I would check prices carefully on this one. The 40% off is based on the MSRP. From what I see the 40% off prices are a few bucks more than Amazon. The previous sales have been XX% off of the listed price and you had to enter a code (as you are well aware
). This one's just a regular, everything reduced sale.
I too was excited when I got the email. I typically buy the more expensive sets at this sale, saving a lot of money. This time around I was disappointed.
