This deal is over!

There is a great deal on Fannie May Chocolates!  Use code 10567 to get $25 off any $25 purchase (if you pick something under $25 it will still work).  You will only have to pay $9.25 for shipping!

There are a few things $24.99 or less so you could have 1 lb of chocolates for $9.25.  You can also Create an Assortment of your favorites and get 1 lb for $10.24!

(thanks Amy!!!)

ummm… they look good

Go through ebates and get 8% cash back (thanks Tegan!)

Update: You will see the discount as the very last step in ordering.  Shipping does vary based on where you live (it was $7.25 for me :) )

      JUST WHAT I NEEDED!! YOU ARE AWESOME!!

      • Melissa Herndon

        check your credit card account. they charged me the full 32.24 even though the order screen said it took the 25.00 off.

    • Sarah

      thank you thank you. just completed my order using the code! getting a christmas present for just shipping costs!

    • Alisa

      I just sent some to my Aunt and Uncle.What a great way to send something of great quality and cheap!! Thank you!!

    • http://misscoupondiva.blogspot.com Dee

      Just ordered some for my Son’s Birthday Next week! Shipping was $9.25, but still worth it for these yummy looking chocolates!!

    • Tegan

      We can get 8% cash back using either Mr Rebates or Ebates. I am opting for the Holiday Favors gift boxes at $7.99 each. These will be nice little treats in addition to any present that people already have planned. Item # is 99182.

      Thank you for the deals alert :)

    • http://jaimerossandreid.blogspot.com Jaime

      I just ordered the Chocolate Mousse cake to be delivered right before Xmas to mom’s house, which is where we will be. Now we will have a yummy dessert and did not have to bake or transport it!

    • Laura

      I was going to add that shipping is actually $9.25, not $7.25, but still a great deal! I ordered a nice assortment for my grandfather who loves chocolate.

      Thanks for the info Jenny! :)

      • Heather

        It must vary by price/product/zipcode. It was $7.25 for me.

    • dawn

      Does anyone remember when it updated the price? I just went on to make a purchase and added the code and it stated it added a $25 off coupons but didn’t change my total cost. I didn’t want to put any of my credit card info in and be charged the full cost. If someone know, I would love to send a chistmas gift to a dear friend. Thank you.

      • Beverly B

        It had me put my billing info first, then on the next page it showed the discount on the same page as asking for my CC info.

      • Trina

        It will show the final price before you have to put your card # in. You should be ok.

    • Krista

      You can also use code 10517 for free shipping for orders over $30!!! Or 10517 for a free gift with a $30+ purchase. Jenny, you are awesome!

      • Tanya

        Were you able to use both codes? I keyed the $25 off code and then the free shipping but it looks like I can’t use both?

      • Susan

        it doesn’t say anything about a free gift when I do this only free shipping

        • Tanya

          it said free shipping and then when you continue it shows you a free small box of chocolates. if you keep that at 0 then you can choose free shipping

    • Christy

      I cost me $10.24 for a custom box, but still a good deal.

      • Christy

        Will it let you do a second order using that code?

        • Krista

          You can use the code multiple times!

    • Jennifer G

      Thanks so much. I ordered 3 seperate orders . I bought $75 worth of chocolates to give to my kids teachers as presents and only paid for shipping. That’s a great deal and gift!

      Thanks for the great tip

      • Beverly B

        Will they really let you use the code more than once?

        • Jennifer G

          I made 3 seperate transactions and will have 3 shipping expenses but still worth it!

    • Jennifer C.

      I think the shipping is 9.25 if you order something over 25.00, 7.25 if it is under. I had two different orders and that was how it worked out.

    • Connie

      I just tried to do this and it told me the code is invalid. Any advice?

      • Lisa

        I just ordered and it worked fine. $24.99 cake, shipped for only 9.51 (tax and shipping)

    • http://mckinneyliving.blogspot.com Heather

      When I try to use it, it tells me the code is only valid on purchases of $39 or more? Has anyone else run into this? What a wonderful deal – I have a few out-of-towners I’d love to send these to!

