Origin $20 off coupon [Expired - EA states they're honoring games]

Incognito mode? Make sure you are not logged in. Go to cart and make sure you don't see any "credit card" section. Log in after you're on checkout.
Wasn't using incognito mode in Chrome, no. Used CCleaner to wipe all the browser data though. Still can't get it to work in IE, I enabled InPrivate mode and went to the origin store, put the 2 items in the cart, used the code and the prices switch to $0.00, login and then the prices go back to normal. Reusing the code after I've logged in gives an invalid code error.

They can remove them from your account, but most Origin games aren't tied to the service once installed, for the most part.

Seems like that's definitely the case with some of them. I just attempted to uninstall the Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning demo through the Origin client and all it did was open up the standard Windows "Programs and Features" list so I could find it and remove it myself.

Put one item in the cart, use the code, login, then add more crap is how I did it.

They can still take them, and then it is slightly more inconvenient to uninstall them.

How would they take them if they're in your C drive/harddrive? Worse comes to worse there are exe's you could download but I don't know if that would count as piracy(if it does I don't condone that sorta activity).

Same here.

And I just got my confirmation e-mail.

EA, you just went up a few notches in my book (even if you fucked up to do it ;P)

I can't believe this is still going. Other stores have had similar glitches, and they were fixed within an hour.

EA might of seen the traffic and were so excited that Origin was getting the same amount of activity as Steam that they don't care if people are getting their products for free.

Is it just me, or is the store dead? Also, Steam should give us these deals every once in a while.

If someone can get me command and conquer red alert 3 and its dlc, ill be happy!

Did you try to different work arounds? Different browser, ipad/phone, clear cookies, logout of everything EA?
 
Damn... I was so close to checking out when I noticed that the code was no longer stacking. Feels bad man. Still, a free game is a free game.

Unless you don't happen to live in the US.

Steam wins that by default but let's not get crazy, EU isn't getting much love from Steam either. Now GoG, that's a service I'd put way above others when it comes to offering similar services and prices regardless of your region.
 
Were you guys able to use the coupon multiple times with the same account? I was just able to do use it twice with different accounts in different browsers...but I really don't want to have a ton of different origin accounts
