I don't believe that this was intentional, but the 70% off everything in the shops ends up only being 58% off.
Let me explain.
So currently, everyone has the 40% off everything (St. Patrick's Sale)
A few people (or everyone, I have no idea) received a 30% extra off including the original 40% off.
This would =70% off total, or would it...
Let's use an example, A rank upgrade from Legend to Vast
The original 40% off of the current price, 40$, would lower the price to a cool $24.
And This 70% off promised by who ever put the advert on the tab button should lower the price to about $12.
However, the coupon takes 30% off the total bill... after the original 40%.
This makes the price now $16.80, a total of $4.80 difference.
And after doing the math, the total sale price is 58% off.
Was this over looked? Who knows.
Thanks for reading this.

It has nothing to do with what's on the shops, although it includes the shops.
You clearly didn't get the coupon, then.

Still works when i put it in the shop
Yea i used it to get vast. So what it does, it basically doesn't give u 70% off since there was already 40% off it gives u 30% off to equal 70%. It wouldn't make sense to add the already given 40% off and the awarded 70% because that would end up giving u 110% which makes no sense because everything would end up being free. Lol this was a fun conversation :)

The reported 70% only taxes 58% off, since you get 30%off of 40%. Not the actual 70%

You you payed an extra $4.80 or more depending on your previous rank. sorry :(
I upgraded from vip to vast with this discount. It really doesn't make a difference I saved about 35 dollars so I'm happy i got it on sale. 4.80 doesn't really make a difference.

You are right, It does only give you 58% off and not a total 70% I did the math on google and I get the same results its not that big of a difference but I mean you could buy like a 10 piece and a medium drink with an extra 4.80$