      • Krista

        Make sure to use code 10567, my defaulted to 10005 (giving me the same error) and I had to go back to change it!

    • Elizabeth S

      You can use the code more than once if you are willing to pay separate shipping & handling. & it was $7.95 shipping for me. Thanks so much for the tip.

    • Kelly

      Thank you!!! I was able to send 1 pound chocolates to my husband’s grandparents for $7.57!

    • Rae

      Just ordered four presents – thanks so much for the link! I hope they will process all three orders with that code. I wish my Fresh Rewards (800flowers reminder sign up) from last month would show up! That would be another $20 to spend.

      • Sarah

        mine hasnt shown up either! i emailed customer service about it this am. I havent gotten a response back yet though.

        • Melissa Herndon

          check your credit card account. They charged me the full 32.24 even though the confirmation said it took off the 25.00

    • Ginnie

      Great deal! I used it twice to get christmas gifts.. 15.90 for two gifts not bad! !!

      Thanks!

    • Elizabeth

      THANK YOU JENNY!!! Just checked the in-laws off my shopping list!

    • Chelsea

      What a deal! Thanks! I just sent a customized assortment to my mom for under $10!

    • Christine

      I got the 2 gallon popcorn tin! Yeah

    • Jennifer

      Thanks, Jenny! Fannie Mae is my mom’s favorite candy. I bought her some while in Chicago last year. This is such a great deal!

    • Stacey

      Sweet! Got the boyfriend’s parents gift! :) Might think about ordering more at this price. hehe Thanks!!

    • Lindsey

      Just wanted to let everyone know, I ordered the truffles for my wedding in April from Fannie May – They are absolutely fantastic! They taste BETTER than they look ! (I know thats hard to believe!)

    • ashley

      Awesome Jenny!

    • Michelle in Martinez

      I keep getting this error message:
      This form couldn’t be processed due to following reasons:
      Error during shopping cart recalculation occured.

      this just isn’t my day!

      • Jenny

        I did read that you can’t have any sale merchandise in your cart. Could that be it?

        • Michelle in Martinez

          well, i selected the create an assortment that you suggested. i will try to take it out and get something different. maybe that’s the problem?

          • Jennifer

            Had the same error message….Went back to the beginning and started again and it worked the second time

        • Michelle in Martinez

          now it says this:
          The promotion code you entered is valid, but has a minimum purchase amount of $1.00 for non-sale priced items.

          the create your assortment is only 99 cents. the site is moving so slowly, i will try again later with a different order. thanks for sharing this!

    • Jeanne

      Not sure how to use more then one code…doesn’t show both discounts

    • Heidi

      This is wonderful! Thanks so much!!!

    • April

      Anyone else finding the website running really slow?

    • ashley

      I’m getting the shopping cart message error over and over again. Their site must be swamped!

    • ashley

      Well, it took 4 tries to order it, but I finally got my pound of chocolate for only 7.25!! Great gift!

    • Cynthia

      I am delighted to find that they are listed on freeshipping.com. If you click through their site, you can get your shipping refunded, up to $10.

    • Stephanie

      So how can you get $25 off $25 purchase AND free shipping?

    • Sarah

      Worked for me after about 10 tries…They must be overloaded.

    • ashley

      ^^ It wouldn’t let me use both codes, I was only able to use the $25 off $25 code. When I tried toenter the free shipping code, the $25 code was taken off!

    • Jeanne

      Just talked to customer service about an order that I just placed. Wasn’t sure if it had charged my credit card or not due to a error message on final page. They told me that they are having problems with the payment and they are not sure if the orders that are being placed right now will take or not and to call back in two and half hours (5:30 pm) and they will be able to tell me then. They only update their database every four hours..

