choice here.
On a $400 order: The $50 off code for orders over $350 gives you a $50 saving. The 10% off storewide code saves you $40, so the $50 off code is better.
On a $800 order: The $125 off code for orders over $750 saves you $125. The 10% off storewide code saves you $80, so the $125 off code delivers the bigger discount.
For first time customers: If you are new to Chess House, the 10% off first purchase code saves you 10% on your order at checkout, which may beat the tiered codes on smaller baskets. On a $100 first order, for example, you would save $10 with the first purchase code versus the $5 off code for orders over $25. On a $300 first order, the $25 off code for orders over $120 saves you $25 while the first purchase code saves $30, so the first purchase code wins.
To choose between the codes, work out your basket total and use whichever code leaves you with the lowest final price. The tiered codes cannot be combined with other promotions, so pick one code and apply it at checkout. Orders of $75 or more qualify for free shipping, which stacks with any code you choose. You can also check whether specific items like the Millennium Chess Computer or chess sets are on sale, since those have their own discounts that run alongside the codes.
