Basically 15%

Thanks. They are still pretty good although $5 off $50 is long gone.

If $5 off $50 is gone, what are the chances of $20 off $50 coming back?

That might have been the best coupon in Tower history.

Very true, but that might be an indication of why they almost went out of business...

No that is an indication of desperately needing to move product no one wanted at the price point they asked.

The problem with Tower aside from the fact that I get charged sales tax (around 8%) is that there isn't really anything for me to use the coupons on anymore.

Most kits disallow coupons now (at least for crawlers)
Tamiya prices are no longer worthwhile
They don't really carry anything from the smaller manufacturers like Amain or RPP.

I find myself ordering from Amain and RPP more now, because they carry more of the specialty stuff. So I just throw in stuff that I normally would've purchased from Tower like Pro-Line products, etc.