      • Jeanne

        So I wanted to place another order so I would just called to place an order and when I got to the promotion code the rep came back and told me that 10567 was an illegal code that got posted on the web and that they are not taking it. SO it will be interesting to see if my first purchase went through along with everyone elses. Has anyone else been told this?

    • Stephanie

      Oh that is awful! I have been trying for an hour (while multi-tasking) trying to use this stupid site to get an order of chocolate. Darn it!

      • April

        same here!

    • Jessica

      I was told by customer service that they won’t be honoring this coupon the lady told me they would not charge my card but to check back in 4 hours to make sure it wasn’t charged! Bummer that was a great deal.

      • Jeanne

        same with me

    • Stephanie

      You mean they won’t honor the $25 of $25 purchase??

      • Jeanne

        nope…its not a real code or a code that wasn’t suppose to be given out…either way its a no go!!!

    • Stephanie

      How is the code illegal if it actually works. The $25 off is showing and working for people. That makes NO sense at all.

      • Jeanne

        I’m not sure but I have called three times now (in three different departments) and all three have told me that they will not be honoring this code and when their systems are updated (which is every four hours) the orders with this code will not go through. I am sure that is thousands of orders so it will be interesting to see what happens….

        • Sarah

          do you think that means new orders- those placed after the system updates or previous orders that have already gone through?

          • Jeanne

            I bet if you received an email confirming your order and your card has been charged then they will have to honor it….I placed mine a hour ago and did not receive a confirmation of my order even through I have the receipt printed of my final order…..I guess the ones who got it were the lucky ones….I guess you can’t always get the great deals….still love the site

            • Sarah

              true jeanne, true.

    • Sarah

      i will be highly irritated if they cancel my order. I placed it two hours ago and have already been sent an email confirmation for the order. And btw- cards already been charged. Hmm.

    • http://www.mrmedsaver.com Amy

      Has the promo code changed? It keeps saying it has expired.

    • Kati

      I keep getting an “invalid” code message. Maybe they already disabled it?

    • ashley

      Wow…. this will be interesting! I’ve already received an email confirmation of my order and everything. Plus, on my bank’s website I can see where my card has already been charged, the amount of $7.25. If they don’t honor the code let’s hope they don’t charge me full price!!! I’ll be mad if they cancel the order, but I will be even more angry if they attempt to charge full price!

      • Aymie

        I got an email confirmation stating I was charged $7.25 but my bank account shows they charged me $32.24.
        I am very irritated.
        I was thinking they would have honored it and the lady told me no… does anyone else have this problem?

        • Melissa Herndon

          they charged my credit card 32.24 even though the confirmation said they charged me 7.25 on the order confirmation. not happy

    • Kimberly

      I think it is a dead deal, I keep getting invalid code although initially it looked fine. Ah well, Nana will just have to be satisfied with that puzzle after all.

      • T’fani

        The orders placed will be charged back the $25 (that is what the person I spoke with informed me) – call and check on your order and make sure they do not intend to charge the additional $25

    • Michelle in Martinez

      if this was in “illegal” code, where did it originate from?

      • marina

        I’m finding it hard to believe that this was an “illegal” code because their website accepted and recognized it. Maybe they didn’t anticipate so many people getting free chocolate. LOL Damage control!!

    • Lara

      That stinks….. it is the perfect gift for my grandma but I am too cheap to acutally pay full price… now back to the drawing board…

    • Christine A

      they told me after I called to check that nothing with this code is going to be processed>>>> hmmmmm

    • Jess

      I just checked my credit card on line and it is being charged $32.34. I have an e-mail conformation for $7.25. I guess that I should call…..

      • Aymie

        Yes call I had the exact same problem… She canceled my order… They are quick to charge and slow to return the money! (It takes 7-10 business days to get refunded but only a few minutes to get charged!)

    • http://proudpatriot07.wordpress.com AmyLauren

      It won’t let me use the code at all. Tells me it’s expired :(.

