I look at it this way; we're lucky to get ahold of such a code to use in the first place. If you think about it, those codes aren't really meant for us, they're meant for friends and family of Hasbro employees, so in a way, we're abusing a privilege that isn't meant for us in the first place. With all the complaining, there is a chance that these coupon codes might cease now.
These were sent out to everyone on the HTS mailing list.
Here is the coupon:

So, althis gibberish that I shouldn't use the code is nonsense. HTS sent it to everyone on the mailing list and encouraged those people to pass it on, and those people to pass it on.
So, all you need is a friend (like my many friends here at Jedi Defender) that is on a mialing list.
So, that coupon was never meant to be exclusive.