      • http://proudpatriot07.wordpress.com AmyLauren

        And now I see everyone’s comments that it’s a dead code, after I’ve picked out something to buy and placed it in my cart :(. Oh well, won’t buy from them…

    • Lil

      I also have been trying to place order for over an hour. I didn’t see where to put the code in. Both the key code area and the gift/coupon area said invalid. Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong? Thanks

      • Jamie

        It’s a dead code now, but if you click on the new deal on the home page you can still get the chocolates for half. If you spend $29 or more then send you a free 1 lb. The create your own assortment has a $32 option. You don’t get to pick your free 1 lb, they add that once you put the code 10633 in. I did go thru ebates to get 8% back. Hope that helps.

    • Sally

      Well if this is the way they are going to treat people I don’t care how good their candy is I will no longer be ordering anything from them. This is just very wrong of them.

      • Mina

        I understand your disappointment in missing out on an expected “deal”, but I don’t think they are treating people badly. If the code was only issued to a customer who met specific qualifications, and was never intended to be released or used by the general public, then they are under no obligation to take honor the code for anyone other than the parties for which it was intended. It doesn’t matter if their computers were not able to catch misuse until they were bombarded by them.

        It’s not that most of the people who were using it were intentionally doing anything wrong. The person who released the private code (probably thinking they were doing others a favor), or prodded the system to find a glitch, is the one responsible for creating unreasonable expectations in several thousand people. If the company chooses not to give away possibly hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of their products because one person did something fraudulent, that’s their choice. As long as any charges are promptly refunded, nobody trying to use that code lost anything. The company still has the expense of the manhours of sorting out the mess created by whoever released that code.

        These things happen. When we read about deals like this online, it can be difficult to tell if they are legitimate. The news becomes viral very quickly, and can seem like a true offer, even when it’s not. I know Jenny tries to screen deals as well as can before she posts them, but occasionally some bad apples still slip by. It’s up to each reader to use his own best judgment and to understand that sometimes things just don’t work the way we hope – especially the super deals.

    • Toni

      I will be so ticked if I don’t get my gift! Its for a birthday dang it! :)

      Should we call customer service or just wait to send an email? If you got a confirmation email, then they have to honor it right????

      Basically, I need to know if I need to figure out another gift or if the one I just ordered will actually be shipped at my quoted price…grr!!

      • Aymie

        They dont have to honor it. It was a mistake on their part, yes, but they are going to be losing a lot of money with all the people that had this happen to…

    • beth

      spent the last 2 hours (off & on) trying to make this work, but I keep getting an error message

    • Sarah

      Looks like this is a dead deal. Bummer!!

    • ashley

      Legally, I wonder if they can change the amount charged to my card? I have the receipt that shows I only agreed to 7.25….

      • Sarah

        im interested in knowing the same thing- i have a receipt too. im checking my bank now.

      • keb2009

        if they are like most reputable online companies they will cancel the order completely if they can’t complete it at said price. worse case the $7.95 or whatever will only memo post to your account and will eventually fall off.

        • ashley

          It looks like they must be canceling the orders…I’m guessing. I swear the 7.25 had been pulled from the account earlier. But, now nothing has been pulled from the count so I bet they are canceling it.

          • Melissa Herndon

            they charged the full amount on my credit card of 32.24 instead of the 7.25 it said on my order confirmation. not happy

    • Lisa

      I can’t get anything to work. Oh well.

    • Jennifer

      Just called and they said it was a fradulant code and they are trying to resolve their system. We will see ladies.

    • Jess

      I called and they are honoring it. So I am getting it for 7.24 (took of all $25 when I called)

      • Aymie

        Consider yourself very lucky. Called twice spoke to two different people both said that they have been bumbarded with calls and cannot honor it because it was a fraudulent code. I would double check they dont charge you full price…

        • Melissa Herndon

          they went back and charged my credit card the full 32.24 instead of the 7.25. not happy

    • http://southernsavers Jenn

      I just got off the phone with them. I had made 4 separate orders this afternoon at 1:30 and got an email conformation for all 4. However, when I called to check the man told me that I would be charged the full amount for 3 of them or I could cancel. (Only 1 deal per customer.) He did credit me $25.00 for 1. So I got one box of chocolates for $7.25!! But I would have liked all four! One is better than none!

    • Amy

      I just called and they said my first order went through for $10.24, the second order is not in the system yet. When i submitted the second order, the site was very slow and I kept getting an error, I cofirmed the order for $12, but when I got the confirmation it was $37!! So I agree to $12, but they can charge you $37???

      She stated it is “one per person, per day” and that is what most companies “do” or it would be “too good to be true”. Customer Service at it’s highest I guess. I am NOT paying $37 for an order of chocolate, so i have to call back later tonight for a 4th time to try and get this resolved. What a pain!

      I asked about the code being invalid or fraudlant and they would not comment on anyone else’s order or comments on a website. She said my order was $10.24 and that’s that. Guess I will have to really watch my bank account. Boo to Fannie May!

    • Ginnie

      I had to cancel both of my orders. Charged me full price. I called and they said that the code was not from them, it was a made up code that was put out. But wonder why it worked on the site.
      So they canceled my order. I will have to watch my bank account to see if they refund the amounts taken out.

    • Traci

      I just noticed it said “dead” instead of “deal”. ;-)

      Sorry this did not work out…

    • sarah

      i just went online to the website and signed in under the account i had to create to order this in the first place and my order is still there and is still showing the discount. check your account with them and maybe youll get lucky.

    • Kristen P

      I never got my order placed, but did get as far as entering my information (mailing address and email) and I left the boxes checked that I wanted to received future offers – well, a couple of hours ago, I received an email from them about dancing chocolates and free shipping, but when I looed at the fine print at the bottom there was a code for $25 off any order for the next 3 days – now this is a different code so I’m assuming that it a one time use (maybe the one here was originally and that’s why all the trouble) and i’m not going to post it – however, I’;m guessing that if you sgn up to receive their emails you might get one too – I might get some cheep chocolates after all :)

      • Amy B.

        My email says the same thing. When you try to apply the code it says the purchase must be $40 in non-sale items.

        • Kristen P

          oh well – I hadn’t tried it yet to find out – thanks

    • Amy

      I just called customer service for the 5th time – this time i got yet another response. The code is for testing purposes only and should have never been released. Apparently at 6am this morning communication went out to all employees and the other 4 customer service reps I talked to didn’t get THAT memo!!! I am still showing a deduction from my bank account – how lovely that I will now need to watch my account like crazy for the next month to make sure they don’t charge the other $37 to my account come 12/14 when i wanted the other order to ship. argh! I will never do business with Fannie May after this disaster!

    • Samy

      I just ordered online and code was expired. I am very disappointed. I will call them tomorrow morning to let them know I got discount code on this website just today and it already doesn’t work?????????

    • cindy

      Spoke to a manager. They will not be honoring any of the coupons with that code. It seems that several accounts were charged full price. She stated that you are more than welcome to cancel order. They will not be refunding any money. They will cancel order if you call before it goes out. I’m not sure how they send a receipt for one thing and then charge your account another without your knowledge.

    • Rae

      Boo. Had $90 in pending charges on my CC this morning – spoke to “Lecretia” in customer service who is refunding my $$. She gave me the same “that’s not our code” line. Oh, well!

    • Rae

      23 minutes later I finally am told that my credit card will be refunded. Claims shipment has already gone out (although their website says differently) and I was told to refuse it (but the CSR was not sure if signature is required, so it may get dumped on my porch). So their CSR time, plus double shipping and restocking costs on Fannie May’s end….seems like they would just take my $7.25 and be done with it. Ditto the above comments about NEVER buying their chocolate!!
